In my opinion this was a satisfying book. It had me on the edge of my seat in reading class. I like this book because it deals with a life or death situation. It is also romantic and shows a lot of love to all the characters in the book. When I read the first page I knew this was going to be a good book. I think I enjoyed …show more content…

My favorite one is “Sometimes you make choices in life and sometimes choices make you.” Which in my opinion is true, because you are who you are and if you make a choice of doing something good and right, that 's just showing the goodness of your character, of you. Another quote that lines up with the theme of this book is “People believe what they want to believe.” Like Mia did, I want spoil the book if you decide to read it.

I believe that this novel is fantastic. I also believe that if you read this book that you will enjoy it. This book isn’t just about romance it’s about life, this book is so intense I felt that I was in that book living in the characters shoes. You can feel the pain, you can feel the joy. This book might make you cry or it might just make you laugh. Whatever happens, I believe you will enjoy it.

In conclusion I recommend this outrageous piece of literature you call “If I Stay”. I recommend it to the romantic kind of type, to the what 's going to happen next kind of type, but especially to the I need a book to read kind of type. I didn’t feel like reading that day in my reading class so I just grabbed a random book and nearly fell in love with it. This book may change things in your life or it may just change at the very end. “If I Stay” is just the beginning of this

The story and the characters really stood out to me. They really expressed themselves and the setting in the story was very cool to learn about. I enjoyed the pictures in the book because they guide the reader into the setting and the time period in the book. I recommend this book to people who are interested in learning about World War II and people who are interested in biographies and survival stories. One of my favorite quotes from the book was “A lifetime of glory is worth a moment of pain.”

It is a great love story only enhanced by the outlandish characters and constant mockery. The pacing of the novel is slow at first until half way through the first volume. The plot then accelerates and by the third volume it is hard to put down. Characters such as Mr. Collins, Mrs. Bennet, and Lady De Bourgh were all hysterical caricatures meant that livened up the novel during times when the plot was thin. The novel would not have been as cohesive or interesting without characters to add comic relief.
