Suicide Notes / Michael Thomas Ford,

An unforgettable coming of age novel for fans of 13 Reasons Why, It s Kind of a Funny Story, and The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Fifteen-year-old Jeff wakes up on New Year s Day to find himself in the hospital specifically, in the psychiatric ward. Despite the bandages on his wrists, he s positive this is all some huge mistake. Jeff is perfectly fine, perfectly normal; not like the other kids in the hospital with him. But over the course of the next forty-five days, Jeff begins to understand why he ended up here and realizes he has more in common with the other kids than he thought.

With a sprinkling of dark humor and a full measure of humanness, Suicide Notes is quirky, surprising, and a riveting read. Ellen Hopkins, author of The You I ve Never Known and Love Lies Beneath

Like the very best teen novels, Suicide Notes is both classic and edgy, timeless and provocative. Brent Hartinger, author of Geography Club

Jeff s wit and self-discovery are refreshing, poignant, and, at times, laugh-out-loud funny. School Library Journal
