Review of 'If I Stay' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
Having watched the movie trailer I was really exited about the book and had to buy it asap in order to read it before the movie hits the screen. Plus the book cover is just amazing and I'm a sucker for movie covers.
I loved the trailer and therefore expected a wonderful book that would make me cry. Unfortunately I felt almost nothing at all and wasn't even close to crying.
The plot was okay and the basic concept was really nice though I expected more depth. Foreman's writing style was fluent and made the book a quick read.
To sum it up, it's an okay book but nothing I would recommend reading. Nevertheless I will probably stil watch the movie because I think that they could make a really emotional film out of the book.
