Thirteen Reasons Why
by Jay Asher
A Must Read (3/31/2013)
Thirteen Reasons Why was a very well written book. It explored a topic most authors shy away from, suicide. The author did an amazing job of showing the suicidal thinkers point of view. Thirteen Reasons Why really makes you think about how you treat other people. It shows that no action is too small to affect someone else's life. In Hannah (the main character's case) some people didn't even recognize they had done anything to hurt her, but when someone is already in a fragile state, anything can add on to the pain. I really enjoyed reading this book. It has a gripping topic and once you start, you can’t stop reading it. There isn’t necessarily a happy ending to the book, but it changes the way you think. I know when I finished reading it, I just wanted to hug everyone because I didn’t know what they were going through. It teaches acceptance of others. Stereotypes are hardly ever a correct assessment of a person’s character and one should not be judged based on what others say. One of the things I really liked about this book was that it was very relatable to young adults. The author knows what we are going through at this age and he utilized his knowledge and created a very well written novel to tug at the heart strings.
