Waiting on Wednesday (30) - Where She Went by Gayle Forman
8:00 AMWaiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine spotlighting upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating.
Release Date: April 5, 2011
Summary:
It's been three years since the devastating accident ... three years since Mia walked out of Adam's life forever.
Now living on opposite coasts, Mia is Julliard's rising star and Adam is LA tabloid fodder, thanks to his new rock star status and celebrity girlfriend. When Adam gets stuck in New York by himself, chance brings the couple together again, for one last night. As they explore the city that has become Mia's home, Adam and Mia revisit the past and open their hearts to the future - and each other.
Told from Adam's point of view in the spare, lyrical prose that defined If I Stay, Where She Went explores the devastation of grief, the promise of new hope, and the flame of rekindled romance.
I absolutely cannot wait for Where She Went! I was crying through most of If I Stay but the writing and storyline were both so incredibly good that there's no way I'm waiting around for the paperback again this time. I wouldn't have originally thought there would be a sequel, but I'm glad we get to see more of Mia and Adam because I'm not quite ready to let these two go just yet...
If you still haven't read If I Stay, I highly recommend you get a move on and read it! And if you want, you can read my review for the novel here... it was one of the first reviews I posted on the blog!

ReplyDeleteI heard amazing things about this series but like the first commenter, though I love emotion not sure if I could handle too much emotion but I do want to give them a try sometime.

ReplyDeleteI cried through much of If I Stay as well. I loved it! I am really looking forward to this one as well though sequels sometimes make me nervous. I have in my head what I want to happen and I will be sad if it doesn't :( Ha.
