Q4 Outside Reading #2
Since last time that I posted I have only read about different things that people did to Hannah that added to why she committed suicide. One of the reasons was because in a certain class people would write you nice notes for compliments and one guy thought it would be funny to take all of Hannah's notes so that she didn't get any. You would think this wouldn't be that big of a deal but at the state Hannah was in she needed as much encouragement and compliments as she could get and she wasn't getting any. I think this shows that just the little stuff can add up and even if you do something to someone and you don't think it is that big of a deal you don't know what else is going on in their life and what you did could just add to the mess. I am learning a lot from this book, a lot about just being nice to people you don't know very well. Also just be nice to everyone cause you don't know what state they are in and you could save a life by just being nice to someone and acknowledging them.

O4 Outside Reading #1
I am reading the book Thirteen Reasons why. This book is about a girl who commits suicide and leaves behind suicide tapes about why she did this. She sent the tapes to 12 people who had something to do with her suicide. This book takes you through one of the boys listening to the tapes, and he doesn't know why he is in the tapes.. yet. So far in the book I have read through about three peoples tapes and why they had a part to do with her suicide. I am really enjoying the suspense in the book but so far its not getting my attention that well. The reasons so far as to why she committed suicide are not that big of deals, every person has to go through a few of these experiences so I am waiting for there to be more reasons why she did what she did.
