 * <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Burdened with the pressure of believing she is responsible for her brother's illness, 15-year-old Callie begins a course of self-destruction--she cuts herself to relieve her inner frustrations and guilt--that leads to her being admitted to Sea Pines, a psychiatric hospital the "guests" refer to as Sick Minds. Although initially she refuses to speak, her individual and group therapy sessions trigger memories and insights. Slowly, she begins emerging from her miserable silence, ultimately understanding the role her dysfunctional family played in her brother's health crisis <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> ( <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">[|www.amazon.com] <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">).
 * <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Socially inept Tyler Miller thinks his senior year of high school is going to be a year like no other. Tyler's inability to meet his volatile father's demands to be an asset, not a liability adds increasing tension. All too quickly, Tyler's life spirals out of control. In the wake of an incident at a wild party that a popular girl, Bethany, has invited him to attend, he is left feeling completely isolated at school and alienated at home, a victim of twisted perception. Tyler must tackle the complex issues of integrity, personal responsibility, and identity on his own as he struggles to understand what it means to be a man ( <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">[|www.amazon.com] <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">).
 * <span style="line-height: normal; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lia and Cassie had been best friends since elementary school, and each developed her own style of eating disorder that leads to disaster. Now 18, they are no longer friends. Despite their estrangement, Cassie calls Lia 33 times on the night of her death, and Lia never answers. As events play out, Lia's guilt, her need to be thin, and her fight for acceptance unravel in an almost poetic stream of consciousness in this startlingly crisp and pitch-perfect first-person narrative. The text is rich with words still legible but crossed out, the judicious use of italics, and tiny font-size refrains reflecting her distorted internal logic (www.amazon.com).
 * <span style="line-height: normal; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Like so many teenagers, Tar and Gemma are fed up with their parents. Tar's family is alcoholic and abusive, and Gemma feels her home life is cramped by too many restrictions. The young, British couple runs away to Bristol in search of freedom, and finds it in the form of a "squat." This vacant building is also occupied by two slightly older teens who share everything with Tar and Gemma (including their heroin habits). For a while, everything is parties and adventures, but slowly Tar and Gemma find themselves growing more and more dependent on the drug--whose strict mandates are even less forgiving than those of the parents they fled (www.amazon.com).
 * <span style="line-height: normal; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Seventeen-year-old Kristina Snow is introduced to crank on a trip to visit her wayward father. Caught up in a fast-paced, frightening, and unfamiliar world, she morphs into "Bree" after she "shakes hands with the monster." Her fearless, risk-taking alter ego grows stronger, "convincing me to be someone I never dreamed I'd want to be." When Kristina goes home, things don't return to normal. Although she tries to reconnect with her mother and her former life as a good student, her drug use soon takes over, leaving her "starving for speed" and for boys who will soon leave her scarred and pregnant. Hopkins writes in free-verse poems that paint painfully sharp images of Kristina/Bree and those around her, detailing how powerful the "monster" can be (www.amazon.com).
