You can’t stop the future.
You can’t rewind the past.
The only way to learn the secret . . . is to press play.

Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a strange package with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers several cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker—his classmate and crush—who committed suicide two weeks earlier. Hannah's voice tells him that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he'll find out why.

Clay spends the night crisscrossing his town with Hannah as his guide. He becomes a firsthand witness to Hannah's pain, and as he follows Hannah’s recorded words throughout his town, what he discovers changes his life forever.©2007 Jay Asher; (P)2007 Random House, Inc.

Good Book for Parents & Teens to Share

I enjoyed the idea, format, and execution of this book. I felt mixed emotions about the narrator, as was intended and this opened up a good dialogue between me and my 13 yr old daughter. Worth your credit if you're interesting in understanding the inner workings of a young girl's mind.

Felt like you were listening to the actual tapes..

The story is great, but what is fantastic about this book is the narration, they could've just hired some guy or girl to just read the book into a microphone and get away with it, but they didn't, you can see how much care and work is put in this narration from chapter 1, both voices (Joel Johnstone and Debra Wiseman) do an excellent job portraying their characters, and it feels like you are listening to the tapes in the book exactly how they are meant to be...

meh

Honestly thought somthing was wrong because of how it just cut off at the end. This is one of those rare times the show is better then the book.

If you want to truly experience this book to its fullest, please get this audiobook.

The book alone has so much character and presence with just the words on the page, but once it's read out loud, the story really comes to life.

The whole idea of this book is Clay is listening to tapes, so having a real recording to listen to Hannah's words made this story truly beautiful, tragically beautiful. I read this book years ago but wanted to reread it before I watched the new tv adaption on Netflix. I'm in college right now and don't have a lot of time to sit down and read, so I decided to get the audiobook and listen throughout my day. And boy, I wasn't ready for how amazing this was. I was taken aback at how incredible this story is when read aloud. It's like night and day how this audiobook makes this book come to life. You're experiencing Hannah's tapes with Clay and you get to hear his reaction along side it. It's incredible and I recommend this to anyone.

Unexplainable

This book left me speechless, it is now one of my favorite books I have read. ❤️
