Th1rteen R3asons Why

Okay, so after i finished Go Ask Alice, i started a new book, and it just so happens that i finished it already. My mom says its because i'm so good at concentrating so i read really well. I have no idea why i go through book so fast.

Here is a blog from amazon.com, just to give you a little taste, before i start explaioning it my way :)
When Clay Jenson plays the casette tapes he received in a mysterious package, he's surprised to hear the voice of dead classmate Hannah Baker. He's one of 13 people who receive Hannah's story, which details the circumstances that led to her suicide. Clay spends the rest of the day and long into the night listening to Hannah's voice and going to the locations she wants him to visit. The text alternates, sometimes quickly, between Hannah's voice (italicized) and Clay's thoughts as he listens to her words, which illuminate betrayals and secrets that demonstrate the consequences of even small actions. Hannah, herself, is not free from guilt, her own inaction having played a part in an accidental auto death and a rape. The message about how we treat one another, although sometimes heavy, makes for compelling reading. Give this to fans of Gail Giles psychological thrillers.

So anyways, this is an extremely good story. I mean AMAZING. This Clay guy like hannah, and he always liked her, but was afraid that the rumors of her being a complete totaly whore/slut were true. These tapes that she mails tell about the hurt she experienced, and Clay goes to the places that she starred on a map and visualises her pain and suffering. He completely loved her, an throughout the book keeps saying in his mind that he could have helped her, only if she had told him she was contemplating suicide. I don't want to give away the whole story Mrs.Faughey, because you might want to read the book (which you totally should because it is wonderful), so I am done, and i think i am going to start a new book now. i dont know which one. I think my mom has secret life of bees. She read it, and loves it. I also have a few books from on and off the list. i guess i will look around. I am also looking on amazon for books. hopefully i will fall upon some really good ones.

Heyy Allison(: I'm so jealous that you read books so quickly. Even though I like a book, it still takes me a long time to read it :( Anyways, I think that Thirteen Reasons Why sounds like a great book. Maybe after reading my book, I'll read the book that you read. The summary of the book that you wrote made me very interested, and I'm glad that you didn't give away the ending(: I hope that in the future, I will get to read Thirteen Reasons Why, and tell others about it.

Hello Allison,
I thin its great how you lie to read, i do too, i always have- still like Jessica i usually dont read a book so quicky unless i have a lot of free time on my hands. It seems like this book that you were speaking about is a deep, interesting book. You really made me want to read it. I will consider reading it after i finish my book. =)
