By JAY ASHER

4 1/2 Stars 𐆖𐆖𐆖𐆖 

I give this book Four and a halve stars because the story made really much sense and it had a bunch of drama. I would give it five stars if the ending wasn't easy to predict in the story plot. I really wish there was more suspense and less suicidal thoughts.

Main Characters:

Hannah Baker. Hannah is the protagonist of the story. Clay Jensen. Clay is the ninth person on the list. Tony. Tony is Clay's closest friend and the one who receives the second set of tapes. Justin Foley. Justin is the first person on Hannah's list. Alex Standall. Jessica Davis. Tyler Down. Courtney Crimsen.
