If no one meant for it to happen, should someone be guilty? Analise: She knows the roads and feels secure riding her bike. Laurie: When asked out by Quin, Laurie is happy. Then his car hits something. Later, Laurie realizes there is a way to get Quin to date her. Quin: Because Quin is athletically gifted, his father expects him to get a scholarship. Nothing is to get in his way of college, athletics, money, and success. When he realizes what has happened, he decides he must not let it ruin his future. Jeremy: It's been the perfect relationship with Analise. Little does Jeremy realize that the beautiful wood he carves will be used for something for Analise. As the lives of people who never wanted to hurt others intersect, harsh realities of choices that cannot be changed are explored.
This book was a random pickup while I was at a discount book
store. I had no expectations going into it. I picked it up for $2 and it looked
somewhat interesting.
The good news: it was only $2. The bad news, for the author
& publisher I guess, that is all that I would ever spend on this book.
Let me say this – It was not a bad book. I didn’t hate it.
BUT.
It was just very typical. It was a very average young adult
novel that has been done multiple times. It was basically a lesser version of
If I Stay with a few tweaks to the story line.
The random high school popularity storyline annoyed me and
kind of made me want to throw my book at the wall. SPOILER ALERT: withholding
the truth about the accident so this girl could get a boyfriend that she didn’t
even like was so dumb. Pro-tip: don’t do that.
If you find this book discounted somewhere and have nothing
else to read, you may not hate it. Otherwise, don’t even bother. Read If I Stay
instead.
