If I Stay

A long road trip over Labor Day weekend, but still I procrastinated picking up a book. When I finally stopped daydreaming and picked up If I Stay, I was hooked immediately. A normal family outing, taking a road trip (nothing like reading a book about a drive gone wrong while you are on the highway with a bunch of crazy drivers!) when Mia loses her mother, father and little brother in a car accident that leaves her in a coma. Now she knows that she is in control and she is the one who must decide whether she should live or die. Short and bittersweet, this is a read for anyone, be you a teen or an adult, with thought-provoking issues. What would you choose?
