13 Reasons Why book review

Image
 After coming to know about the Netflix series and all its hype,I finally decided to buy this book and give it a try.This book went to the top of my tbr (to-be-read) pile mostly because of the hype its Netflix counterpart was getting.So,anyways,let's get into the main review....                        The plot: This is a young adult contemporary novel which contains dark themes such as suicide.In this novel the main character receives a box of tapes.The tapes contain reasons why a girl from his school,Hannah Baker,decided to end her life.These reasons are actually 13 people because of whom she attempts suicide,the main character,Clay being one of them.The plot progresses as Clay tries to figure out how he is involved with all this.I am not going to tell anything more about the plot as I might spoil part of the novel.

This book   ,which is written by John Green, is his no. 1 best-selling novel. The reason why I am reviewing this book first on my blog is because it is easy to get into this book (and also because it is one of my favourites). The book is over 300 pages long which may not be a big deal for readers including myself, but it may seem intimidating for people who don’t have a habit of reading. In spite of me knowing this, I request readers as well as non-readers to read my review and then give the book a try.

The most common one is the one I have put a photo of. All the versions except the movie cover one are similar   ,so it doesn’t really matter which one is available at your local bookstore.
