  1. The Burn Journals By Brent Runyon

  2. Quotations • “It’s a scary story because we’ve all, at one time or another, felt some of the things Brent felt: hopeless, stupid, useless. His emotional honesty will give you pause – and it should. Read this book to learn not only about Brent and his story, but your own…The details are excruciating at times and the reader suffers along with Brent.” • Young Adults Book Central: A Haunting True Story by Kimberly Pauley • “It's a fascinating journey through a teenager's mind, only lacking information about what happened to Brent after he returned to school” -KirkusReviews

  3. BIG Questions • What would you do for a friend that you think is think is potentially suicidal? • What type of influence does suicide have on victims families? • In the story Brent’s mother had no idea he was so unhappy and depressed, how do you think someone such a family member can be so blind from signn of depression when they are the people that know you best?
