My Heart and Other Black Holes


Book #11 Read in 2017
My Heart and Other Black Holes by Jasmine Warga

Aysel is a depressed teenager who feels as if she would be better off committing suicide.  She surfs a suicide website and pairs up with FrozenRobot (a teenage boy named Roman) who is looking for someone to commit suicide with him.  The two meet and plan when and how they will do it.  But as that date gets closer Aysel feels as if she is not ready to give up living.  Will she be able to get Roman to feel the same in time?  This was a powerful read which both high school  and adult readers would love.  It is raw and realistic and has an important message.
