Gayle Forman
.....
Do you ever get really emotionally invested in books? I know that I have. I can truly say that If I stay is an emotional roller coaster. I was brought to tears with this beautiful written novel. This story will have you questioning everything and what would you do if you were ever in this situation.
The storyline of If I Stay is this, Mia Hall and her family go for a drive one day and then there is a terrible car accident. The actual back story is told through Mia while she is having an outer body experience while being in a coma and also through the use of flashbacks. Through this we learn about Mia and the type of person she is.You learn about her wonderful life she had with her family which is not a common theme in young- adult titles. It was a breath of fresh air to see a teenager who got along so well with her family. Adam, Mia's loving punk-rocker boyfriend, stole my heart in this novel and broke it into a million and a half pieces before he put it all back together again.
With each turn of the page you become more and more invested in this novel. Gayle Forman will have you on the edge of your toes with her beautiful written novel. This story is so powerful that it will haunt for weeks of the question if I were in Mia’s situation “would I stay, or would I go.” I would recommend this book to everyone. Five Pearls.
