I recommend Thirteen Reasons Why. 
 ***** 
 If my love were an ocean, 
 there would be no more land. 
 If my love were a desert, 
 you would see only sand. 
 If my love were a star- 
 late at night, only light. 
 And if my love could grow wings, 
 I'd be soaring in flight. 
 HYPNOTIZING. 
 Thirteen Reasons Why is one remarkable read! Although it won't make my favorites list, i have to give proper due to 13RW for reasons that: (1) it did not glorify the idea of suicide, (2) it fully captured the horrific realities of high school life, and (3) it gave hope no matter how somber the story got. 13RW is a must-read for every teen, that's for sure. 
 I was prepared to feel sorry for Hannah, but that did not happen. If anything, I was intimidated by her character! Reading her POV was so addicting because the victim of a suicide doesn't act like a victim at all. Hannah is angry, bitter, revengeful. Asher made me want to get to know her better but alas, she's dead. :( Clay is one character so defined that only a guy like him can handle Hannah's secret and still come out alive. He's confused, regretful, full of remorse. I love how he broke down... and slowly he found a way to deal after Hannah's death. Sometimes i got confused following Hannah's and Clay's story (they are told simultaneously) and that kinda made my reading a little challenging. 
 The storyline is very realistic, too realistic for me that the part where Hannah explained why Clay is on the tapes, my chest tightened and my eyes threatened to cry. Of all the reasons why Hannah took her life, there's one that scared the crap out of me: Bryce Walker. Jay Asher, you are one effective writer to make a normal guy like Bryce frightened me. 
 Thirteen Reasons Why is a very emotional read so make sure you pick it up when you are tolerant for some gritty, heart-wrenching story. You think those harmless things you did and those little words you said way back in high school is forgotten? Think again. Because someone's life might have changed by your actions, inactions and words for the better. or for the worst.
