Items related to The Movie Version
The only thing sixteen-year-old Amelia Anderson loves more than movies is her older brother, Toby, a larger-than-life force, as popular with the cheerleaders as with the stoners. Amelia, on the other hand, is addicted to Netflix and afraid to drive. But she doesn’t mind. She’s happy playing the sidekick in the movie version of Toby’s life. But when a devastating event takes Toby out of the picture, Amelia’s left without a star. Ready or not, she has to step into her own spotlight. It’s time to get out of her head, get off of Netflix, and get behind the camera―and the wheel. This whip-smart, heart-wrenching debut YA novel about first love, first loss, and filmmaking will delight fans of Jandy Nelson and Jennifer Niven.

Emily Wunsch is a writer living in Lebanon, NH, with her husband and two daughters. She's written movie reviews for The Washington Free Press, worked in a used bookstore, taught college-level writing, and published short fiction and journalism in a variety of publications including The Best of Bellevue Literary Review. She has an M.F.A. in creative writing from Brooklyn College. In the movie version of her life she would like to be played by Tina Fey, with Mark Ruffalo playing her husband, even though she looks nothing like Tina and her husband looks nothing like Mark.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A whip-smart, heart-wrenching debut YA novel about first love, first loss, and filmmaking that will delight fans of Jandy Nelson and Jennifer Niven In the movie version of Amelia's life, the roles have always been clear. Her older brother, Toby: definitely the Star. As popular with the stoners as he is with the cheerleaders, Toby is someone you'd pay ten bucks to watch sweep Battle of the Bands and build a "beach party" in the bathroom. As for Amelia? She's Toby Anderson's Younger Sister. She's perfectly happy to watch Toby's hijinks from the sidelines, when she's not engrossed in one of her elaborately themed Netflix movie marathons. But recently Toby's been acting in a very non-movie-version way. He's stopped hanging out with his horde of friends and started obsessively journaling and disappearing for days at a time. Amelia doesn't know what's happened to her awesome older brother, or who this strange actor is that's taken his place. And there's someone else pulling at her attention: a smart, cute new boyfriend who wants to know the real Amelia - not Toby's Sidekick. Amelia feels adrift without her star, but to best help Toby - and herself - it might be time to cast a new role: Amelia Anderson, leading lady. A gorgeous YA debut about a film-obsessed teen who must choose between playing sidekick to her charismatic brother or being her own leading lady Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
