My review:
Samantha has the good life, the popular click in the group and rules the school. Then one bad night she gets into a bad accident then wakes up reliving the same day over and over again. Sam was like this mean girl type of person and at first you end up disliking her, but as the story progress you can only hope that Sam will learn her lessons and grow as a person. Will she be able to escape her faith or she is doomed to live the worst day ever over and over again. This book has a type of groundhog day movie feel to it. It’s a very slow start to the story by in the end you hope to enjoy it. Soon the movie will be coming out for it March 3rd. I suggest read the book for yourself before the movies. You know how they sometimes ruin books the movies do. Will leave you off with the movies trailer and Happy Reading!
