13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher

Our next meeting we'll be talking about this book:


Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
"Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a strange package with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers several cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker - his classmate and crush - who committed suicide two weeks earlier. Hannah's voice tells him that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he'll find out why. Clay spends the night crisscrossing his town with Hannah as his guide. He becomes a firsthand witness to Hannah's pain, and learns the truth about himself-a truth he never wanted to face."

If you'd like a copy, please let me know. Our next meeting will be the first week of January!!

Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson

We'll be reading Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson for our next meeting, which will be at the end of December/beginning of January.



I overrode the votes for this one...sorry, but I think it's important to read and discuss!

If you want a copy, please contact Natalie to get your own!



Melinda Sordino busted an end-of-summer party by calling the cops. Now her old friends won't talk to her, and people she doesn't even know hate her from a distance. The safest place to be is alone, inside her own head. But even that's not safe. Because there's something she's trying not to think about, something about the night of the party that, if she let it in, would blow her carefully constructed disguise to smithereens. And then she would have to speak the truth.
