"If I Stay" Book Review

Okay, so i just got done reading a book called "If I Stay". Can't remember who it's by at the moment. That's probably important when doing a book review. But anyways.

Okay, so, I enjoy reading the reviews on the inside/back/cover of the book by famous people and such. And almost all of them said that it was a super amazing but sad story and the reader would be bawling through the whole book. And, knowing that I'm a super emotional person, I KNEW I was gonna cry, but for some reason I love those kind of books where I'm just lying there sobbing. Yeah, emo, I know. I dunno why. Don't judge me. ._.  So anyways. I'm reading through this book, just WAITING for the moment where I'll burst into tears, but as I'm reading this, I find that I DON'T. And I was super surprised. I mean, I dunno if those people who reviewed the book were super emotional at the time of reading this or something, but I just wasn't crying. Yeah, i felt super sad and stuff, and I was EXPECTING myself to cry, but it wasn't happinen'. I only started to get a little emotional near the end, when I was confused as to what the chick Mia was gonna chose. She's just chillin' out in this state of limbo, not exactly alive but not exactly dead either. And she has to chose: life or death. That's all i'm letting you know in that part. And then, right at the end, I burst into tears. I think it was just me panicking because I couldn't tell if she was alive or dead, and I was worried that she was dead, but i wasn't quite positive, either, so. It was still a spectacular book, and I definitely recommend it. I'd say four stars.
