Miriam Castanon | 46 comments "Nun-uh. She's running the show. Maybe she's just bidding her time. So you talk to her. You tell her to take all the time she needs, but to come back. You're waiting for her." (PG. 82). If I Stay by Gayle Forman is an amazing book that tells the story of Mia, a young Oregon girl who's family just died in a car accident and gets put in a comma because of the crash. Now her hardest choice will be to either stay and live with her best friend, boyfriend and music, but without her family, or to die and reunite with them. "An achingly beautiful story," said NPR's Roundtable and it is true. This book, I would recommend to people in middle school and above. Other books by this author are Where She Went, the sequel to If I Stay, Just One Day, Just One Year, and Just One Night among many others.
