one of the best books i've ever read. also, i love winnie the pooh.

I just finished reading one of the best books I've ever read, "If I Stay" by Gayle Forman. 320 pages, done, in three days. I gobbled it up, man. Needless to say, it will now be going on my sweet beats&good reads page...but deciding where it will land on the list is difficult. Also, I think this would make wonderful book club material. :) *wink wink*

"If I Stay" tells the story of 17 year old Mia, after enduring a terrible car accident. Her body is in a coma throughout the entire book, but Mia must make the decision whether she'll come back to the living or slip away into death. My goodness. Gayle's writing took my breath away. Specific images from the book keep flashing through my brain. Her writing will forever have an effect on me.

...Now I just need to get my hands on the sequel, "Where She Went," and we can call it good. :) For now, I am going to sleep off how awful I feel. I've missed two classes this week because I've felt like a train barreled into me. Bah. I hope this passes quickly! Blergh.

Whenever I'm sick, this song plays in my head. You're welcome.
