Author of the “charmingly nerve-wracking” (NPR) best-selling Silver Linings Playbook, Matthew Quick exploded into the literary world with his quirky 2008 book about mental illness and love that was adapted into the Academy Award-winning film. His young adult novels Sorta Like a Rockstar, Boy21, and Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock speak to—but never down to—teenage readers. His new book, The Good Luck of Right Now is a funny and inspiring story about family, friendship, grief, and Richard Gere.
