If I Stay

8/18/14

So, now I understand why I didn't finish the book in the first place. To me it feels like it is dragging on and on and on. Also you really have to pay attention because at one moment the main character is in the present, watching over what was going on in the after affects of the car accident she was in. Then the next moment you are experiencing a flash back about how she started to be a cello player and how she started dating her boyfriend. Its kind of like her life flashing before her eyes and she has an out-of-body experience. Its interesting to read something like that, but I don't like how it just drags on and on and on. I'll try to finish it, but I'm not making any promises. I'm actually at the point where I stopped reading the book the first time I picked it up. Maybe I'll get farther before I return the book. I may not like the book, but someone must have to want to make a movie out of it. It makes me wonder if the movie is better then the book. I'll never know until I finish the book and read the movie. So until next time.....

 Yes, I'm still reading the book. I've actually made it a third of the way through the book. And, it is still dragging on and on and on. I feel like I'm telling it to get a move on already. I'm pretty sure the movie is going to be so much better in my eyes. Anyways, I would of been farther in the book but apparently it is a bad idea to read when you have a really bad headache. You end up getting sick to your stomach because the pain is so bad. At least I'm all better now and trying to read this teeth pulling book. Sigh. I just want to finish this book and read something else. There seems to be no end to this book. I'm trying. Like really really trying. Also I noticed that by looking at the cover that I have and after reading what the girl looks like in the book, they are two different girls. Hollywood really needs to stick to what the authors write about. Especially their characters. I also have a feeling that the movie is going to be nothing like the book. That's Hollywood for you. So I'm going to head out. My brother has orientation today and I have to convince my baby sister that selling me for dates is wrong. So until next time.....

 After finding the actual edition of the book that I have, I have come to realize that I'm farther than I thought. Yep. I am actually two thirds through the book. Now I don't feel like the book is taking forever. Also I have to admit that the boyfriend breaking down made me cry. I'm a sucker for those kinds of things. Anyways, I kind of figure what happens in the end. There is a second book, so obviously she choose to live. Right? Of course, it could also be in her boyfriend's eyes. Who knows. But, I'm thinking she wakes up from her coma. I also want to know what happened to her brother, Teddy. No one knows what happened, only what she thinks happened. It would be sad if he died too. I guess I have to keep reading to find out. Yay! Not really. So I'm going to try to wrap up the book tomorrow. I still don't care for it, but I'm willing to go watch the movie and compare differences. But, the tear jerking moment might have boost up my rating for the book. So instead of two stars, I might give it three stars. So until next time......

 I did it again. I peeked. Honestly, I at least waited until I was nearly finished with the book. Anyways, that is besides the point. I finally finished the book. Yay! So, you do find out what happens to Teddy. Poor baby boy didn't get a chance. Also there is a few parts that made me love the book, others that made me cry. But I still didn't like it. I was tempted to give it a four honestly. But I still gave it a three. You can boo me all you want. Haters. Anyways, now that I finished the book and found out that love wins all battles, I want to read the second book just for the hell of it. And, maybe see the movie when it comes out. Who knows? The books ending is pretty predictable, but you can't help but read to find out how it happens. I had a feeling the boyfriend would save the day and bring her back, but like I said, you can't help but read and see how he does it. So I'm off to continue reading Crave since its the only book I have now. I had to return Styxx. Sad face. There was no way I was going to get to reading that book, but I'll request that book after I play catch up for the signing I'm dying to go to in September. I'm not missing a chance to meet Jamie McGuire. Hello...She wrote Beautiful Disaster, my favorite book ever. Walking Disaster and Beautiful Oblivion are good too, but not as great as Beautiful Disaster. That book makes me cry every time. I can't help it. Anyways, I'm going to grab something to eat, harass my mother, and grab Crave from my backpack. So until next time.....
