Awesome!

[Trinity]

I am just about to download the audio book from my library. ☺

[Jonel]

YAY!!!

[Jonel]

I officially have my copy now, but of course, that means I'm running a few days behind on being able to start tomorrow. :( I'll be playing catch-up on the weekend.

[Jonel]

lol. I've got a few pre-scheduled blog posts that I have to finish the book for before the weekend. :D Mostly because I read divergent & Free Falling last weekend.

[Trinity]

I will have to start on the weekend as well.

[Laura]

I hope to join you too. I got my copy in the mail today. Just in time!

[Jonel]

yay!

[Trinity]

Yay!! ☺

[Laura]

Has anyone else started yet? I'm only about 50 pages in

[Katie]

I'm about 50 pages in too.

[Jonel]

I have it on my coffee table..... Bookmarked to the first page. lol. Does that count? I'm awful, I know. I hope I get to it soon.

[Trinity]

I hope to start tomorrow, I am trying to get at least halfway into Allegiant.

[Trinity]

I am finally getting to this this :)

[Laura]

Finished! Can't wait to hear what everyone thought about it.

[Katie]

I'm about a fourth of the way through since I still have school and homework.

[Trinity]

I am trying to continue the book but since it is an audio book I find it harder to have time to actually listen to it.

[Trinity]

I am currently on chapter 3, I will post my thoughts once I get to chapter 5. ☺

[Trinity]

Chapters 1-5 (view spoiler)[I did not like the beginning of this book. I thought it was horrible and I was so annoyed especially with the lady who is reading it to me in the audio book makes it even more annoying. But it is getting good so far. I lost count of how many times she has relived her day already. I hope this audio book finished in about 3 hours, which is what I believe the total amount of time they show on the contents leads up to. (hide spoiler)]

[Trinity]

Final Thoughts - (view spoiler)[If I was basing this book based on the lady that read it, I might have given the book 2.5 stars, but putting aside that thought I gave the book 4 stars because I thought it was actually really good. I think the way too popularness got to me a little, I think that part brought down the 1 star. It's funny to think that little things you do, can change the whole outcome of something. We saw different outcomes to Sam's life with every different move she made. I am confused on the ending though, did she die or not? I was so upset. I need to know if she died, it seems like it but I have no idea. Does anyone else think she died? But overall, I thought this book was great, it did drag a little but it was still really good.

I feel the same way. Quick question though, how did you hide the spoilers?

[Trinity]

Remove spaces and it should look like this (view spoiler)[Before I Fall (hide spoiler)]

[Katie]

okay thanks!
(view spoiler)[ I really think she died in the last chapter, but I'm just not 100% sure. That is just something we will have to hope we get a chance to ask the author about. I was really hoping that she could save Juliet and herself. That way Kent and her could be together. It did seem to drag at times, but overall I think the book was pretty good. I think it might be that way, just because she takes so much time to describe a certain thing or event. (hide spoiler)]
