This book was well written. It was a good book. But it is very sad and depressing and I wish I hadn't have read it.
I feel like I was watching a diaster and this book was going to detail that diaster. I felt like a gawker, who can't turn away from a very bad situation that happened. Morbid curiosity takes over and you have to watch to the end, knowing nothing is going to be right. I hate gawkers...and now I have led myself into that category.

Was er dann zu hören bekommt, sind die Qualen denen der seelisch instabile Teenager ausgeliefert war. Mobbing an der Schule, Jungs die sie nur als Sexobjekt betr

I'm in an empty daze after reading this book. This is currently a huge hit in Netflix and before that version, like a true bibliophile, I wanted to finish the book version first.
My gut instincts had already told me I would be inviting over a storm, but I just had to read it.
And, Oh. My. God. It was so emotionally draining.
Maybe because Hannah was a lot like Me.
Because She had chosen to give up while I'm still fighting on and on, despite being so tired.
Because now the demons that had been kept lo ...more

I give it four stars for being fast-paced and keeping my interest throughout. But, I could have easily given this book three stars and not have lost any sleep over it. The characters were all pretty unlikeable, to be honest. And, I wasn't completely satisfied with the ending...although, I think the final moment was very nice and damn near saved this book for me. Anyway, if I were a teen I'd probably love it, but as a crotchety 30-year old...it was only okay. And, I know that is the unpopular opi

Hannah Baker recently committed suicide. She left behind 7 tapes with the 13 reasons why behind. She did not leave them where just anyone could listen to them. She mailed them to the first person on the list that had, as she saw it, a hand in causing her to commit suicide.
Told from the point of view of Clay Jensen who is a genuinely good person, and plays a part in the story although not in the suicide. He has just received the tapes in the mail and he is listening to the story of her end. If t ...more

Gripping tale. A teen suicide speaks after death via a series of cassette tapes she recorded. Addressed to those she felt responsible for driving her to this end.
We experience it through Clay, the latest recipient in the chain... He begins listening and then can't stop.
This provides a very interesting split narrative as Hannah tells her story and Clay's reactions and thoughts and actions interject in between, often filling in a different perspective. I'm not finished yet but I'm looking forwar ...more
