Product Description
The bestselling sequel to ttyl
Told entirely in instant messages, this sequel to the hugely popular ttyl follows Maddie, Zoe, and Angela through the new flirtations, fixations, and frustrations of eleventh grade.
Angela has just found out that her family is moving to El Cerrito, California, and she seriously doesn t know how she ll survive without her best friends. Maddie makes some really bad moves with Clive, a pot-smoking hipster who wants to be friends with benefits. And Zoe finds herself falling for Doug, the sweet poet who has had a crush on Angela forever a crush that Angela has come to count on.
The paperback is timed to release a month before the latest installment in the series, l8r, g8r. Together, the three books about the winsome threesome are a funny, touching chronicle of the rocky road of real friendship bumpy, nutty, and marshmallow-sweet.
Just as satisfying as the first book. Booklist
Totally amazing. Girlslife.com
Will ensure reader investment and generate discussion, both online and off. The Bulletin of the Center for Children s Books

 TTFN BOOK REVIEW November 3, 2008
John Mahoney (Marysville, Washington United States)
The Winsome Threesome is at it again in this funny yet seroius book about love, friendship, and high school. Like the first one, TTFN is written entirely in IM's. It is a very refreshing read from ordinary novels. In TTFN, Angela moves 3,000 miles away, good-girl Zoe gets down and dirty with Angela's ex (while trying to keep it a secret from her) and Maddie gets involved with the wrong crowd, dates "bad boys", and starts smoking pot. Based on this first paragraph, you may think this is an inappropriate book, but it really is not.
After reading the first few pages of this book, I could not put it down! I can relate to this book so well because it reminds me of my best friends and myself. It is about everyday life and what us teenagers have to deal with. TTFN up-to-date with the language of teens nowadays. It is also one of those books that keeps you hanging on, word for word, until the very end. Usually the first book in the series is better than the second one, right? Well that is not true with this book!
I would recommend TTFN to any teenager who is looking for a very realistic (and interesting!) book to read. Another good thing about TTFN is that it is relativley short (230 pages) so you could finish the book in a day if you really wanted too. This novel is exremely juicy so you get your gossip fix without actually talking behind people's backs. After I finished TTFN I was actually sad that I was done reading it, but that just made me want to read the next book, L8R, G8R.
Lots of my friends are lining up to read this book (that's how good it is)! I guarantee it will change the way you read. TTFN is one of the best books I have ever read - great work Lauren Myracle! This definitely deserves five stars!

Open a random page of this book and you are almost certain to read language or descriptions of behaviors that are completely inappropriate for the age group. The language is foul, the situations adult. And I mean _every_ page. Page 174: "u made her glue marshmallows to her nipples?" Page 110: "actually I was wearing my Vandy sweatshirt and I wasn't wearing a bra underneath." And on, and on, and on. This book has no redeeming value what so ever.

Just because some kids do drugs, swear, and have sex does not mean we need to glorify those for all kids. Didn't find anything redeeming enough in the book to pass it on to any teens. It went in the recycling. Hopefully it will do more good made into something else.
I don't like giving a bad review - but felt inclined to in this case.

I bought this book for my daughter only after asking the salesgirl in the store if it was appropriate for a 12 year old, I was assured it was. Last night my daughter came up to me and asked what a bl*wjob was. Apparently this is discussed in the book. Needless to say she will NOT be reading anymore books by this author or in this series

They author have figured out that sex sells, especially to young teen girls. She concocts this IM narrative to capitalize on the trendiness of this mode of communication. The first book was dedicated to "the beer boys". uh, her intended audience is 12-16 year old girls. Hmm, I wonder if this is dedicated to "Rufus, her favorite drug dealer." or "The Ecstacy girls". I know these are real issues not to be avoided but to be brought out into the open. But glamorizing drug use, teen sex etc, is just irresponsible and exploitative. But I am surprised that she hasnt gotten sponsors like Trojan, Budweiser, and the like to boost profits.
