[QUOTE="klmno, post: 172159, member: 3699"] I thought this would have me in tears the whole time. It has turned out to be a book that I don't want to put down. I'm over half-way through it, and I am not ordinarily a fast reader. It is written first-person, telling all his thoughts as a 14 yo, and it is very revealing because it is clear that what he communicates to others (parents, friends, everyone) is not really how he feels or what he is thinking. But, it isn't intentional lieing. It is sad, but it is more of a strong reminder that even depression is an illness that is no one's fault, at least sometimes. It has it's humurous moments, too. Like, in the midst of painful therapy he still has typical teen boy thoughts of sex. (Go figure!) I would recommend it to the parent of a seriously depressed teen/adolescent boy- even at the earliest signs of depression. [/QUOTE]
