Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher

I started and finished this book within a few hours and you will too!

If you read only one novel this year, let this one be it!

This book is about teen suicide, one girl in particular. It shows how your actions can and do affect others and how it can negatively impact a person. This novel is compelling yet the writing can and will interfere with your reading flow.

The narrative between Clay's thoughts and dialogues with others along with Hannah's voice on the tapes can become a bit jumbled up and you have to take a moment to decipher what is being said by whom...

This novel will capture your attention and make your heartache for Hannah and millions of other teens in her position.


Grade: A-
