Hey,
this is my first post about the novel "Thirteen Reason Why", which deals the reasons why the teenager Hannah Baker commits suicide.
In the second chapter Clay Jensen hears the Cassette 1B and Hannah tells him the second reason, why she commits suicide. The reason is that Alex Standel, a classmate from Hannah, makes a "hot-or not" list and nominates Hannah from the"hottest Ass"in the freshman class, and because of that another classmate touches her ass and harass her.
I understand her anger and humiliation, because it is not okay to reduce anyone of his appearance. Her character is more important than a "hot ass". But I think it is not a reason to kill herself, there are a lot of options to handle this. she could says that a teacher or her parents, they could helps her that the people stop harass her. So I come to the conclusion that Alex is the reason why the guy touches Hannah, but it is not a reason to commit suicide.
I agree with you that this is not a reason to commit succide and that her charackter is more than a ''hot ass''.And I'm the opinion to that there are so much options to loose this situation.

Could + infinitive : She could tell it to a teacher or to her parents, they could help her so that the people stop harassing her.
Well structured! Good line of thought.
