Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher


image
This is a pretty sad book. I saw this book a couple years ago and decided to give it a try because the story sounded pretty interesting..
Hannah Baker is the girl in the picture. She recorded 13 different cassette tapes for Clay Jensen explaining the 13 different reasons why she decided to commit suicide. 
Clay Jensen is a classmate of Hannah and has had a crush on her for a while now. He arrives home and finds a box with his name on it. Clay finds out that it’s Hannah talking in the tapes and that she’s telling him why she committed suicide. 
This book made me sad but also made me understand how much people’s actions can affect others. While you read the book, you find out more about Clay and what he knows about Hannah. Hannah and Clay could’ve been together but what happened that one night changed their lives forever ….
