I actually don't own this book but it's the first one I thought of for this prompt. I adored this movie but the book wasn't what I had expected. Every day hundreds of #letters are received addressed to "Juliet". The movie tells the story of the volunteers who painstakingly read and respond to these, the book gives a collection some of these letters.

LeahBergen I think I may need to write a letter to Juliet, just to see how they reply. 😆 6y
FantasyChick Haha I love that idea! Although I'm sure it would take months, if not years, before you got a response lol 6y

Thought of this book right away when saw this prompt- maybe because we are reading & acting out scenes from this play now with 9th graders- maybe because this phenomenon of the world writing Letters to Juliet centuries later intrigues me- maybe because I honeymooned in Verona- maybe because we saw the movie as a family-maybe all that!

Dear Juliet, Would you please work your magic and bless me with a passionate love affair that will last forever? He must be tall, handsome, smart, and he must also gave a heart of gold. I don't think I mentioned his "gold" bank account. It would be greatly appreciated.
