Story
It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the 10th annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to out charm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute. The odds are against him. He’s been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low.

"Ninety-five days, and then I'll be safe. I wonder whether the procedure will hurt. I want to get it over with. It's hard to be patient. It's hard not to be afraid while I'm still uncured, though so far the deliria hasn't touched me yet. Still, I worry. They say that in the old days, love drove people to madness. The deadliest of all deadly things: It kills you both when you have it and when you don't."

Story
Lyra's story begins in the Haven Institute, a building tucked away on a private island off the coast of Florida that from a distance looks serene and even beautiful. But up close, the locked doors, military guards, and biohazard suits tell a different story. In truth Haven is a clandestine research facility where thousands of replicas, or human models, are born, raised, and observed. When a surprise attack is launched on Haven, two of its young experimental subjects - Lyra, or 24, and the boy known only as 72 - manage to escape.

Definately a Must "Read"
What other book might you compare Before I Fall to and why?
It was like a Butterfly Effect/Groudnhogs day type of book. in fact she mentions both in the story!
Any additional comments?
This was unexpectedly a great book. I'd never heard anything from Lauren Oliver or Sarah Drew and was immediately drawn into the story. Not being from the popular group in high school, it was interesting to get such an insight. As she keeps reliving the day, she sees how her actions have ripple effects. It demonstrates how everyone's actions make a difference whether you are popular, goth, geek, or outcast.
The narration was really good. At times the voices for the friends ran together as they all "spoke" with a lazy, whiney cadence. Sarah Drew did a great job distinguishing everyone though and the way she narrated the internal struggle with Sam was top notch.

Great coming of age story that reminds readers what it is to be young
I really REALLY enjoyed this book and have already recommended it to all my friends. The narrator performs the different character voices perfectly, changing her pitch and expression to match the different personalities. The story itself is similar to If I Stay, with a young girl at the beginning of her life trying to figure out what's really important and how to deal with facing death. It's sweet, honest, intriguing, just a little bit sad, romantic, and seriously addicting. It makes you remember being young, especially if your a woman reminiscing on being a teenage girl, and perfectly catches the struggles of high school, of growing up, and of really becoming yourself, who you were meant to be. The leaves you just wanting a bit more, which all good books should do. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a meaningful read.
SPOILER ALERT - DONT READ FURTHER UNLESS TOU WANT THE ENDING RUINED.
Not going to lie...I DEFINITELY wanted Sam to live in the end, to get a real chance to be with Kent, to right all her wrongs, and become the person she dreamed of, as well as see the future she lost. BUT I also understand that having her finally be at rest in the end is more realistic, more relatable, and more honest. But that doesn't mean I'm happy about it!! :) Still love the book, but the romantic in me wishes she got her happy ending.

Me of the most thought provoking books I've listened to
I would say it's disturbing but that's in a good way. Supposedly for young adults but excellent for all ages. A must listen to!

Groundhog Day meets If I Stay
I hate to compare this to 2 very dynamically different works of fiction but the only things that come to mind are the drama of If I Stay and the repeating events of Groundhog Day.
This novel explores the big question of what would you do if you knew today was your last day, would you continue to do what you always do and go with the flow and play the popularity game or would you actually follow your heart and make a difference for good.
We start the story with Samantha starting her day of Friday February 12th like normal as one of the super popular girls who criticize and make fun of others she dates a very popular guy her life seems perfect until it tragically comes to an end with a sudden car wreck after leaving a party with her friends.
She then wakes up in her bed her alarm ringing she checks her phone and it is Friday again her day is starting over. Is it Deja Vu is her life literally repeating days.?Will she change the events of the day?
There is a lot of good character development with all of the main characters and Samantha spends lots of time figuring out who she really is as she relives her last day 7 times.
This is a good listen/read however it is not my favorite it is a little too teeny genre for me. I would however recommend this for teenager readers.

Good but I must have missed a category.
Well written and performed but I must have missed something when I selected this. There should have been a category for teen chic lit maybe as that would be the appropriate audience. However, I'm a fan of the time loop genre so I enjoyed it.

Great Book and great Narration EXCEPT....
Loved everything about this book except 3 voices: Kent. Just kinda pathetic.
Then. The teachers. The Coach and the one trying to catch kids smoking. Almost ruined the entire thing. It was SO SO SO SO SO SO awful and annoying. So. Bad.
