Where She Went

It's been three years since the accident.

Three years since Mia walked away from Adam .
......

When Mia went to Julliard three years ago. Adam didn't know that it would be the last time he'd see her. Three years had already gone by, Adam is now a huge rock star. Their band Shooting Star became phenomenal. Their album reach the number one spot on the charts. He has a beautiful model girlfriend and is living his dream. Or is he? For the past years, Adam was left hanging in the air with no reason or explanation why Mia left with one last kiss and never looked back. Why she never contacted him since then. Why she left him and what he did wrong. For years, he had kept his emotions under wrap and he never once again the same. All he wanted was to see her, even if it's just a glimpse but, that would be impossible.

If he could see her, he would need answers to all the questions that lingered in his mind. He would need explanations, if only he could see her. He would or would he? Adam has been burdened by a secret he had kept for so long. Only he knows about it. Or so he thought.

So what happens when their paths cross again in New York City? And this time, it was Mia who approached him first. With only a few hours to spend, what will they do? what will he do?

Will he finally ask the questions that has haunted him for years? 

Will he be able to hear the words he longs to hear?

In just one life-changing night will they be able to laid their past to rest?  Will both of them just move on for good? or Will they be able rekindled their first love and give it another shot?

......

If I Stay tells us Mia's point of view of her out of the body experience.

In this final book of Gayle Forman Where She went. It's now Adam's turn to tell the tale.

If I Stay

For these past few days, I have been too preoccupied mostly with books (like when did it NEVER made me preoccupied?) In my defense, there's just so many good books these days that I, a self confessed bookworm, can't sit still and just ignore it.

Because of these books which by far, some are not yet even sold in the country, I have no other choice but to wait patiently. Lucky for me, having patience happens to be one of my virtues so, I guess it's alright. Or not. Anyways, that's enough dilly-dallying and let me get straight to point. Remember when I said there are so many good books out there? Yes. That one. I, just happened to came across one and it's a really good book I tell you. Considering the fact that it made me cry (or I'm just a cry baby? O.o I don't know which one it is).

The book was written by Gayle Foreman which has the title "If I Stay".

......

When all your choices are gone except one,

What will you do?

Will you take it?

Or

Will you stay?

Mia is a musically gifted 17 year old girl who loves her friends and family so much. When her family takes a drive one morning everything changes. She soon struggles to hang on taking everything that has happened to her. Holding on to a reason she thought exists, but, what would she do when she finds out that the only thing she hoped for is lost and for that only one thing matters to her now. What will she do?

Would she leave her love for music behind?

Would she leave the other people who are waiting for her?

Would she leave the man she loved?

Her choices are long gone. Except for one. And that is all that matters. The question is:

Would she take it?

or Leave it?

Be part of this book that widens your mind about three things:

1. The power of love
