Thirteen Reasons Why

Thirteen Reasons Why is an amazing story. This story is about a quiet, shy, high school student, Clay Jensen. One day, coming home from school, he discover a package on his doorstep. Inside this package was a shoe box filled with cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker. Hannah Baker was Clay's classmate who recently committed suicide from overdose. The tapes were mailed to one classmate who was instructed to pass them to another, sort of like a chain reaction. Starting from one involved in the first story to the last. Hannah explains to 12 people why they each had a part of her death, providing her with 13 reasons to kill herself in the cassette tapes. Hannah reveals her pain and suffering leading to a great pinnacle of depression, resulting in her death. On her list, it included a peeping Tom, her first kiss, the guidance counselor, a hater, two ex-friends, a guy she had sex with, a cheerleader who crashes into a stop sign, and last but not least, Clay himself. The snowball effect became to get bigger and bigger as the time went on, and the lies started to build up. Everyone who she mention thought their actions didn't mean anything to Hannah, but it did. It meant a lot to her. Clay discovers that he wasn't the reason why Hannah killed herself. So he passed them on to someone else. Tony, Clay's close friend, had the second set of tapes. He was instructed to leak them out them out to the whole student body, if the students didn't pass them on.
