Jay Asher's Thirteen Reasons Why

Dear Ms. Lidon, A little while back, I finished Unremembered by Jessica Brody. This book is about a man made 16-year-old girl named Seraphina who is found alive, floating among the the damage after Freedom Airlines flight 121’s flew down into the Pacific Ocean. Being the only survivor of the crash, with no injuries or memories of boarding the plane or her life before the accident, Sera finds out that she has the ability to run more than twice as fast than an average human and solve complex math problems like Goldbach’s conjecture. Seraphina is dealing with the fact that many of the questions she has about the things around her will never have a satisfying answer. The one thing that is on her mind is if trusting Lyzender, a stranger who claims to know her is the right decision, and why Diotech, a confidential technology conglomerate, is something she should be running away from. In the end, she decides to trust Lyzneder when he is captured by the two men from Diotech that were following Sera earlier

Although I enjoyed reading the book a great deal, I like the plot of Thirteen Reasons Why more. The plot of Unremembered is similar to most novels I would usually find very boring. Many of the popular young adult novels I see today all have characters that rebel against people that are more powerful than they are, and I think that is basically what this book is about. Because most of this book was almost predictable, nothing surprised me. The only thing I liked about the book was that it was part of a series. A lot of things Seraphina’s past and the relationships she had with people in her past were mentioned, but unexplained. I think part of the reason the novel was written like that was is so Jessica Brody can explain some of the things other readers are not sure about. Unlike Jay Asher’s book, I do not find it as exciting after reading it, and I would not read it
