I was scared! If I Stay crushed my heart and had me ugly crying for the majority of the book. I wasn't sure if I was ever going to be emotionally read for Where She Went. Then I got it from the library so I sort of had to read it before I returned it. :) Where She Went takes place 3 years after If I Stay (3!!!). When I initially saw the synopsis, I was just thinking "what the crap?!" Anyway, Mia has been pursuing her music at Juilliard and Adam's band has taken off and reached rock star status. This story is told in Adam's POV and you see his turmoil during these years without Mia. God, it broke my heart. By a twist of fate, Adam and Mia meet in New York after all that time and explore the city together before they each have to leave the next day. I enjoyed seeing how they interacted but they kept dancing around the big elephant in the room -- like, hey Mia, why did you go and break my effing heart? I think I was mad at Mia for a large part of this book and it detracted from how I felt about the story. Of course the book was emotional, especially the flashbacks and seeing what Adam went through. However, while emotional and while I teared up in a few parts, it wasn't as soul crushing as If I Stay. Adam Wilde. Oh Adam. My heart ached and I just wanted to hold him for most of the book. I loved that it was in his POV. Was there ever such a perfect boy? One of my favorite aspects of this book was the music and each chapter opened with a snippet of lyrics from one of his songs. It added a lot to the story since the majority of his music is about what he's feeling. It made me wish Adam was REAL so I could go and buy his album because I want to listen to it!! I really enjoyed this emotional addition to Adam and Mia's story but I think I liked If I Stay more. Maybe If I Stay touched me more or maybe I was just upset at Mia for too long. However, all that to say, Where She Went was still amazing. So I thought we were all set when the last book ended, but of course I had to read the sequel when we found one. Once again I was scratching my head at Mia's decisions. She left her boyfriend and he imploded. This one I think might have been from his perspective. She has to decide that she wants him back even after he'd convinced her to stay, which again feels obvious to me, but I'm not Mia.
Os dilemas de Mia e Adam são exatamente os mesmos que provavelmente aconteceram várias vezes nas vidas de muitas pessoas que você e eu conhecemos e jamais chegamos a ficar sabendo. Constatar esse fato, saber disso com tanta certeza, transforma uma história de perda, dor e decisões em um verdadeiro horror existencial. Como se pode resolver o que é absolutamente normal? Como se pode encontrar abrigo do que já está resolvido? As I read WHERE SHE WENT I felt a weight settle in my chest. Adam's pain and loss was so palpable that certain passages left me without the ability to breath. I was so overcome with emotion that I was left bereft of tears. I understood Adam's anger, sympathized with Mia's decisions and was a willing captive to their journey. I truly enjoyed the music lyrics that introduced certain chapters it is one of my favorite bits that add to the magic of this book. Gayle Forman is an amazing talent and she has returned with a story that is filled with love, anger, heartbreak and hope. In the same beautiful lyrical style as before while returning us to a couple that we can never forget. Pertenece a las seriesIf I Stay (2) PremiosListas de sobresalientes
Adam, now a rising rock star, and Mia, a successful cellist, reunite in New York and reconnect after the horrific events that tore them apart when Mia almost died in a car accident three years earlier.
Han pasado tres años desde que Mía, tras el trágico accidente, dejó su ciudad natal en la Costa Oeste para iniciar su nueva vida en Juilliard, el prestigioso conservatorio de Nueva York. Y también tres años desde que abandonó a Adam sin darle explicaciones. La idea de perder a Mía supuso para Adam un auténtico tormento, que cristalizó en un puñado de desgarradas canciones que los catapultaron a él y su banda, los Shooting Star, a la fama. Ahora, convertido en una estrella de rock, con una novia famosa y acosado continuamente por fans y periodistas, Adam vive sumido en un estado de permanente hastío y confusión. Hasta que una noche, en Nueva York, su camino vuelve a cruzarse con el de Mía, convertida ya en la excepcional chelista que prometía ser. El inesperado encuentro se prolongará hasta el amanecer y les brindará la ocasión de abordar lo que ocurrió realmente en el pasado y lo que el futuro podría depararles. Narrada desde el punto de vista de Adam, Lo que fue de ella retoma los personajes de Si decido quedarme, el bestseller internacional de Gayle Forman que describe con asombroso realismo el turbulento horizonte emocional de una adolescente que logra recuperarse de una situación límite. La nueva novela, cuyo éxito ha superado al de la anterior, confirma el talento de esta autora para escribir sobre los temas más delicados con exquisita sensibilidad y sencillez.
