A friend asked me if I saw the show, and I said no because I hadn't read the book. so she lent me her copy to read. I had an idea what the story was about. I did wishlist it long ago after it came out. I was quite happy to finally begin reading it. What a story it is. I can see why it is so controve...
This was a reread for me. I have to admit, I don't do a lot of rereads because there are too many books that I want to read and to stop and do a reread, if just not something I normally do. When I saw this book last month, in my bookclub's bag, I was pumped! Finally, a YA book for us to read and ...
Going into the book, I knew Thirteen Reasons Why was a controversial book. I have personally battled depression in the past, but have never been near suicidal. So while I can't comment on the authenticity of how this story represents the mindset of someone who is suicidal, I can certainly believe th...
I first noticed this on a facebook post about the current Netflix series. Reading about it, I thought it sounded like a very interesting topic, until I found out it was based on a book of the same title first published 10 years ago. What followed after buying it and beginning it was one of the most ...
I was really bored while reading this. I wanted to stop early on, but it has so much hype that I figured it got better. It's definitely aimed at younger readers than me so that may be why it didn't click for me. I've seen a lot online lately about teens or people with mental illness recommended not ...

Quick review. Everyone should read this book once. As a victim of bullying and rumors myself, I definitely feel for Hannah. The topics this book discuss are very relevant and important. Rape culture. Gossip. Slut shaming. Treating women like meat. Mental illness and suicide. This book is a testame...
I am going to do my best to sum up my thoughts and feelings about this book, but be warned, what follows will probably be a mess. I was really weary of this book. I kept putting off reading it, because I wasn't sure how it would handle the subject matter. I heard that it "glorified suicide" and that...
This book was hard. Not as hard as I though it would be, but definitely hard. What you do matter to other people, it can influence their lives. Even insignificant events, maybe those are not that insignificant to everyone. Reading this book, I thought a lot about high school and primary school and I...
I did go into this book knowing it was going to push buttons but still found myself horrified and fascinated. This book does push the limits on the dark side of high school but it completely believable, it reminds us that we all turned a blind eye at one time and didn't realise how much damage it...
