A must read for any teen! If only there weren't bullies in school, mean boys and girls who start nasty rumors for no reason. The result of those rumors can be life threatening and they don't even realize it. Teenage suicide is on the rise and we wonder why. This books explains it pretty well. A fictional account of something all too real in our society today. Don't be mean to your peers, don't start that nasty rumor, just be nice.

While I thought the writing was good and the premise intriguing I just didn't buy it - and a part of me is worried how this might effect teens looking for potential "signs" of suicide or considering it themselves. Its trite and makes the girl in the story seem vague and shallow.

First, I have to say that the conceit for the book is unprecedented in my experience, and I was intrigued by it immediately. Overall, I like it. In a few parts, I did have trouble shifting both from regular to italics type and shifting from first to second to third person, but that might just be reflective of me.

I flew through this book in one sitting. It was a fast read and there was nothing on tv. I always feel weird saying, "I really enjoyed this book about suicide", so instead I'll say that I felt satisfied by this book. It had some flaws (Clay was too perfect and a little flat), but overall I felt it dealt with the topic well and had me hooked.
