*SPOILERS*

Finally finished If I Stay. The book's ending was very predictable, but it was at least a happy ending. Overall, I thought the book was okay, some parts were absolutely amazing, while other were terrible. But the whole concept of the book was unique, I just wish it was better crafted. One of the problems seemed to be Mia. She went through absolutely no change and stayed the same throughout the book. I really liked how the book was written when Mia was in present time and then had flashbacks, but I think the author overused the technique. Also, I thought the idea of Adam and Mia from 2 completely backgrounds is a very common idea. For example, this idea is used in Cinderella, The Longest Ride, The Best of Me, and many more. I thought overall, this book had some good ideas, they just weren't well executed.

  1. This sounded like a good book at first from your other posts, but I am not sure if I'd want to read a book with a very predictable ending now.
