(3.5 stars)

It was not as.. depressing (?) as I was expecting it to be (according to what I'd heard), and although I understand that Hannah going through what she went through, one would take their own life, but me, as a reader, was not able to connect to it fully. It's like.. I wasn't feeling what Hannah would have been feeling or what clay was feeling and his reactions felt.. I just didn't FEEL what he was feeling, if it makes sense? I saw their reactions and they logically made sense, but I didn't feel the same. Obviously I'm not saying that it wasn't tragic for them, but what I'm saying is that I, as a reader, didn't feel the same things clay/Hannah did. 
Regardless, this was a book with a really good and important message, and was written very well. It was a very strong and needed reminder of just how much our tiny little actions affect someone and how we should just.. be more considerate and nice and just a good person in general. Good book, would recommend, but don't go in expecting to come out depressed (which we sometimes go into a book wanting to feel so strongly, which this book, imo, won't make you feel anything too strong). Still recommend it, though.
