Description
They say 'live every day as if it's your last'—but you never actually think it's going to be. At least I didn't.
The thing is, you don't get to know when it happens. You don't remember to tell your family that you love them or—in my case—remember to say goodbye to them at all.
But what if, like me, you could live your last day over and over again? Could you make it perfect? If your whole life flashed before your eyes, would you have no regrets? Or are there some things you'd want to change...?
Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver explores these questions through a gripping narrative that challenges you to reconsider what you might do with the time that seemingly slips away.
