Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver!!

Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver

With this stunning debut novel, New York Times bestselling author Lauren Oliver emerged as one of today's foremost authors of young adult fiction. Like Jay Asher's Thirteen Reasons Why and Gayle Forman's If I Stay, Before I Fall raises thought-provoking questions about love, death, and how one person's life can affect so many others.

For popular high school senior Samantha Kingston, February 12—"Cupid Day"—should be one big party, a day of valentines and roses and the privileges that come with being at the top of the social pyramid. And it is…until she dies in a terrible accident that night.

However, she still wakes up the next morning. In fact, Sam lives the last day of her life seven times, until she realizes that by making even the slightest changes, she may hold more power than she ever imagined.



Audience: 13+

Review:
I loved watching Sam grow as a person, and continue to learn every day she repeated! At first I really didn't like her, she was...well...bitchy. I still don't like her friends, even after the end of the book. She changed, but I don't see her friends changing. Lauren Oliver does an amazing job setting up the high school scene. I could definitely relate to the environment she was laying out. Some of the moments had me cringing, but in the end I liked the way it ended. It was a happy ending in a way. I am actually extremely okay with the way it ended. After everything each character went through, the more we learned, and the more Sam learned, I think that was perfect.

I wish I had read it sooner, but at least I finally got to it! It's a must read for all, and it's an important book! Plus it just hit theaters!!!

Detective Kate Covington Series By Billie Reece

A Lullaby In The Dark A Southern Crime Thriller Ten years ago, a child serial killer—dubbed the Lullaby Man—confessed to abducting and murdering four young girls. Now in a maximum-security psychiatric hospital in East Tennessee, he’s visited regularly by Kate Covington, the detective who put him there, who won’t close the investigation until the remains of the first victim are found. Then a little girl goes missing while hiking in the woods with her dad, and Kate is called in to help. The evidence is chillingly familiar—the same photo of the girl’s tear-stained face, a letter with the same message, a smiley face, an old doll. Did they lock up the wrong guy? Is it a copycat crime?
