Thirteen Reason's Why-Jay Asher



This book was hauntingly good. It is about a young girl who had committed suicide. She made tapes as sort of a suicide note. There were 7 tapes. Each side a different person who had an impact on her. The book follows the one boy listening to all the tapes. He was the boy with a crush on her.

I felt so bad for Clay through out the whole book. I wanted to take him in my arms and hug him and tell him not to worry that he did all he could. Hannah bothered me a little bit. I know that she wanted people to know that their actions have more impact than a lot of kids realize, but I am not sure the tapes were the way to do it.

I would recommend this book to all teens though and if I was a school counselor it would be an assignment to any child I was working with.
