Every teen and adult who has watched the Netflix show, 13 Reasons Why is aware of Hannah Baker. Often known as the girl who gave up to easily, she is widely misunderstood. She was a friend you could always count on than just a girl who was pretty, sharp and compassionate. Despite of that as brutal as high school usually is, people didn’t hesitate in judging her and making her life worse just because of a rumour, eventually making every friend she had turn against her, which led to the circumstances where she decided to take her own life.
But before doing that she explained everyone how it all went wrong and exactly when and where it went wrong. She left a box with tapes about how people she considered friends let her down and how a bunch of situations made her feel like she had no other option but to die. We get to know about all these tapes from the reaction and perspective of Clay Jensen, one of Hannah’s friends. We get to know about Hannah’s life and how it wasn’t always as awful as we thought it’d be. At the end of the show because of these tapes and the reaction of people on those tapes we are able to comprehend why she did what she did but we never really get to know her as a person, which perhaps is also what she felt from the ones around her. We have no idea about what was her life like before these awful experiences including having no idea about what she thought of herself. Though there are very few instances of her life shown in the second season where we come to know about her life before these experiences but that doesn’t seem to be enough to satisfy the audience in terms of actually knowing Hannah Baker.
