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. Heart-wrenchingly beautiful, Mia's story will stay with you for a long, long time
My Views and opinions
This book as really touched me in a way that a book as ever touched me before. This is a story about Mia, she has had an accident which leads her to be in a state of coma in the hospital. While she is in this state she is evaluating her life to see whether she should stay in her body and continue her life, or if she should just let her sprit go. We look into Mia’s past and see her life before the accident and how different her life outcome had become after the horrible accident. While I started reading this book it never once made me once put the book down as a reason of boredom but instead I had to put the book down couple of times just to take in my emotions and stop basically to stop my tears flowing.
Mia lived a happy and fulfilling life for a girl of her age. She has a great relationship with her family and also a loving relationship with her boyfriend she couldn’t have had asked for more. Throughout the book the story is told from Mia’s perspective while she is having an out-of body experience and she lets us on a journey into her past and ultimately her dictions for the future.
This book exposed me to my deep inner emotions and had no trouble letting me have a tearful moment. I cannot recommend this book enough and hope that if you haven’t read this book yet then to read this book and go through an emotional reading experience that you would never forget.
My Rating
5/5 stars
