There are no ruthless men with guns, no diabolical lawyers, no serial murderers.


But something told me this book was "the one." And sometimes you just can't let a special book go.Ī novel about a teenage musician is a far departure from the traditional model of a thriller. My first encounter with Gayle Forman's If I Stay began like most of my romances - for purely physical reasons. Some I bought for their covers, some for the feel of the paper, and some I had a genuine interest in - until a newer, glossier novel caught my eye. Were I to write my confessions, I would have to admit to buying books for purely aesthetic reasons.
