How would it feel if something tragic happened to you and your family, and from there your life was completely different?  ‘If IStay “ is an outstanding book, it will give you a glimpse of what it feels to lose your family. This book was written by Gayle Forman, she has written many other books like “ Where She Went “ and “ One More Year “. The theme of “ If I Stay” is love will last through anything, no matter what the circumstances are. Even though there were chances that Mia would not make it, yet her boyfriend waited and hoped that she would wake up.

“ If I stay ” is about a girl named Mia that is very talented in playing the cellist, she has everything she could ever want, a loving family, an amazing boyfriend and her best friend. She wants to get into Juilliard, but she has to decide whether to pursue her musical dreams at Juilliard or follow her heart to be with the love of her life. But then suddenly everything changes her family gets into a car crash and they are rushed to the hospital but Mia has to make a really big decision because she is caught between death and life.

I really liked this book, because it really grabbed my attention because Mia is caught between death and life, she has to choose between staying with the love of her life or slip away and die.  If you want to find out more on what happens to Mia I recommend you reading this book especially if you're into romantic and dramatic books. I really think you should take some time and read this remarkable book not only because it’s interesting but this is a very powerful story of love and loss and trying to make the right decision when your life is literally in your hands.
