I watched the show before the book. I will say the show represented the book pretty well. I listened to the book on audio which was two different voices for Hannah and Clay which was nice. Obviously a heartbreaking story but a good read.

This book failed its mission. While it is supposed to be a cautionary tale about how we treat others, it ends up being the story of someone who was not taught how to cope with life crisis and tragedy. I relate to the character with some of my life circumstances. However, people need to be taught how to handle crisis. Suicide is not an option.
