Gayle Forman did a good job on writing this book. She knows how to make the reader feel like they are really Mia, and it will really make you have goosebumps. Knowing that you're on the stage between life and death, and you are the one who's gonna choose whether you will still live or die. 
 Honestly, this book made my eyes teared up. 'Cos in a way, some of us can really relate to the story. Sometimes, we ask ourselves whether we still want to live or just leave because of those problems that we're facing, just like Mia in the story. Of course, we'll always have those people who'd cheer us up, make me feel like everything is okay and that they'd always support us. And well, it just really makes things complicated, it makes things much harder for us to choose. 
 After reading If I Stay, I can't wait to get my hands on Where She Went. :>
