TH1RTEEN R3ASONS WHY

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.

Setting:

The book Thirteen Reasons why by Jay Asher tells about a girl who kills herself. She mailed cassette tapes to Clay. There were thirteen tapes blaming people for her death. She is also telling her life story.

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.

I rate it a 3 because it could be more interesting.
This book takes place in Wisconsin that's where the author lived as well.
  • Shawn Mcdaniel is the main character he is 14 and suffers from C.P.
  • This book is about a 14 year old who has c.p since he was born he's never been able to talk or communicate with the world. He understands everything everyone says but he 
  • The main thing in this story is that Shawn thinks his dad is trying to kill him or in other words put him out of his misery.
  • I think people who like stories with a little mystery would like this book 
  • It's a non fiction book
