There have always been ample discussions and numerous debates when referring to what society considers as less significant genders; and for a fairly longtime, their empowerment has been limited to words and quotes.The American novelist, Jay Asher, with his debut book Thirteen Reasons Why, which has also been adapted into a popular web series, aims to change that course and has succeeded considerably, owing to the establishment of a website (www.thirteenreasonswhy.com), which intends to raise awareness among the young adults about mental well-being and reach out to those faced with the crisis. The novel is built in an agonizing background exploring infinite emotions that arise due to a series of events, which lead a high ? school girl to take her own life.The paper orients towards citing and analyzing the stories heard on the daily basis, which are often looked the other way by our civilization, and how they leave an impression on young minds, especially young women and the fraction ofyoung society who under go unspeakable unfortunate occurrences in the course of discovering their sexual identities.The creation is not merely a story but aN eulogy to all the suicidal events that could have been avoided with a mere dialogue, thus making it a work of first order.
