Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher

Clay gets a box of cassette tapes in the mail. He is instructed to listen to them and then pass them on to the next person in the story told on the tapes.
A girl he had a huge crush on since Freshman year has recently committed suicide and the tapes are a letter with the reasons why she did it.
The moral is to be aware of how you treat people because you never know what it might do and the snowball it may start rolling down on the person or the other people around.
This is a YA book but some of the content would, in my opinion, be too much for younger tweens and teens. Heck at times it felt too much for me.
