Review: Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
3:51 PM | Posted by

Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker—his classmate and crush—who committed suicide two weeks earlier. On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he’ll find out how he made the list.
This is a really good heartfelt sad story. This book is really emotional. The book is filled with different stories from Hannah Baker's life that lead up to her suicide. The stories are all heartbreaking. We get to see Clay's reaction to her suicide and the stories as he walks through the town listening to the tapes. We also get to see how it affects the people who are on the tapes throughout the book. The end was alittle confusing to me but overall, this was a really great book! The moral of the story is becareful what you say and do to people because you never know how they might be taking it.

Hi! I've started doing WoW which is hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine. All you have to do is tell us what book you are looking forward to come out and tell us alittle bit about it! :)
My choice was Deadly Little Voices which is part of the Touch series by Laurie Stolarz. Here's what it's about:
My choice was Deadly Little Voices which is part of the Touch series by Laurie Stolarz. Here's what it's about:
High school junior Camelia thought her powers of psychometry only gave her the ability to sense the future through touch. But now she’s started to hear voices. Mean voices. Berating her, telling her how ugly she is, and that she’d be better off dead. It’s a troubling development that has Camelia terrified for her mental stability, especially since her deranged aunt with a suicidal history has just moved into the family house. More torturing, ex-boyfriend Ben, who has similar psychometric abilities, has been spending more time with their classmate Alejandra.
With the line between right and wrong fraying, Camelia turns to pottery to get a grasp on her emotions. She begins sculpting a beautiful figure skater, only to receive frightening premonitions that someone’s in danger. But who is the victim? And how can Camelia help them when she is on the brink of losing her own sanity?
