The book Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher is about a girl who records 13 tapes explaining why she decided to committed suicide. In those tapes they explain how all the people in the tapes influenced Hannah’s suicide. There are two people that really show out of the 13 people. They are the main character Clay and Byron. The reason why Clay stood out of all of the people in the recordings was because of his positive effect on Hannah. In the book Hannah was at a going away party. She met Clay for the first time and she began to talk to him and not hate him. She also kissed him because she felt so comfortable around him. Clay unlike any of the other 12 people in the recordings did something nice for Hannah and did not talk or believe the reputation that she had inside of the school. But the mistake that Clay made was when Hannah was struggling and screaming. He asked her what was wrong but she told him to get out. But he regrets going out of the room because they never spoke again after that. Unlike all of the other people he was actually a good person to her because he actually had a crush on her and did not get a chance to tell Hannah that he loved her because she killed herself. The reason why Byron stood out of all of the people in the recordings was because he had the most negative effect on Hannah. Ever since the candy or valentines grams came out and he landed a date with Hannah. After that he began to go too fast to be that young. He wanted to touch her inappropriate way that made her feel extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to go too fast just to get a peek at something. But near the end of the book he molested her in a hot tub about hours before she committed suicide. So she felt that her reputation caught up with her and she deserved to die but she did not. Bryon was a huge impact on Hannah’s suicide. In conclusion Clay and Bryon had a huge impact on the suicide of Hannah in different ways. These ways were in a good way for Clay but with Byron he should have been arrested for what he did to Hannah.
