This Post is about Alex Standall.
The guy who startet the "snowball effect", Hannah is talking about on almost every tape. But could he know?! No, he definitely couldn't. Of course, it wasn't really nice. But it was a joke. Just a joke. And Hannah has the right to be mad about Alex. But to my mind, it's Jessica who is more affected by this dumb list. At least, at that moment. She is insultet and Hannah is not. You could even see it as a compliment, that Hannah is called "Best Ass in the Freshman Class". I think that no one can blame Alex for the repercussions of his list. But nevertheless, it did affect Hannah's life. Even more than anyone could have predicted. I wouldn't like to be in his shoes. He must be feeling guilty for his entire life. But everyone on these tapes will. No one can change this.
I see what you mean, but I see it differently. I think Alex could know that the list would end in a disaster. Yes, it was just a joke, but he has to think about the consequences. I agree with your point about Jessica, because she is really showed up by the list.

AntwortenLöschenI also agree with your statement about Jessica. Since the whole book is about Hannah, nobody thinks of her, although she is the one who might be in the worst situation.
AntwortenLöschenOn the other hand I have to say that I see your argumentation about Alex differently, too. Everyone who jokes about people should imagine what he/she would feel like if they were the concerned ones.
