“If I Stay” By Gayle Forman Review

In the blink of an eye everything changes. Seventeen ­year-old Mia has no memory of the accident; she can only recall what happened afterwards, watching her own damaged body being taken from the wreck. Little by little she struggles to put together the pieces- to figure out what she has lost, what she has left, and the very difficult choice she must make. Heartwrenchingly beautiful, this will change the way you look at life, love, and family. Now a major motion picture starring Chloe Grace Moretz, Mia’s story will stay with you for a long, long time.

I gotta say that I’ve heard a lot of good about this book, which got me interested in reading this book. But after reading it I gotta say that this book is very very overhyped and not as good as people on the internet say it is. 

The plot in this book is very ridiculous because it is all over the place, if a vampire showed up in this book I wouldn’t have gotten surprised because its very ridiculous.

There is a point during this book where the main character Mia, is in a hospital bed very close to dying and all she thinks about is how cute her boyfriend is. If you ask me it is very unbelievable.

I need to admit that I have had DNF-ed this book and I didn’t read the entire book because this book was pure torture for me and I just couldn’t read the entire book since it was giving me a huge reading slump.

My best adept to describe this book is to say that it was probably the most boring book I’ve read in 2024. Wish says a lot looking at the fact that ive read over 200 books in 2024.

The writing style in this book is very very bad. Because it feels like it was written by a junior high girly girl. Which for me personally it doesn’t work. Because the writing style is way to cheesy and cringe.

The relationship in this book was almost not existing. Because the only thing which made the relationship in this book was the girl and boy calling each other “boyfriend” and “girlfriend” but other than that the relationship aspect of this book didn’t exist.

I Give This Book 1 / 5
