Paperback. Condition: Good. It's been only a year since Utah became the last state to pass legislation granting age-of-majority sufferers of mental illness the Right to Die. When seventeen-year-old Koralee Benson wakes up in the hospital having survived a suicide attempt, her parents are desperate to get her help before her next birthday, when she will have the legal right to request a lethal dose of Repose7, a medication that has revolutionized the practice of assisted suicide. Dr. Crimm is the lead psychiatrist with Right to Life, an organization that promotes mental health treatment and support, and funds research into alternative treatments for mental illness and suicidal ideation. Right to Life was founded by the Wilkinson family, owners of tech giant Virtual Now, as a response to the loss of their own son to suicide. Their unconventional program combines the use of an experimental medication with a virtual reality technology that allows study participants to relive their traumatic experiences through the eyes of other people. Koralee is recruited to join five other teens from around the country, all grappling with their own demons, in an adventurous exploration of perspective, friendship, trust, and healing-possibly the only hope these suffering teens have at regaining the will to live.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Walk with eight-year-old Pauline and the Sampley family through the dust and depression of the 1930's. Feel the sting of the blowing desert sands against your skin and the dust sucked deep into your lungs. Feel your heart skipping a beat when the teacher calls on Pauline and she doesn't know the answer. How could she know when her back was bent over rows of cotton or beet fields, instead of a school desk. Feel the pain of separating from someone you love for the sake of putting food on the family table. Pauline never hung a bulb on a Christmas tree - never ripped the paper off a gift on Christmas morning, and never blew out the candles on a birthday cake. She clung tight to the only gift she ever knew - the gift of her family. She tied it all up in a knot that couldn't be broken. Was it really the Promise of the Road that motivated the Sampley family through the hard times, or was it something else? This item is printed on demand.
