“If I Stay” is a book written by Gayle Forman. The book, often mentioned in the book community, was all over the hype last year when its movie adaptation hit the theaters.

Mia and her family had a terrible car accident, her parents were dead almost instantly, and she didn´t know what happened to her little brother. She was taken to hospital and put on the ICU. Her parents, family and friends visit her and she sees everything from outside of her body. Now she has to decide if she stays or leave to the uncertain place her parents leave.

“If I Stay” was a phenomenal book. If you read the plot it might seem like a supernatural ghost story but it isn’t, I will even consider it realistic fiction, since it felt more like what a person about to die will feel if that person would be able to see what the people she loves is going though. I think it was a heartbreaking book, a page turner that I read from cover to cover. In my opinion, it’s one of those books that make you think about your life, the people that surround you, and the people you love. “If I Stay” made me remember moments of my life I thought I didn’t, and it made me feel grateful for what I have.

In conclusion, I think “If I Stay” it’s a fantastic book that puts you into perspective.

Half Year Wrap Up and July TBR

Hello everyone, as I said on my update and favorites post I’m sorry I’ve been absent lately. Because of that, I’m not going to do a monthly wrap up, but a middle of the year wrap up. I can’t believe we have already hit the middle of the year, but here we are and I’m four books behind in my goodreads challenge, which is more or less like a month. It isn’t much considering how little time I have had to read, as well as many other things, and considering there were two months in which I didn’t finished one book. We start with January, the best month reading wise I’ve had in years, I completed a total of 8 books in addition to a novella and a graphic novel. Not only that, I also highly enjoyed most books I read during that month “Captivated by You” by Sylvia Day. The last book published in the Crossfire series, really liked it, and I can’t wait for the next book which I think might be the last. (4/5) “Conociendo a Raul” by Blue Jeans. The novella I read, prequel to “El Club de

This is a spin-off series of her previous work “Vampire Academy”. This time the plot centers around Sydney, which we met on the previous series as an alchemist, an “agency” that works on making the vampire world “invisible” to the human kind, and that way they protect humans from evil, vampires. The alchemists tolerate Moroi and Damphir, however they do not engage with them more than what is strictly necessary, they are still evil. Nonetheless, they have a worse evil as common enemy Strigoi.

Strife - Cate Tiernan

Tittle: Strife Author: Cate Tiernan Genre: Fiction, YA, Romance, fantasy, witches, magik, coming of age. Pages: 188 Publisher: Puffin Format: Digital (Kindle) Time to read it: 5 days Language: English Rating: 4/5 “Strife is the ninth book in the “Wicca/Sweep” series, a series that follows Morgan as she finds out about the existence of magik and her relationship with it. She discovers a new part of her life that threatens with run over everything else. Weird things start happening and the only one that can be blame is Morgan who is uninitiated, since now Ciaran is on the run, and Selene and Cal dead. Hunter brings someone to help her out but her solution to things kinds of goes to extreme. Also, Alisa leaves the coven, since all the things happening scared her off. “Strife” was a good book in the series but it got me lost a little bit. They introduced Alisa’s point of view which kinds of puts me off a little bit and all in all it was a little tedious
