As I Fall
Lauren Oliver
End of Book
I think the main theme of this book is change. Sam was pretty much a mean girl. She thought she was the best because she was popular. After she died she had to live her last day 7 times. At first she's just the same as she was when she was alive. Then after a few days she starts talking to people she never talked to and learned things about her best friends that made her realize what a jerk she was. By the end of the book she even saves a girl who she used to make fun of from committing suicide.

This seems like a really good book. I kind of want to read it now. So basically, she teaches herself not to take the people and things around her for granted? Good theme(:
ReplyDeleteThis sound so good! Who makes her relive the day seven times?
ReplyDeleteI think that this is a good book that many people can learn a lesson from and hopefully many of them will learn not to make fun, because everything you do has a consequence.
