Educational Value

Inspired parents and teachers could use this book to talk about teen suicide and about the destructive nature of bullying, gossip, and indifference.

Positive Messages

Hannah's message is to "be careful how you treat people, you never know how it will affect them." Readers also will realize that inaction -- whether to stop a crime or a rumor or talk to a troubled student, friend, or child -- can be just as damaging as deliberately inflicting pain.

Positive Role Models

Readers will feel sorry for Clay, who had a crush on Hannah and is horrified to be one of the 13 reasons she killed herself. Through tragedy, he learns to reach out to others.

Parents need to know that this bestselling novel is about a teen girl's reasons for committing suicide, which she articulates in audio tapes she sends to 13 people, mailing them on the day of her death. The book includes discussion of rape, voyeurism, underage drinking, sexism, revenge, and survivor's guilt. There are positive messages here about the importance of treating people with kindness -- and about the price of inaction -- that parents and teachers may want to help teen readers think and talk about. The 10th anniversary edition (cover pictured here) includes an introduction from the author, deleted scenes, the original ending, and more bonus material. The book has been adapted for a Netflix series, set to premiere March 31, 2017. A TV tie-in edition of the book (to be released March 7, 2017) includes interviews with the actors.

Unsatisfactory for its topic

Passing the blame, what's the story.

When Clay Jensen receives audio tapes in the mail, he's horrified to hear his dead crush's voice coming out of the stereo. Hannah lists 13 reasons why she killed herself and the 13 people responsible for it. Clay is racked with guilt as he waits to hear how he could have been involved in her tragic decision.

Is It Any Good?

Teens will identify with the sometimes-oppressive culture of high school. First-time author Jay Asher's story presents the dark side of teen life: drinking, sex, rumor mills, suicides, cries for help, inept or absent adults, and the mean spirit that surrounds the general high school student body. Here everyone's a victim, an enabler, or a perpetrator, and some of the characters are all three, including Hannah Baker. Her tapes and reasoning are, at times, just as selfish and mean as those she accuses. And, although we see some of the 13 characters not showing much remorse, the majority of them are already burdened with "should haves" when Hannah's tapes arrive.

For any teens who've had dark thoughts of their own, the aftermath of Hannah's decision and the conclusions Clay reaches hopefully will make them think again. But this book has messages that will reach all teens: Hannah warns that we must "be careful how you treat people, you never know how it will affect them." Readers also will realize that inaction -- whether to stop a crime or a rumor or talk to a troubled student, friend, or child -- can be just as damaging as deliberately inflicting pain.

Talk to Your Kids About ...

Families can talk about suicide. Do books and movies that tackle tough topics such as this one glamorize suicide and other dangerous behaviors, or do they provide an important outlet and opportunities for discussion?

Hannah warns her listeners to "be careful how you treat people, you never know how it will affect them." Is this something that teens need to be reminded of? Do you see a lot of bullying and indifference at your own high school?

Why do you think this book has remained a bestseller for so many years?

THIRTEEN REASONS WHY

by Jay Asher ‧ RELEASE DATE: Oct. 1, 2007

“Everything affects everything,” declares Hannah Baker, who killed herself two weeks ago. After her death, Clay Jensen—who had a crush on Hannah—finds seven cassette tapes in a brown paper package on his doorstep. Listening to the tapes, Hannah chronicles her downward spiral and the 13 people who led her to make this horrific choice. Evincing the subtle—and not so subtle—cruelties of teen life, from rumors, to reputations, to rape, Hannah explains to her listeners that, “in the end, everything matters.” Most of the novel quite literally takes place in Clay’s head, as he listens to Hannah’s voice pounding in his ears through his headphones, creating a very intimate feel for the reader as Hannah explains herself. Her pain is gut-wrenchingly palpable, and the reader is thrust face-first into a world where everything is related, an intricate yet brutal tapestry of events, people and places. Asher has created an entrancing character study and a riveting look into the psyche of someone who would make this unfortunate choice. A brilliant and mesmerizing debut from a gifted new author. (Fiction. YA)

IF HE HAD BEEN WITH ME

by Laura Nowlin ‧ RELEASE DATE: April 1, 2013

There’s not much plot here, but readers will relish the opportunity to climb inside Autumn’s head.

The finely drawn characters capture readers’ attention in this debut.

Autumn and Phineas, nicknamed Finny, were born a week apart; their mothers are still best friends. Growing up, Autumn and Finny were like peas in a pod despite their differences: Autumn is “quirky and odd,” while Finny is “sweet and shy and everyone like[s] him.” But in eighth grade, Autumn and Finny stop being friends due to an unexpected kiss. They drift apart and find new friends, but their friendship keeps asserting itself at parties, shared holiday gatherings and random encounters. In the summer after graduation, Autumn and Finny reconnect and are finally ready to be more than friends. But on August 8, everything changes, and Autumn has to rely on all her strength to move on. Autumn’s coming-of-age is sensitively chronicled, with a wide range of experiences and events shaping her character. Even secondary characters are well-rounded, with their own histories and motivations.

SEEN & HEARD

INDIVISIBLE

by Daniel Aleman ‧ RELEASE DATE: May 4, 2021

An ode to the children of migrants who have been taken away.

A Mexican American boy takes on heavy responsibilities when his family is torn apart.

Mateo’s life is turned upside down the day U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents show up unsuccessfully seeking his Pa at his New York City bodega. The Garcias live in fear until the day both parents are picked up; his Pa is taken to jail and his Ma to a detention center. The adults around Mateo offer support to him and his 7-year-old sister, Sophie, however, he knows he is now responsible for caring for her and the bodega as well as trying to survive junior year—that is, if he wants to fulfill his dream to enter the drama program at the Tisch School of the Arts and become an actor. Mateo’s relationships with his friends Kimmie and Adam (a potential love interest) also suffer repercussions as he keeps his situation a secret. Kimmie is half Korean (her other half is unspecified) and Adam is Italian American; Mateo feels disconnected from them, less American, and with worries they can’t understand. He talks himself out of choosing a safer course of action, a decision that deepens the story. Mateo’s self-awareness and inner monologue at times make him seem older than 16, and, with significant turmoil in the main plot, some side elements feel underdeveloped. Aleman’s narrative joins the ranks of heart-wrenching stories of migrant families who have been separated.

Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher MAG

With its almost eerie tone, Thirteen Reasons Why is the perfectly balanced suspense and mystery novel. With spectacular honesty and a strong voice, Jay Asher touches on the extremely sensitive topic of suicide. Entering the world of high school student Clay, the reader finds him grieving and confused about the suicide of a peer, Hannah, two weeks before. When Clay receives a package containing seven cassette tapes, he is positive it's a prank. But as he listens to the first one, he is abruptly met by Hannah's voice. She claims that there are 13 reasons why she made the decision to end her life. Asher uses an unusual and interesting approach to storytelling, inviting the reader to listen to the tapes along with Clay in order to discover what Hannah's life truly was like. This wonderfully realistic book explores a very important point: how even small acts of cruelty can slowly accumulate until a dam of emotions finally breaks. This compelling story affected me deeply, making me think twice about even the smallest remarks. A comment that might take seconds to say can cause long-term damage. This riveting and brilliant novel made me want to be the best person possible to everyone around me, and it left me eager for more work by Jay Asher.

Setiap situs dalam daftar ini menawarkan pengalaman bermain yang menyenangkan dan aman. Anda akan menemukan berbagai permainan togel, odds kompetitif, dan pembayaran cepat. Mari kita jelajahi bersama pilihan terbaik untuk petaruh togel online di Indonesia.

Mengenali Situs Bandar Togel Terpercaya

Memilih bandar togel terpercaya memerlukan perhatian terhadap beberapa faktor penting. Keamanan, regulasi, dan reputasi menjadi kunci utama dalam menentukan keandalan sebuah situs togel online.

Lisensi dan Regulasi

Situs bandar togel terpercaya selalu memiliki lisensi resmi dari otoritas perjudian yang diakui. Pastikan Anda memeriksa informasi lisensi yang biasanya tercantum di bagian bawah halaman utama situs.

Regulasi yang ketat menjamin keadilan permainan dan perlindungan data pemain. Bandar togel berkualitas akan mematuhi standar industri dan peraturan pemerintah yang berlaku.

Periksa juga kebijakan privasi dan syarat ketentuan situs. Informasi ini harus mudah diakses dan dijelaskan dengan jelas.

Tingkat Keamanan dan Teknologi Enkripsi

Keamanan data pribadi dan transaksi keuangan sangat penting dalam perjudian online. Bandar togel terpercaya menggunakan teknologi enkripsi canggih, seperti SSL 128-bit atau lebih tinggi.

Cari tanda gembok di address bar browser saat mengakses situs. Ini menunjukkan koneksi aman antara perangkat Anda dan server situs.

Metode pembayaran yang aman dan beragam juga menjadi indikator keandalan situs. Pilihan seperti transfer bank, e-wallet, dan kartu kredit harus tersedia.

Reputasi dan Ulasan Positif

Reputasi situs bandar togel dapat dilihat dari ulasan pemain lain. Cari testimoni di forum perjudian online atau situs ulasan independen.

Perhatikan komentar tentang kecepatan pembayaran, layanan pelanggan, dan kualitas permainan. Situs terpercaya biasanya memiliki lebih banyak ulasan positif daripada negatif.

Lama beroperasi juga bisa menjadi indikator kepercayaan. Situs yang telah bertahan bertahun-tahun biasanya memiliki track record yang baik dalam melayani pemain.

Berbagai Pasaran Togel dan Permainan

Pasaran togel menawarkan beragam pilihan dan jenis permainan yang menarik. Anda dapat menemukan variasi pasaran dari berbagai negara serta format taruhan yang berbeda-beda.

Pasaran Togel Populer: Hongkong, Sydney, dan Lainnya

Pasaran Hongkong merupakan salah satu yang paling diminati pemain togel. Hasil undian diumumkan setiap hari pukul 23:00 WIB. Pasaran Sydney juga populer dengan jadwal result pukul 13:50 WIB.

Selain itu, ada pasaran Singapore yang dianggap cukup bergengsi. Pengundian dilakukan pada Senin, Rabu, Kamis, Sabtu, dan Minggu pukul 17:45 WIB.

Jenis-Jenis Permainan Togel

Ada beberapa jenis permainan togel yang bisa Anda coba:

• Colok Bebas: Menebak 1 angka yang akan keluar
• Colok Macau: Menebak 2 angka yang akan keluar
• Colok Naga: Menebak 3 angka yang akan keluar
• Shio: Menebak simbol zodiak Cina yang berkaitan dengan angka keluaran

Setiap jenis memiliki cara bermain dan perhitungan kemenangan yang berbeda. Pelajari aturannya sebelum memasang taruhan.

Togel 2D, 3D, dan 4D

Togel 2D mengharuskan Anda menebak 2 angka terakhir dari hasil undian. Peluang menang lebih besar, tapi hadiah lebih kecil.

Pada togel 3D, Anda perlu menebak 3 angka terakhir. Tingkat kesulitan dan hadiah lebih tinggi dibanding 2D.

Togel 4D merupakan format dengan 4 angka. Peluang menang paling kecil, tapi berpotensi memberikan hadiah terbesar jika tebakan tepat.

Pilih format sesuai strategi dan budget Anda. Selalu bermain dengan bijak dan bertanggung jawab.

Promosi dan Bonus untuk Pemain

Situs togel terpercaya menawarkan berbagai insentif menarik untuk memikat dan mempertahankan pemain. Bonus dan promosi ini dapat meningkatkan peluang kemenangan serta memberikan nilai tambah bagi pengalaman bermain Anda.

Bonus New Member dan Bonus Deposit

Sebagai pemain baru, Anda bisa mendapatkan bonus new member terbesar hingga 20% dari deposit pertama. Syaratnya cukup mudah - cukup daftar dan lakukan deposit minimal. Bonus ini bisa langsung Anda gunakan untuk memasang taruhan.

Untuk deposit selanjutnya, banyak situs menawarkan bonus deposit harian. Biasanya berkisar 5% dari jumlah setoran Anda. Bonus deposit memberi Anda modal tambahan untuk bermain lebih lama dan meningkatkan peluang menang.

Perhatikan syarat dan ketentuan terkait bonus. Beberapa situs mungkin membatasi jenis permainan atau mewajibkan turnover tertentu sebelum bonus bisa dicairkan.

Cashback dan Hadiah Besar

Cashback mingguan atau bulanan membantu Anda mendapatkan kembali sebagian kekalahan. Biasanya berkisar 10% dari total kekalahan selama periode tertentu. Ini memberi Anda kesempatan kedua untuk bermain.

Beberapa bandar togel menawarkan hadiah 4D 10 juta untuk kemenangan nomor 4 angka. Hadiah terbesar ini bisa mencapai ratusan juta rupiah untuk taruhan yang tepat.

Selain itu, promo dan bonus menarik lainnya sering diadakan pada momen-momen khusus. Misalnya bonus hari raya, undian berhadiah, atau turnamen dengan hadiah besar. Manfaatkan promosi ini untuk memaksimalkan keuntungan Anda.

Proses Daftar, Deposit, dan Withdraw

Mendaftar, menyetor, dan menarik dana di situs togel terpercaya melibatkan beberapa langkah penting. Berikut ini panduan singkat untuk membantu Anda memulai.

Membuat Akun Judi Togel Resmi

Kunjungi situs togel resmi pilihan Anda. Cari tombol "Daftar" atau "Registrasi" di halaman utama. Isi formulir pendaftaran dengan data diri yang valid. Pastikan menggunakan informasi yang benar untuk menghindari masalah saat penarikan dana.

Setelah mengisi formulir, Anda akan menerima email konfirmasi. Klik tautan verifikasi untuk mengaktifkan akun Anda. Beberapa situs mungkin meminta dokumen tambahan untuk verifikasi identitas.

Jika mengalami kesulitan, hubungi layanan pelanggan untuk bantuan. Mereka siap membantu Anda 24/7 melalui live chat atau email.

Metode Pembayaran: OVO, GOPAY, dan Bank Lokal

Situs togel terpercaya menawarkan beragam metode pembayaran. OVO dan GOPAY populer karena kecepatan dan kemudahannya. Untuk menggunakan e-wallet, pilih opsi deposit OVO atau GOPAY di menu kasir.

Bank lokal juga tersedia untuk transfer dana. Pilih bank Anda dan ikuti petunjuk yang diberikan. Minimal deposit biasanya mulai dari Rp50.000, tergantung kebijakan situs.

Kecepatan dan Keamanan Transaksi

Thirteen Reasons Why Book Review

Updated on April 26th, 2023

Last month I finished listening to the audiobook of Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher, and since I watched both seasons of the series on Netflix, I wanted to compare the book to the series.

This post contains affiliate links, which means I may earn a commission if you make a purchase through my links, but there is no extra cost to you .

You don’t know what goes on in anyone’s life but your own. And when you mess with one part of a person’s life, you’re not messing with just that part. Unfortunately, you can’t be that precise and selective. When you mess with one part of a person’s life, you’re messing with their entire life. Everything. . . affects everything.

  Trigger Warning: Suicide

13 Reasons Why follows Clay Jensen after he receives a box of cassette tapes recorded by his classmate Hannah Baker who committed suicide 2 weeks earlier. In the tapes, Hannah explains the 13 reasons why she decided to end her life and why Clay is one of those reasons.

Both the Netflix series and the book follow a similar plot, but in the book, Clay listens to all the tapes in a single night whereas in the series it takes him much longer and he interacts with his classmates at school as well as Hannah’s parents at their business. Clay’s relationships with the others add another element to the story, but the book by itself is powerful. The second season of the Netflix series departs from the book and follows the court case between Hannah Baker’s parents vs the school because they failed to protect her from committing suicide, which was interesting to watch.

In both the book and series, you hear Clay’s thoughts as he is listening to the tapes. I thought it was important to see how someone close to Hannah was impacted by her death. The book and series discuss difficult topics including suicide, bullying, and victim blaming. Despite the difficult topics, I did not find the book that emotional whereas the series made me cry several times. I have also read some negative reviews saying that the reasons why Hannah committed suicide were not believable, but I thought they were. Hannah went through horrible experiences in high school that built up inside her. Just because many teenagers experience bullying in high school, there is no reason to believe it was unrealistic for Hannah to commit suicide since people cope differently.

13 Reasons Why is an important book to read because it shows how your actions no matter how small can affect others. If you decide to read the book, I highly recommend the audiobook because there are two narrators, one for Clay and one for Hannah when Clay is listening to the tapes.

Overall, I recommend reading Thirteen Reasons Why because it highlights difficult topics including suicide and how people’s actions can affect others.

Hey Karalee, I read 13 Reasons Why last year, having already watched the first and second series on Netflix.

For me, the book hit hard as I felt closer to Clay and his experience of Hannah’s death, perhaps because we see so many more viewpoints in the tv series that it may have distracted me a bit from his.

The tv series was admittedly difficult to watch in some places but I also saw a lot of myself in Hannah and some of the specific struggles she faced. I was glad that the producers didn’t shy away from the difficult and at times disturbing subjects as I feel that other young people (and older people too) will be able to watch it and say, ‘hey, I went through that too,’ and that maybe there are other options than suicide if they can just find the courage to speak to someone.

Loved this review. xx

Ive watched the first season of thirteen reasons why on netflix and have got it audible to listen to but havent had the chance, great review

I hope you like the book when you do listen to it!

April 23, 2019 at 7:39 pm

I read the book when I was in middle school or maybe, high school & had always considered it one of my faves. I loved the series, too & agree that it was even more emotional.

That’s nice to hear this book is one of your favs & I loved the series too!

I watched the series first and really enjoyed it but I wasn’t a huge fan of the book. Like you, I didn’t find the book particularly emotional but the series was a whole different story. I know they changed her method of suicide for the series as well to make it more shocking and I wonder what people’s reactions would have been if they’d kept with the original?

Yes the series was on a whole different level, and I think it wouldn’t have been as powerful if they kept the original method of suicide.

Didn’t they also change the hot tub scene from just the antagonist groping her in the book to a full-fledged rape in the Netflix series for some reason?

Yes in the book it’s only implied Hannah was raped, but the series made it explicit. I think they wanted the series to be more shocking like they even changed her method of suicide to be more graphic.

The way I recall that scene in the book, he ended up with reaching into her bikini bottoms, and “that was all he needed”, which I took to mean he came or something, and the way I understood it, he let her go after that. Maybe my memory is off.

If they changed it to rape for shock factor, that’s pretty distateful, and also ruins a lesson of how sexual assault doesn’t need to involve penetration to be traumatising.

I’ve not read the books, but I watched the series, and I thought they were well done, portraying the situations we all face from time to time. Yes it may not be enough for you personally to commit suicide, but it’s false to think it’s not for someone else, so I found it believable and relatable. I hope it makes more people aware of their actions no matter how small x

I’m glad to hear you thought the series was well done, and I agree that even though Hannah’s reasons were unbelievable to some people, they were enough for Hannah and possibly others going through a similar situation as her.

Extremely hard for me to read and watch, but super fulfilling and worth it!

April 20, 2019 at 8:27 pm

Yes the series was especially hard to watch, but it is worth it!

I loved the book! Personally I watched the TV series first then read the book. The thing is, it made me love the book more in my opinion. The topic is touched on very well.

April 21, 2019 at 8:02 pm

I did the same where I watched the series first, and I agree!

April 17, 2019 at 10:13 pm

I didn’t read the book but I watched the series. It is a hard watch- but also, I think it did create incredibly important conversation as you said. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Karalee!

I agree the series is hard to watch, but it is important!

I liked the book ! And when I watched the series i didn’t like the fact they deviated from the book so I couldn’t watch the second part! But listening to the book was an emotional journey by itself !!

April 21, 2019 at 8:10 pm

I’m glad to hear you liked the book! I didn’t mind the deviation in the series and I thought it made the series more emotional!

April 22, 2019 at 1:51 am

Hmmm , maybe, but sometimes i don’t like it when it is supposed to be adopted from a book and the story deviates from it😅

April 16, 2019 at 7:39 pm

I watched the series but the second season was too disturbing for me!

April 23, 2019 at 10:29 pm

The second season was definitely disturbing, but I thought it ended Hannah’s story well with her funeral.
