If I Stay

I read "If I Stay" by Gayle Forman. The genre of this book is realistic fiction, and chances are the event that takes place can really happen. I chose this book because i love reading realistic fiction and it gave you a point of view that really no one knows or could tell you everyday.

In "If I Stay", Mia has the day off from school. Her paretns decide they want to go out as a family and have fun. On their way there Mia's families car is hit by a semi-truck and her mother and father are dead. She feels perfectly fine untill she sees herslef laying in the ground. Now she is facing the decision of staying on Earth or moving on to afterlife.
Two things I like about this book are that you can hear Mia's story of before the story and a little bit more into her personal life, like meeting her best friend or her boyfriend.
Also I liked how detailed the stories were, but not to detailed.
I didnt like that some parts were just random out of no where stories from her past. But over al it was a good book. I would recommend this book to someone that likes fantasy books or something tht is really imaginative. If you liked Twilight this book may be a good read to you.
