If I Stay

I read the book called If I Stay by Gayle Forman for my second independent reading book this year. If I Stay is a really good book that I liked alot.
The book is about a young girl, Mia, who is a senior in a high school in Oregon. She has two parents and an 8 year old brother who love her a lot, and a very caring boyfriend who also loves her a lot. Her life is full of music because she plays the cello and she applied to be in the school of Julliard. But one normal day in February, they got a snow day but the snow was already melting from the ground and the roads. So, her and her family had decided to visit her parents' friends and Mia's grandparents for the day. When they were on there way to their friends' house, they got in a very bad car accident with a tractor-trailer. Both of her parents and her little brother had died from it, but she just got hurt very badly. She had a collapsed lungs, a ruptured spleen, internal bleeding, contusions on her brain, broken ribs, and abrasions on her legs. Nobody had thought that she would have made it, but everyone also knew how strong she was and she had proved them all wrong and ended up get surgery and then became fine. I really liked this book alot, and I deffinitley recommend this book to other people, too.
