SOLITAIRE by Alice Oseman | Book Trailer

hello. this is a trailer i made for my debut novel 'solitaire'. because why not.

i'll probably be very embarrassed of this in a few weeks' time.

solitaire is a coming-of-age contemporary/realistic YA novel and was first published on the 31st July 2014.

***
My name is Tori Spring. I like to sleep and I like to blog. Last year – before all that stuff with Charlie and before I had to face the harsh realities of A-Levels and university applications and the fact that one day I really will have to start talking to people – I had friends. Things were very different, I guess, but that’s all over now.

Now there’s Solitaire. And Michael Holden.

I don’t know what Solitaire are trying to do, and I don’t care about Michael Holden.
I really don’t.

I remember discovering this book years ago when I was younger and going through a really bad period of depression. Tori made me feel so much less alone and that I had someone I could relate to. Solitaire is a really special book to me for that reason, but I’m glad I don’t relate to Tori in the book anymore :)

I swear, Tori and I are too similar. I emphasize with this character more than any other. Lovely work, Alice.❤️

Not everyone that is smiling is ok.

Overthinking and shutting down is not the answering.

Congrats on a book trailer that captures the vibe of Tori and for kept me reading and makes me fished the book in two days.

Beeing a teenage it not easy but it transformed me in the man I'm. Every struggle I was on, today, is my knowledge for understanding the people around me. Sometimes we just need the other person to be there. To show that we are not alone and that they see us.

Thanks for writing this 💜

Such a beautiful trailer! It's really well made, and it ... Feels like Solitaire? Is that the right way to put it? Idk, it really captures the tone of the book, if that makes any sense at all
Anyway, good job! And thank you for making it!
(I think I'm going to show this to my friends to convince -or force- them to read the book)
