Flash Burnout / L. K. Madigan / 332 pages / Gateway Award Nominee 2011

Blake takes a photo of Marissa's mother for Photography Class, not knowing her identity.  She is a meth addict who has been missing.  Marissa recognizes her mother in the picture.  Blake, a comedian with a girlfriend, helps Marissa deal with her mother's situation.  Bad language, mature subject matter.

"Sexuality is a powerful force.  Maybe the most powerful urge we have as humans...The thing about being human, though...is we have the ability to reason.  We can choose to do the right thing, even when we don't want to."
"Actions have consequences."

Gateway Award Nominee 2011-2012
