I am currently reading the novel Thirteen Reasons Why. I have not finished this book, I am about half way through and I love this book so far. In this novel so far the main character has killed her self, and in thirteen tapes it explains why. In the book she has changed majorly from beginning to where i am in the book right now.
She changed through out the book as in the beginning she was a happy freshman who just moved to a new town and ready to start a new adventure. She then meets her new friends and they ditch her for new ones at the beginning of the year which does not bother her to much but still irritates her. Then she meets a boy and he decides to tell the entire school that a kiss went way more then it actually did to get his reputation up. Then she meets another girl Courtney who she thought she was friends with but was just another person who ditched her in the end and was spreading more rumors about her.
She dramatically changes and becomes more depressed and not wanting to be around with the more people that let her down and put her down. She is starting not to want to hang around people because she thinks there is no one out there that means any good and just wants to be friends. She pretty much starts to give up on life and trying to do anything. She is no longer that happy girl and falls into a state of depression and not caring about anything including her self.
Hannah has changed a lot from the beginning of the book and I really have not thought about that to mcuh but now that you said something I am going to try and think about it more.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you this book is really good so far. It makes you wonder how many kids this happens to throughout school with and how they all deal with the rumors and what not.
ReplyDeleteExcellent analysis, Kelsy.
ReplyDeleteI think maybe because she was new to town and didn't have a lot of close friends, she wasn't on anyone's radar. So frustrating.
