Before I Fall - Tapa blanda

'In her book, Before I Fall, Oliver has the ability to almost pluck the reader from their here and now and implant them into the life, musings and story of 17 year old Samantha Kingston, who dies in a horrific car crash on the way home from a party on a rainy February night... An honest, heartwarming and impeccable read with believable characters and a very special storyline, Before I fall is a fantastic debut novel, and one I could not put down. Even in the meeting with my bridesmaid dress maker. Yep, it was that good.' * Sarah Ayoub blogger, WordSmith Lane. * I loved this engaging, compelling, heartbreaking novel, and can't see how any reader could fail to be won over by Sam as she relives her last day again and again and again. I didn't want BEFORE I FALL to end. * Carolyn Mays, Director of Fiction * I could feel the shivers down my spine from the first chapter, and I couldn't put it down. A really powerful read * Auriol Bishop, Creative Director * This beautiful story had me gripped right from the first page - full of both tragic and touching 'what-if's', it takes you right back to the intense and often cruel teen-age experiences at high school. * Rebecca Cooney, International Sales & Marketing Manager * Although I'm not the target reader I found myself engrossed and moved by this marvellous book * Jamie Hodder-Williams *

Sam Kingston is dead. Except she isn't. On a rainy February night, Sam is killed in a horrific car crash. But instead of seeing a tunnel of light, she wakes up in her own bed, on the morning of the same day. Forced to live through the same events - the drive to school, skipping class, the fateful party - she struggles to alter the outcome, but wakes up again on the day of the crash. What follows is the story of a girl who comes of age in a matter of days. Who discovers, through heartbreaking insights, the consequences of her every action. Of a girl who dies young, but in the process learns how to live. And who falls in love . . . a little too late.
