"A turn-up for the books" nghĩa là một sự kiện, tin tức bất ngờ, đặc biệt, không lường trước được.

Ví dụ
Here's a turn-up for the books: far from being contained (bị kìm lại) to battle royale, PUBG Corp is branching (rẽ nhánh) out into narrative titles (thể loại tường thuật), as the company has today unveiled (tiết lộ) its new studio Striking Distance.

In a turn up for the books, the weather forecast is actually looking rather good for the weekend in Newcastle, meaning there should be plenty of sunshine for the Northumberland Plate Festival.

A woman who went to the doctors in Thailand with ear pain discovered to her shock that it was being caused by a lizard living in her ear. That's a turn-up for the books, isn't it?

Luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover’s recent victory in a Chinese court was quite a turn up for the books. It defeated (đánh bại) a Chinese rival (đối thủ) in a case about intellectual (thuộc trí tuệ) property (tài sản) theft (trộm cắp) that related to the design of its Range Rover Evoque SUV. This decision certainly challenges any assumptions (quan điểm giả định) that China is the kind of country where the rule of law exists mainly to serve the one-party state.
