By the Time You Read This, I'll Be Dead by Julie Anne Peters

3.0

Daelyn is suicidal beyond all belief due to all the bullying she has undergone. Horrific stuff. Daelyn is at a new school after another failed attempt leaving her apparently mute and with a neck brace. She is ow sharing a bench with a boy Santana who waltzes into her life. But is he going to save her? Can there be anything that saves her from all of the terrible things that have gone through her life, a shy 15 years?

I liked it cause it delves into the mind a greatly depressed and suicidal teenager who can't see that stuff like bullying will end if she could just hold on. Bullying is a terrible thing. I underwent bullying throughout all my education. The exaggerations of this mind set is not nearly far off from someone at rock bottom. This is why I like the book.
