Just a note...

So saddened to hear of Ned Vizzini's suicide yesterday. I know his books (such as It's Kind of a Funny Story) dealing with topics like mental illness and depression gave hope to a lot of teens (and adults too). It's easy to feel like the best thing to do is to say goodbye and give up, and that things will never get better. If you do feel this way, there are people that are willing to listen at COAST Hamilton. You can call them anonymously 24 hours a day at 905-972-8338. Take care over the holidays and talk to someone if you need to.

(Enough seriousness. Back to your regularly scheduled book loving on Monday)
