How far can people go for what they want?..... I am Sam Andrews. Samantha Andrews. I am sixteen and study in Kenterly High. I am your average teenage with average problems, homework, crushes, fights, pimples, heartbreaks, except one thing......I am dead.
This is the story of how I died, how people made me die, yeah, yeah, call me weak, call me a coward, blame it on me....how do you tell a dead person they are weak? So as far as death stories go, I hope its a fun one, as fun as someone's death can be that is, but who knows, people might go far for what they want, too far, and I am willing to go farther.......
*Author's Note- 'Sup guys? This story is my take on Jay Asher's epic 'Thirteen Reasons Why'. I read it and needless to say I was impressed!! The idea of making people realize that their actions have consequences, so much that they can change a person's life or end it... seemed rather appealing to me, so I decided to take inspiration from the same and create this. This is my first novel, so I will really look forward to feed backs for improvement. Hope you like it!*
