The 39 Deaths of Adam Strand

(4) YA Adam has committed suicide thirty-nine times, but he always inexplicably returns to life unharmed. So as he drinks away the boredom of another summer with his so-called friends, he struggles to find a reason to stop trying to end it all. The nonlinear vignettes of the opening section may lose some readers' attention, but Galloway writes powerfully, and the story eventually comes together.
