Description

It's time for a new generation of readers to discover the phenomenally bestselling and beloved series, told entirely in messages and texts. With a fresh look and updated cultural references, the notorious list-topping series is ready for the iPhone generation. First published in 2004 (holy moly!), ttyl and its sequels follow the ups and downs of high school for the winsome threesome, three very different but very close friends: wild Maddie (mad maddie), bubbly Angela (SnowAngel), and reserved Zoe (zoegirl). Through teacher crushes, cross-country moves, bossy Queen Bees, incriminating party pics, and other bumps along the way, author Lauren Myracle explores the many potholes of teenagedom with the unflinching honesty and pitch-perfect humor that made this series a staple of young adult literature.

SnowAngel:

hey, mads! first day of 10th grade down the tube-

wh-hoo!

mad maddie:

hiyas, angela. wh-hoo to you too. and yr FB post

made me laugh. that pic of u, me, and zoe at the

beach with our arms around each other? perfect,

perfect, perfect-tho of course it made me sad.

SnowAngel:

did u get the daisy i put in your locker?

mad maddie: i did, and *that* made me happy

mad maddie: what s the story?

SnowAngel:

i just know that the end of the summer always

throws u into a funk, so i wanted to do something to

defunkify u.

mad maddie: u wanted to DEFUNKIFY me?

SnowAngel:

so that s why i gave u the daisy, to remind u of the

beach, and also our park picnics and hanging

out at the pool and going to tuckaway with zoe s

parents. happy, smiley, daisy kinda stuff, u know?

mad maddie: oh. well, thx.

SnowAngel:

cuz even tho school s started, nothing has to

change. u, me, and zoe-we re gonna have a

great year.

mad maddie: r we?

mad maddie: i m already depressed just from watching

everyone compare tans.

SnowAngel:

why did that depress u? ur brown as a berry.

mad maddie:

all day long there was far too much squealing

going on, too much ooo, u look fabulous! and

it s SO good to see u!

SnowAngel:

why is that bad?

mad maddie:

cuz it s so fake. all that clique stuff, i hate it.

i hate feeling like everyone knows the secret

handshake but me.
2

SnowAngel:

at least u and zoe r in the same homeroom. i am

insanely jealous. *shakes fist at sky*

mad maddie: i ll see you in math, tho. whoopee.

SnowAngel:

and thank god all three of us have the same lunch

period. *raises champagne glass* TO THE WINSOME

THREESOME! BFF!

mad maddie: cheers!

SnowAngel:

anyway, it doesn t matter how many secret

handshakes pop up, cuz we ll always have each

other. unlike susie smith-did u hear? all summer she

hung out with catherine and leigh at the piedmont

driving club, but now that school s started, leigh and

catherine have totally dumped her.

mad maddie: what a pisser. susie must be heartbroken.

SnowAngel:

come on, it would suck to have your friends drop u like

that. supposedly leigh wrote an entire blog post about

how susie needs to shave her pubes. isn t that awful?

mad maddie: have u read it?

SnowAngel:

and catherine tweeted the condensed version. so

uncool.

SnowAngel:

(read the tweet. L s blog post? too long.)

mad maddie: too LONG? just like susie s pubes?

mad maddie: my brother s new girlfriend doesn t shave her pits

OR her pubes. he brought her to this family party

at lake lanier last weekend, and she wore a bikini.

SnowAngel:

that s sick

mad maddie:

it was basically like she had a pelt. the pops pulled

me aside and said in this really loud whisper,

guess she forgot to mow the lawn, huh?

SnowAngel:

SICK!!!

mad maddie: he was drunk, of course

SnowAngel:

i could NEVER not shave my pubes. that is just gross.

but even if i did have a pubic hair problem, which i

do not, u and zoe would still luv me, right?
3

mad maddie: hmm . . .

SnowAngel:

i just mean we would never turn on each other for

something stupid.

mad maddie: no, just for something un-stupid.

SnowAngel:

i m serious! ppl always say that high school friendships

don t last, but we re gonna prove them wrong.

mad maddie: right on, sister

SnowAngel:

remember the first day of junior high, when we all

got put in the same PE class? and we had to do

that horrible president s fitness dealie, and ms. cahill

made me do the flexed arm hang even tho i told

her i totally couldn t?

mad maddie:

that wasn t on the first day. that was like a month

into the semester.

SnowAngel:

and my arms gave out before she counted to

three. it was so humiliating. and everybody laughed

except u and zoe.

mad maddie: cuz we are true blue

SnowAngel:

that s right. and we ll STAY true blue forever and

ever. we ll all three go to the same college and

fall in love with awesome guys who are also best

friends, and we ll be bridesmaids in each other s

weddings and live happily ever after. *sigh*

mad maddie:

whatevs. but i m not wearing pink, even for u.

mad maddie:

g2g, the moms is yelling her head off for me to

come to dinner.

SnowAngel:

first u have to say it: maddie, angela, and zoe-

together forever!

mad maddie:

er, maddie, angela, and zoe . . . what was that last

part?

SnowAngel:

*glares*

mad maddie:

i m kidding, i m kidding. but i don t HAVE to say

it, angela, cuz it s true no matter what. don t make

me get all mushy.

SnowAngel:

atta girl, mads. see u tomorrow!

Tues, Sept 7, 6:01 PM E . D . T .

zoegirl:

angela, thank u for the daisy!!! that was SO sweet.

SnowAngel:

zoe! u found it-yay!

zoegirl:

i was all overwhelmed with first-day madness,

and then i opened my locker, and voila!

SnowAngel:

i gave one to maddie too. they re to remind us

not to get caught up in stupid school stuff. we ve

just got to be ourselves and have as much fun as

possible.

zoegirl:

well, it totally made me smile.

SnowAngel:

a fabulous start to a fabulous year. and it *is* gonna

be fabulous-i can feel it. i m gonna meet the boy

of my dreams, maddie s gonna stop being so down

on herself all the time, and ur gonna . . . huh. what r

u gonna do? ur already perfect.

zoegirl:

what?!! hardly

SnowAngel:

ok, then what s your goal for sophomore year?

AND DON T SAY STRAIGHT A S, CUZ I M NOT TALKING

ABOUT SCHOOL.

zoegirl:

my goal?

zoegirl:

i have no idea

SnowAngel:

well, think of something

zoegirl:

i guess . . .

zoegirl:

i guess i just want something meaningful to

happen. something BIG. my life is so boring

compared to yours and maddie s. for once i want

something exciting to happen, and i want to be

the one it happens to.

SnowAngel:

yeah, baby. i can groove to that.

SnowAngel:

but u ll have to MAKE it happen. u can t just sit back

and be good little zoe like u usually r.
5

zoegirl:

that s my point. i want to STOP being good little

zoe. i want to try out whatever comes along.

SnowAngel:

excellent plan, just as long as it doesn t involve

going to the sit n snip. promise?

zoegirl:

silly. your haircut looks great.

SnowAngel:

right. i hate my hair!

even my mom was like,

well it s not the most flattering cut u ve ever had,

but it ll grow out.

SnowAngel:

i always get these grand ideas of oh, this style will

be perfect, and then afterward, all i wanna do is

go back in time to the good ol days of ponytails

and braids. but noooooo, it s too late, and now i m

in clippie hell till it grows out.

zoegirl:

please. you couldn t look bad if you tried.

SnowAngel:

if i wore a t-shirt that said, i got my hair cut at sit n

snip, i d put them out of business in an hour.

zoegirl:

angela, angela, angela. do you remember last year

when you hennaed your hair? only, mary kate

thought you said hint a , like just a hint a red,

not too much and not too little? and she went to

walmart to buy some and was SO bummed when

they didn t have any?

SnowAngel:

yr point . . . ?

zoegirl:

that even though you hated your henna look,

everyone else wanted to steal it for their own.
