^ i have to say, in the beginning i agree with you; it was frustratingly repedative, but once things picked up i really started enjoying it. that said, i never connected with Sam either, she and her friends annoyed me to know end, consistently reminding me of people that i dont like (which i suppose was the point...)
this is the first Lauren Oliver book that i've read though.
You're meeting her on thursday???! AWEsome

Just finished it!
And I have to agree with you guys, I wasnt enjoying this... until the second half of the book, after that it just went too fast!
mmm Im trying to think what I really want to say about this book, its different from our usual reads, plus I really need to chat with you guys about then ending, its embarassing but I really dont get it!:(

I agree with everyone that the first part of the book went by so slow and boring. I kept reading because I wanted to see what little changes would happen.

Nissie- She basically saved Juliet. She sacrificed her life for Juliet's. She figured out that someone needed to die or something.

I enjoyed this book from beginning to end. I just didn't think about relating to the character because I know I couldn't, I just thought about it as reading someone else's story.

We get to read a lot about the victim, it's hard to find books about the bully.

Anyway, yeah I loved the book. I loved how the characters are all flawed.

Finished this book last night and im made there isnt a happy ending. She should have lived but didnt. Im bothered by the end. I guess you cant always have the perfect happy ending. I didnt mind the repetition cause I already knew it was going to be like the movie Ground Hogs day so in a way I was prepared to relive each moment. I was relieved a bit when she started to skip classes and the days story line was mixed up a bit. aha How awkward would it have been if she lived and had to see Mr. Daimler that Monday after kissing him. ahaha.

Im a little broken hearted cause she finally realized she liked Kent alot and she couldnt be with him after that final day.
