There has been an absolute hype on the latest 13 Reasons Why By: Jay Asher. What are your thoughts?

For me personally, I'm slightly torn in the middle. It's a great way that there's more awareness to bullying because this happens EVERYWHERE. It's inevitable to prevent bullying completely but there are ways to help stop future instances from happening.

For one, the concept of 13 Reasons Why can be thought of as very eye opening. Second, this can actually spark unwanted memories for some people who have gone through something like this. The last episode for me personally was very hard to watch. For instance - Hannah dies differently in the book. Why make a different suicide? What was the reasoning behind it?

Reading the book and watching the film, they both left my heart conflicted. What are your thoughts?
