Before I Fall- Analysis

A quote I chose from the book, Before I Fall that was important to the story and had a meaning was this. "They say that just before you die your whole life flashes before your eyes, but that’s not how it happened for me"(Oliver, 1). This is the very first quote of the prologue. It is interesting because it has hidden meanings, and already gives out a lot of information. What I mean is, it says, when you die. So, she obviously has died. They also say your life flashes, but she then says it didn't happen to her, so that means she's basically telling us how dying feels like. Just the first sentence I get an almost careless, but yet confident vibe from the main character. I feel like she would become a trouble maker, and found out later on in the book, I was correct.
