Genre Drama
Sixteen-year-old Jayson Porter wants to believe things will get better. But the harsh realities of his life never seem to change.

As the pressure mounts, there's only one thing Jayson feels he has control over-the choice of whether to live or die.

I thought that this book was ok. It kept my attintion pretty well because of how realistic it is. When I say it's realistic, i mean cause so many people these days really feel the way Jason felt. I don't know how I could ever handle losing my best friend. It is so sad what Jason went through and what makes it worse is that there are people out there going through the same situation. I think i would rate this book a 3, because of how real it is and how emotional the book was.
