You can't stop the future. You can't rewind the past. The only way to learn the secret . . . is to press play.
Clay Jensen returns home from school one day to find a mysterious box with his name on it, outside his front door. Inside he discovers a series of cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker - his classmate and crush. Only, she committed suicide two weeks earlier. On the first tape, Hannah explains that there are 13 reasons why she did what she did - and Clay is one of them.
If he listens, Clay will find out how he made the list - what he hears will change his life forever.

There's no true /honest justice in this book, proves that if you have more money you can get away with any crime, it painful what's happening here. If you're a very sensitive person please done read. I had a very had time pushing the images away from my mind after I watched the series.

Good story but fast paced. I thought it was a very good page turner and
loved Clay's input whilst we listen to the tapes. Only thing that I think
could have been better is making it a bit longer. It lacked the other
characters but the way the story is put together is very well written. I
understand how Hannah came to hate herself and what she became due to the
events caused by those on the tapes. Had great empathy for both Clay and
Hannah even with such a contrast of frame of mind. Credit to the author!

I read the book after my teenage daughter spoke to me about the TV series and found it thought provoking and actually pretty good. If it's as popular with teens as I've been told then I really hope it makes more of them think about their behaviour towards others and the effects it can have. People can be so cruel sometimes, we could all do with being a bit nicer to each other.

About the author
Jay Asher's bestselling debut novel, Thirteen Reasons Why has been adapted into a 13-part series on Netflix. He got the idea for the novel while listening to a museum audio tour - he was struck by the eeriness of the voice in his ear, a woman who described everything he was looking at, but wasn't there. His novels have been translated into thirty-seven languages.
