Clay gets a mysterious package on his doorstep from a classmate, Hannah, who recently commited suicide. He is compelled to listen to the tapes when tape one tells him that he is one of the people she holds responsible for her death. The tapes become an eye opener for him about the classmates he thought he knew and how our actions can greatly affect others.
I thought this book was ok. It would be a good book to have a teenager read. I did like the message it had about how our actions can affect other people. I think it's easy to get so wrapped up in ourselves, sometimes we forget how easily it is to hurt other people. I also liked the dual narrative of Clay and Hannah. It was a little confusing at first, because unlike other books that might switch off narrators chapter by chapter, this book switched narrators within the chapter. So it would go back and forth between the two, which I found interesting to read. Overall this was a quick read (I read it in one day), good message, but sad topic.
