Thirteen Reasons Why by Asher Jay6/7/2023 ![]() ![]() The rear of DJ has a Gordon Korman quote and no mention of Added Bonus Material. This quote is by Chris Crutcher and is present for at least the first 9 printings of the true first edition. As for Dust Jackets, the True First Edition, first printing DJ has a red quote in the upper right hand corner on the front. The 4th edition is the 10 year anniversary edition which is completely different than the first 3 editions. The third edition has added a half-title page with a picture of a cassette. The Second edition (whose copyright page also looks like a first) has illustrated map endpapers, 4 pages of praise before the first page of story text and an added section in the rear of the book with added material like 13 questions for the author. The first edition has blank endpapers up through at least 9 printings. So the copyright pages while not identical would still lead one to believe they have a first edition however once you get past this, the differences are easily distinguishable. ![]() Both also show the last printing date as 2007. The first edition and the second edition have similar copyright pages with a full numberline 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. This title is notorious for being misclassified as a first edition, first printing.and for good reason. ![]()
