Emma | 5 comments I read this book in about 2011 maybe. It was a YA and I remember that in the first or second chapter there's a moment in a mall where the main character thinks that she's seen someone commit suicide by falling down multiple stories in a mall, but it turns out it was actually just a rag doll type thing. The main plot of the book is something about a game that everybody is playing by doing dangerous things and earning points, kind of like the book Nerve by Jeanne Ryan but its not that one. Also in my head I have it associated with The Bar Code Tattoo by Suzanne Weyn, and I don't know why, but I guess there could be plot similarities somewhere in there. Thanks!

Here's the description from my library website (which I think is a little more helpful, since it actually mentions the suicide):

"Fifteen-year-old Katey, aka Kid, goes to school in the Game: a 'school' run by corporate sponsors. Social networking and your online profile is everything. Striving to get ahead in the popularity stakes involves careful navigation. When Kid witnesses a mock suicide by an anonymous group called the Unidentified she begins to question her reality."

Does this sound like your book?
