Monday-
Hannah Baker was a high school student who committed suicide. No one saw it coming, no one expected it, no one noticed or determined the signs of thoughts of suicide that Hannah portrayed. Before she committed this tragic event, Hannah left behind thirteen recorded messages that explained the thirteen reasons to why she k**ed herself; the reasons to why she was driven over the edge. Each of these messages were copied to tapes, each side of the tape was directed towards one specific person in which caused one of the reasons.

The tapes went in order, from the beginning of Hannah's problems, to the end. Hannah mailed the tapes to the first person the day she ended her life. Afterwards that person was asked to mail the set of tapes to the person mentioned on the second tape (or other side), and so on and so on. Many people have many different outlooks on what this book teaches us, or what this book is about or has to say and many have different opinions on what story of Hannah's is the worst or caused the most impact in her d**h.
wedsnday- Mr. Porter, the one Hannah tried reaching out to before she completely gave up. Hannah attempted to talk to Mr. Porter about what was going on with her life and the suicidal thoughts going through her head. You need to consider the possibility of moving beyond this (Page 278, Thirteen Reasons Why, Jay Asher) was what Mr. Porter told Hannah when she told him about some of her problems. Mr. Porter was Hannah's last chance for receiving help; he was her one last try. All Hannah had to say to Mr. Porter was I need to get on with things, Mr Porter. If nothings going to change
thursday- On the tapes in which Hannah recorded the thirteen reasons to why she committed suicide, Clay Jensen was included. A lot of people say that Clay Jensen did not belong on the tapes, due to the fact that he was not exactly a reason in Hannah's d**h. For some people, however, Clay did belong on the tapes, not because he played a part in her suicidal thoughts and actions, but because he deserved to know the truth. It was clear that Clay had strong feelings for Hannah, and so it was only right for Hannah to create a tape directed towards him, so he would know the reasons to why she ended her life and to why she did not accept Clay's help. Hannah's tape dedicated to Clay was a way for her to apologize to him for freaking out at him randomly at the party in which they began to really talk and get to know one another, also in which they kissed for the first time. Clay's tape allowed him to know how Hannah felt at that party with him and how she felt before and after the party
friday- conclusion, Hannah's d**h was caused by various people, some could have prevented it, while others just continued to add to the reasons for her to make everything stop for herself. There is no one in specific to blame for why she k**ed herself; everyone had some part in it. From the people who were in little problems such as Justin Foley, her first kiss, to Bryce Walker, the first one she let touch her in a s**ual way. Each person is connected and each of Hannah's issue's connected in some way. The main point of this book and of this essay though, is to show that little things, words and actions, can impact one person more than it appears it can.
