Other issues I had were the major gaps of guilt between characters that featured on the tapes (Someone saying you have a hot ass has the same weight as being a rape bystander apparently. Oh and she was a rape bystander too but apparently she is off the hook but Justin isn't). And why the flip Hannah doesn't feel Bryce should get his comeuppance is beyond me! You're dead Hannah so why do you care? She wanted the tapes to be passed along which is fine but how about sending a tape solely about Bryce to the cops?? He should go to prison so he doesn't rape another girl ever, ever again. Talk about misdirected anger and blame Hannah! That truly pissed me off. Also, Hannah's lack of sympathy or concern for Jessica was bothersome for me. She has time to make the tapes but did she ever stop and think maybe Jessica might need some support too? And she doesn't even think about the impact of divulging Jessica's rape to all these people will have on Jessica. She may or mayn't remember what happened but now, at least 13 people know about her assault. Just awful.
The highlight for me was at the end when Clay sees Skye and goes to check in with her (well we assume he is). I'm hoping Jessica is next on his list to chat with.
** In case you are wondering why I scored such a flawed book more than a 1/5, it is because I feel like this book at least creates dialogue about suicide in teens and for that alone I think it is not so bad.
