A review by bookish_blanche
Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
5.0
An emotional and well put story
I read this one in French, but I'll review it in English anyway. I wanted to read it because everyone was talking about the series and since I couldn't watch it, I thought that reading it could be great. I really loved the book. Honestly, it was heartbreakingly beautiful and horrible. Being inside Clay's head when he discovers everything is a very good choice, one that allows the reader to fully understand the severity of Hannah's situation and the reasons that put her on this terrible path. I cried like a baby when unraveling this overwhelming story.
I however have to mention how disappointed I was in the series for the lack of depth it showed. Don't even get me started on the other seasons that, in my opinion, completely destroyed the whole point of the novel.
If you enjoyed the series, I highly recommend that you read the book so you can really understand Hannah's story.
"No one knows for certain how much impact they have on the lives of other people. Oftentimes, we have no clue. Yet we push it just the same."
