This book was a fantastically written young adult novel about suicide, and how a person's actions can affect others without them knowing. It was engaging, and great, and devastating.

I read this in high school and I wish I could go back to before I read it and tell myself not to. If I could rate it 0 states I would.

I had so many emotions about this book. Even now I'm not quite sure how I feel about it. I'm not sure if I liked having Clay be without fault yet still be in the book or if i wanted someone to deal with the repercussions of having someone commit suicide. I almost wanted everyone on the tapes to have a part and see how they react.

I liked it, but I preferred the show. The book is less dramatic.
