Before I Fall
Blurb
In this Groundhog Day meets Mean Girls teen hybrid, Sam Kingston is pretty, popular, and has a seemingly perfect boyfriend. But after a late-night party everything goes terribly wrong, and the life that she lived is gone forever. Or is it?At the start of Before I Fall, Sam is self-consumed and oblivious about the impact of her actions on others. But as she repeatedly experiences slightly altered versions of the hours leading up to her death—and her relationships with friends, family, and formerly overlooked classmates bloom, end, or shift—it’s impossible not to feel for the girl whose life ends too soon. Oliver’s adept teen dialogue and lively prose make for a fast, page-turning story in which the reader is every bit as emotionally invested as Sam. --Jessica Schein

the book as a total was fine. the story was strong and had a good message. however, i feel like the ending was not great. no spoilers here but you will NOT like the end. i feel in love with characters and was just let down by events. I also felt the vast amount of sex was unnecessary. typically i'm not bothered by sex. for some reason this book was different. *shrugs*. i hear there is a movie of this book so i will most likely watch that. I have certain people i know would like this book, so it depends on your personality if you will like it. hope this helps :)
