Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher (Imperfect)

Jay Asher's Thirteen Reasons Why

Thirteen Reasons Why is a strong and moving book by Jay Asher that deals with the difficult issues of bullying, mental health, and how one's actions can affect others for a long time. The story is about Clay Jensen, a high school student who gets a collection of cassette records from his classmate Hannah Baker, who killed herself not long before. Hannah blames a person or a reason for her choice to kill herself on each tape. Clay learns about the horrible things that happened to Hannah that lead to her tragic death as he listens to the tapes.

The way the book is put together is different since it switches between Hannah's recorded voice and Clay's reactions when he listens to the tapes. Asher uses this format to offer young people a voice and show how simple actions may have big effects on others. He also shows how important it is to be aware of how we affect others. Thirteen Reasons Why is a candid look at the problems teens confront, and it makes you think about mental health, bullying, and personal responsibility.
