Impulse, Ellen Hopkins

Title: Impulse
Author: Ellen Hopkins
Pages:666
Published: January 23, 2007
My Rating: B
Summary: Aspen Springs Physciatric Hospital is a place for people who have played an ultimate end game. The suicide attempt survivors portrayed in this novel tell starkly different stories, but these three embattled teens share a desperate need for a second chance. 
My Review: 
So I gave this book a B beacuase it was kind of predictable. There are 2 boys and 1 girl, Tony, Conner, and Vanessa. It shows all of there points of few living on Aspen Springs.Tony is gay and does drugs. Vanessa cuts herself very bad, and Conner tried shooting himself in the chest but didn't succeed. The end was crazy sad! But I don't know I kind of knew it was coming. So I guess i'll give away some spoilers.

***Spoilers*** .............................  
Vanessa and Tony fall in love. Conner stops taking his meds and at one point he thinks about everything bad in his life. So when they go on a camping trip in the mountains.. Conner steps over the edge.
