3.5 out of 5 stars
When Mia's family's day trip takes a turn for the worst, it seems as though it is all down hill from that point. Mia is in her senior year of high school and seems to have it all going for her with a great rock star boyfriend, a loving family and an amazing future playing the cello. One day, however, after her family is in a near fatal car crash, Mia will have to make the biggest decision of her life: whether or not she should stay alive. I liked this book because it keeps the reader on the edge the whole time and the author's writing style is detailed but easy to follow. I did find this book to be a bit dull at times, so that is why I am only giving it a 3.5 out of 5 stars.
