13 reasons why
I just read a book that tore at my heart and made me sob for an hour. Its called 13 Reasons Why. Its about a boy who gets in the mail a box of audio tapes from an unknown person. He puts the first one in and hears the voice of someone who comitted suicide just 2 weeks ago. Its a girll he had known and had a crush on. She says in the first tape that if you have recived these tapes you are one of the reasons why she died. It is so sad but i really think it opens your eyes to someone who is thinking of suicide. She talks about a long chain of events that leads to her decision and you learn that so much is coneccted. You also learn that everyone included inthe tapes had a chance to save her and turned away, leaving her to be someone elses problem. I cried so hard when it came to the main character boys tape and even harder when i came to her last fight to find someone who cared enough to save her. 13 reasons why is definitly one of the saddest books you could ever read but i think its a book sometime in your life you should check out. It will definitly make you think twice about your roll in people lives. We don't just go through life making decisions for ourselves. The decisions we make affect everyone. Though this book is sad the best part is the very last part. The boy who didnt stop one persons decision was able to reach out to someone just like Hannah (the girl who died) and save her. So yeah. Thought you would be interested in that bit of reading info. :) Sorry for the major bum session. But anyways, intersesting book. Some inapropriote parts that you can just skip but are important to the story. Alltogether is a PG-13 kind of book or T rated book. Something to that accord. Shesh this is long. Fare well!
