An ultra-modern teen love story. Seventeen-year-old Tim is smitten when he glimpses the girl of his dreams. But who is she? When her name and address falls from her bag, he can't believe his luck. Tim boldly writes to his fantasy woman. But to his surprise, the address belongs to someone else: Amelie. She writes Tim back to say she's hardly the girl he spotted: she's not beautiful, she's two years his senior, and she's as good as engaged. Intrigued by her wit, and pumped by the challenge, Tim tries to convince Amelie to meet him. A series of humorous and sarcastic exchanges begin. Through emails and letters, scratchings on take-out containers, and scrawlings on news clippings, the relationship grows. The unstoppable energy and optimism in the letters are conveyed through the inventive lay-out devoting one page to each message. An Order of Amelie, Hold the Fries is the Griffin and Sabine for teens.… (altro)

Told in a series of written messages (letters, emails, text messages), Tim and Amelie's relationship is slowly revealed. Very well done. A very fast read. Irritatingly, there are no page numbers but the book is very short. Lots of B&W images background Tim and Amelie's correspondence. Think Jolly Postman for the current media saavy teen . . . ( )

By happenstance, 17-year-old Tim gets the name and address of 19-year-old Amelie and begins writing letters to her, begging for a chance to meet her. This book follows their written exchanges as well as other communications between Amelie and her friends and family. This book is a bit of a novelty in that it's an modern-day epistolary novel; its pages consist of 'hand-written' notes, email messages, and texts against backdrops of photographic and drawn images. It's an entertaining enough read, even if Tim is a little creepy stalker-ish and Amelie is selfishly and duplicitously dating two guys at once. This book is a good read if you're looking for something short and light, but it's not particularly anything to write home about or of lasting significance. ( )

The interesting part of this book was the characters. I actually thought the plot was kind of weak and the style was kind of frustrating. However, it was cute. ( )

Can a letter make you fall in love? Tim sees a beautiful woman one day and thinks he's in luck when she drops a piece of paper with a name and address on it. He writes her a letter and isn't discouraged when he discovers the girl he is writing to isn't the girl he saw that day. Letters, e-mails, and texts are sent back and forth as the readers follow along to watch their relationship develop. A very fun read! ( )
