This is an essay reviewing the book entitled "Thirteen Reasons Why" based on a novel written by Jay Asher published in 2007 telling the stories of a teenage girl high school student named Hannah Baker who committed suicide by drinking pills while exposed to abuse and psychological breakdowns from her high school friends. Before Hannah Baker did what she did, she recorded seven audio cassettes, each containing Side A and Side B recounting the events leading up to her death. After finishing recording, she packaged the audio cassettes nicely, placed them in a small box, and mailed them to a nearby post office without her address written on them. The audio tapes transmitted thirteen people who were on his list and who had contributed in some way to his death. Say no to plagiarism.

He took the box inside with him into the kitchen, took a pair of scissors and opened the box and, to his surprise, saw seven audio cassettes. He asked his father if he could use his boom box to play them. His father let him use the boom box, so he started listening to cassettes. Clay Jensen was shocked when he heard the voice of Hannah Baker, who recently passed away. She began by saying, "Hello boys and girls, Hannah Baker here, live and in stereo...I'm about to tell you my life story." More specifically, why my life ended. And if you listen to these tapes, you are one of the reasons why. I’m not saying which tape takes you into the story but don’t worry if you get this cute little box your name will appear, I promise.” His instructions for listening to the recordings were quite simple. She said rule number one is to listen and rule number two is to pass them along until they reach the last person on the list. To begin, cassette 1 side A, Hannah Baker tells the story of the betrayal of her first kiss with Justin. Foley. Justin Foley accidentally insulted Hannah Baker by spreading sex rumors and photos of their first meeting at Eisenhower Park. On side B of cassette 1, tell us about Alex Standall who ranked Hannah as the best ass in the freshman class, on purpose to make Jessica Davis jealous and ruin her relationship with Hannah and luckily it worked like he thought so. However, Hannah said publishing the list wasn't too traumatic and she was able to survive. She thought it was a joke and the people who had a copy also knew it was a joke. However, what mattered was the consequences of what Alex had done. For example, after Hannah was voted the best donkey, it changed the way people view and approach her. Like the waiter at Blue Spot Liquor. He touched Hannah unwantedly by grabbing her butt and wrist, then spun her on his shoulder and did all sorts of mischief to her. On Side A of Tape 2, Jessica Davis heard false rumors that Hannah was hanging out with Alex Standall. Therefore, Jessica Davis falsely and publicly accused her of her breakup with Alex and the destruction of her friendship with Jessica Davis. On side B of cassette 2, she tells the story of Tyler Down, a photographer who stalked her by repeatedly taking pictures outside her window while Courtney Crimsen massaged her, eventually.
