If I Stay by Gayle Forman

(Summary from Goodreads)

In a single moment, everything changes. Seventeen-year-old Mia has no memory of the accident; she can only recall riding along the snow-wet Oregon road with her family. Then, in a blink, she finds herself watching as her own damaged body is taken from the wreck...

A sophisticated, layered, and heart-achingly beautiful story about the power of family and friends, the choices we all make, and the ultimate choice Mia commands.

8.5/10 I really liked this book. It was captivating, deep, haunting, and full of emotion. But honestly, I can't say that this is a book I loved. I can't put my finger on why though. Anyway, to focus on the positives, the way Forman tackled the point of view during the story was, I thought, very witty. I'm also a sucker for a good use of flashback, and this book satisfied that. Overall, a very emotional story that was a quick read.
