An unforgettable coming of age novel for fans of 13 Reasons Why, Itâs Kind of a Funny Story, and The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
Fifteen-year-old Jeff wakes up on New Yearâs Day to find himself in the hospitalâspecifically, in the psychiatric ward.
Despite the bandages on his wrists, heâs 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 hereâand realizes he has more in common with the other kids than he thought.

âLike the very best teen novels, Suicide Notes is both classic and edgy, timeless and provocative.â âBrent Hartinger, author of Geography Club
âMakes a powerful emotional impact.â âPublishers Weekly (starred review)
âJeffâs wit and self-discovery are refreshing, poignant, and, at times, laugh-out-loud funny.â âSchool Library Journal
