Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

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. Dobrez, Cindy

Review

“Heavy but compelling. . . . Asher’s novel asks us to look at how petty cruelty can deal crushing blows.” Miami Herald

“Wonderfully realistic in his writing, Asher offers teens and parents alike a great story on an important topic.” 
Green Bay Press-Gazette

“It is a brilliant debut that will leave readers feeling a sense of remorse for Hannah, guilt for Clay, and hope for the lasting lesson of the story.” 
Bookazine

“Breakneck pace and dizzying emotion.”
 —School Library Journal

“[Hannah’s] pain is gut-wrenchingly palpable. . . . Asher has created an entrancing character study and a riveting look into the psyche of someone who would make this unfortunate choice. A brilliant and mesmerizing debut from a gifted new author.” 
Kirkus Reviews, starred review and Editor’s Choice

“Readers won’t be able to pull themselves away.” 
Publishers Weekly

“Asher's ability to convey the anguish of someone who was left behind is truly remarkable.”
 —Book Page

Thirteen Reasons Why is a mystery, eulogy, and ceremony. Twenty or thirty times, I snapped the book shut when a sentence, an image, or a line of dialogue was too beautiful and painful. But I, afraid and curious, would always return to this amazing book. I know, in years to come, I will often return to this book.” —Sherman Alexie, bestselling author of The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian

“Every once in a while you come across a book that you can’t get out of your mind, one you have to rush back to if you must put it down for some reason. Jay Asher’s 
Thirteen Reasons Why is one of those books, and is at the very top of my personal Must-Read list.” —Ellen Hopkins, bestselling author of Tricks,IdenticalCrankBurnedImpulse, and Glass

“A spectacular first novel. Jay Asher tells his story with such honesty and simplicity that the tragedy feels shatteringly real.” 
—Gordon Korman, author ofSon of the Mob and Jake, Reinvented

2.0 out of 5 stars I could probably give you more than 13 reasons as to why I didn't like this book.
Reviewed in India on May 30, 2019
This book supposedly is about mental health when in reality, it's just glorification of suicide.
It follows this girl, Hannah who commits suicide on the basis of "thirteen reasons" which are co related to each other and thinks that it's justified to make tapes regarding said reasons.
1. The person listed in the tape would go down this guilt trip which will alter THEIR mental health.
2. The reasons, alone, were really small things that people wouldn't really have noticed.
3. Putting blame on teenagers for these reasons could actually provide as a really big reason for them.
Even though this book is dealing with "depression", the actual word wasn't once mentioned in the book. Not once.
Moreover, it didn't make sense that a person who's mentally exhausted and numb to things around would ploy this mastermind to have these tapes delivered to the people AND to make sure that they listened to it. Sounds something like revenge, doesn't it?
