Impulse

This book is AWESOME. It was so good I finished it in a day, that's how good it is. This book is kind of inappropriate but not really inappropriate (but then again, English is kinda inappropriate already so I don't think it's a big deal). It's about these kids who have issues in their life and ended up in a place kinda like a lunatic asylum but for kids and they talk to counsellors and try to deal with their problems. There are three main characters and the story is written in the first person and it switches in between the three.

Tony had painful childhood memories. His father left him while he was a kid, his mom works as a prostitute and he suffers from social issues because he's gay. His way out was drugs.

Vanessa suffers from bipolar disorder which is genetic from her mother. Her mother is hospitalised while her father is in Iraq fighting a war. She also suffers from major depression after her boyfriend broke up with her. The only way to forget it, is to cut herself.

Connor has everything he wants. Good grades, athleticism, girls, money. However, he does not have the attention of his parents. He is constantly in an inward battle with his parents, his peers and himself which gives him one last choice -- to shoot himself.

This book is amazing. My dad bought it for me and it is soooooooooooooooooo good. I really really really really recommend everyone to read this book.
