Just listen, Adam says with a voice that sounds like shrapnel.
I open my eyes wide now.
I sit up as much as I can.
And I listen.
Stay, he says.
Choices. Seventeen-year-old Mia is faced with some tough ones: Stay true to her first love—music—even if it means losing her boyfriend and leaving her family and friends behind?
Then one February morning Mia goes for a drive with her family, and in an instant, everything changes. Suddenly, all the choices are gone, except one. And it's the only one that matters.
If I Stay is a heart achingly beautiful book about the power of love, the true meaning of family, and the choices we all make.

I haven't read anything by this author! I don't think her books are for me, to be honest. I love that you enjoyed this one, Katiria! I hope you like more of her books in the future. :)
