Questions and Comments:
At first I was a bit confused in the beginning because the book was sort-of going backwards. Who is Hannah Baker? Why did she suicide because of those 13 people/events? I think it's a bit stupid she suicided because of these people, but then, the people were really harsh to her. How could she put up with all the rumors about her? Why was she so sensitive? Why didn't she tell anybody? It's saddening that Clay and Hannah both liked each other but neither knew about the other. How come Clay didn't just express his true feelings for Hannah? I think this book is very meaningful and shows how a person should be careful of what they say or do because they can cause a tragic event to occur, like for example, Hannah suiciding. I don't understand the last part. Does she want her teacher to rot in hell? I think it's unfair she let her teacher make the final decision of whether or not she was going to end her life.
Thanks Allison for lending me your book :)
I think this book was a really good book. It is now one of my top 20 books to read (as of the moment). This book was very deep and well written. Although some parts might be confusing as to determining the seperation between Hannah's voice and Clay's thoughts. The plot is VERY interesting to read and leads you on in suspense. Sometimes though, I skip a few pages of details (shhh) to get the main storyline. It's that good. I would recommend this to a friend, for sure.
It's a new book, so there isn't much information on it....sorry...

I read the book too, as you know because I read it right after you did :) [thank you allison], and I agree with you that it was really good. It was sad and at times confusing but it just showed how much peoples actions and words can affect other people even without meaning to. We should all be more cautios of the people around us whos lives we affect. Anyway great book and thank you for reading it fast so that I could read it tooo xD
Oh my gosh...How many books are you reading? I read a part of 13 Reasons Why and it seems so exciting! I wanted to keep reading it but I made a vow to myself I wouldn't read another book until I finish the book I'm reading now. >.< It seems so fun and full of twists! I love twists in books !!
