▲'''''Before I Fall''''' is a book by Lauren Oliver about [[Alpha Bitch|Samantha Kingston]], who is pretty, popular, has the best friends in the world and an amazing boyfriend. It seems that Friday, February 12, is going to be just another normal day, with school, friends, and partying. However, it ends with a horrible car crash that [[Foregone Conclusion|kills Sam]] and goodness-knows who else.

No one but her has any idea that she died the day before. Sam [[Groundhog Day Loop|relives the same day for a week]], learning more about the effects of her actions and realizing she didn't know as much about anything, including her self, friends, and schoolmates, than she thought she knew. A well received book that refuses to let characters fall into teen stereotypes, and is written by somebody who clearly understands actual teens.
