13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher is about a boy named Clay who returns home and discovers a box of cassette tapes on his bed. When Clay listens to the cassette tapes, he finds that it's his crush Hannah Baker who committed suicide a couple weeks earlier. Clay proceeds to travels through his hometown while listening to the cassette tapes to find out why Hannah committed suicide.
My favorite character was Clay, because I sympathized for him. Clay hearing Hannah saying why she killed her self on the tapes was hard for him. Every where Clay went, he found another way he could have helped Hannah. Clay should be frustrated that his crush committed suicide, and wasn't able to help her.
I thought this was a very well written book about what teenagers go through in high school. It had a good message in it, that: words and actions do hurt, especially the ones you don't say. I would suggest this book to people who enjoy reading teen fiction books.
