Suicide Notes by Michael Thomas Ford

This book focuses on the life of fifteen year old Jeff, he meets Sadie within the hospital. Sadie tried to commit suicide before being admitted and does have some disturbing things to say at times, however she made Jeff feel happier at having a friend.

A new admission of a young jock guy, Ranken makes Jeff finally face up to the reason he tried to really kill himself and face the fact that *spoiler* he likes guys.

The reasons behind his admission and his suicide attempt which landed him in there become clear and obvious that he felt he would be judged and outcast, especially by his friend, Amy on the outside as he made an embarrassingly unrequited pass at her boyfriend.

The book was good and tackled two delicate topics in one very well, I would have liked to have seen how Amy felt when Jeff came out from treatment however.
