Characters
Clay Jensen is one of the main characters of this novel. He received the tapes that Hannah made, “ A shoebox-sized package is propped against the front door at an angle.”, “Inside the shoebox a rolled-up tube of bubble-wrap. I unroll that and discover seven loose audiotapes.” This is a very important part of the book because the whole novel is based on those audiotapes. “ But I never want to hear those tapes again. though her voice will never leave my head. And the houses, the streets and the high school will always be there to remind me.” ( pg. 3. Jay Asher). After clay receiving the tapes and listening to them he never wanted to hear Hannah or her tapes again.
