I give this book four stars, and if anyone knows how i rate, it takes a pretty damn good book for me to give it that many. Even though i am 26, I would reccomend this to anyone of any age, Boy, girl etc. I can see how this book might appeal to a male audience since the main character is a male.

The main story of Hannah and the 13 reasons why she 'killed' herself become clear and a puzzle starts to fit into place as Clay listens to the tapes...

He is shocked and very surprised by some of the things he hears, but some dont surprise him at all.

Jay Asher has done in his first novel, what many authors STILL can't do. You fall in love with the characters, he holds your interest and gives just enough mystery for you to keep turning those pages.

I also appreciate how the ending ended. Very direct, to the point etc. You would think 'a girl killing herself in a book, why the hell would i read that, i already know what happens to her.' But the whole point of the story and of stories you hear about this type of thing goes to show us all that we never REALLY do know the whole story, in this case YOU WILL.

I recommend not waiting for this one. Im sick of waiting for 100+ people to get their book first, i spend the little extra and just break down and buy it at B&N.

I really think you should. I am not disapointed at all about paying full price for this one.

Commendably done Mr Asher.
