Book Review for Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver

Before I fall by Lauren Oliver
Release date: March 2nd, 2012
Publisher: HarperCollins
Pages: 470




Summary: What if you only had one day to live? What would you do? Who would you kiss? And how far would you go to save your own life?
     Samantha Kingston has it all: the perfect boyfriend, three amazing best friends, and the first pick of everything at Thomas Jefferson High--from the best table in the cafateria to the choicest parking spot. Friday, February 12, should just be another day in her charmed life.
    Instead, it turns out to be her last. Only, then she gets a second chance. Seven chances, in fact. Samantha keeps reliving her last day during one miraculous week, she will untangle the mystery surronding her death and discover the true value of everything she is in danger of losing.


Thoughts: Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver is a tremendous stand alone read that will keep you up until your eyes fall out. This book is undescribable, it is that good.
     I have so many mixed emotions toward this book because on one page Im balling my eyes out but on the next page, Im happy as can be! Lauren Oliver does a fantastic job in the writing categorie. She makes you feel so connected with the book that when it ends, a part of you ends with it.
     Also, look at the cover; yes, its a girls face but with the grass in front of it and her bright blue eyes a pink lips, it makes the cover so soft but beautiful. I would read this book 100 times in a row and still not get bored, garenteed.
    The main character, Samantha goes through a hard time, dieing and all, but in the end she truely is a good person. Plus, she is a really fun and awesome protagonist that keeps you interested in the story and also makes it a bit more fun then I think it would have been without her as the protagonist.
    If you havent read Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver yet, I strongly advise you to go to the store and pick this book up right NOW! Dont even think about going to the library for this read.
      I would give Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver a 5 out of 5 stars because this is an irresistable read that I think everyone in the world should read or at least give it a chance!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Recommended for people who like: Lauren Oliver, Teen drama, romance, sacrifice and contemporary
