Suicide Notes by Michael Thomas Ford
4.0
When I was in high school I read a book that was also set in a psychiatric facility, so as soon as I read the synopsis for this book at my local Barnes and Noble I knew I had to read it. I also have my B.A. in Psychology so this book was a must for me to read.
Suicide Notes was humorous but at the same time brought to light very serious issues and it had that great balance without making it too awkward or cringy.
Jeff was a character that you won’t be able to stop yourself from caring for him. Throughout the book I just wanted him to understand himself better and learn that his family and the doctor only had his best interest in mind. This book is emotional and tackles very hard subjects so make sure you check trigger warnings or do some research on it before reading it.
Overall I think the Jeff’s journey of discovering more about himself and realizing who he is was refreshing in a “we need more books like this” kind of way. So i definitely recommend it if you’re a part of the LGBTQ+ community and need reassurance that you are perfect just the way you are!
