I had been hearing a lot about this book, so when I finally got my hands on it, I was excited to find out that it really was worth all the hype. This book is about a girl named Mia who, along with her family, are involved in a major car crash. The crash happens at the beginning of the book and it sends Mia into a serious coma. The idea of the story is that Mia must decide if she wants to give up and die, or fight for her life and stay living. This choice is presented through a series of flashbacks of Mia's life.
The book is very 'fast paced and easy to finish. I quickly became very involved in Mia's life and the choice she had to make. The book has very sad moments though, so you might want a box of tissues!
I give this book a 9 out of 10!!! I highly recommend it!
This book has been optioned to become a major motion picture directed by Twilight's Catherine Hardwicke. Check out more info here.
