Oh my god, this book. If I Stay was one of my favourite ever books. It was so sad and beautiful and sometimes just thinking about the events of that book (TEDDY!) will make tears spring to my eyes all this time later. So when I heard that Gayle Forman was writing a sequel, I was at once thrilled and also nervous. I knew I'd love returning to Adam and Mia's story, but I was also really scared that Where She Went wouldn't live up to the huge emotional impact that If I Stay had on me. If you have that same worry, don't. Put that thought out of your mind forever. Where She Went is absolutely captivating and is filled with such heartbreak and sadness but also the same beauty and hope that stole my heart with If I Stay. Once I'd picked up Where She Went, I knew that I wouldn't be capable of putting it down until I'd finished it. Gayle Forman has done it again. In some ways, I sort of love Where She Went more than If I Stay. I just loved coming back to Adam and Mia and exploring their lives and their relationship in more detail. Where She Went takes place three years after Mia's car accident. Adam gave that beautiful, heart-breaking speech and Mia stayed. But they didn't stay together. In fact, they've barely spoken in the three years since. Mia went off to Julliard and Adam's band really takes off and Adam is always in the press with his new rock-star lifestyle. One night in New York, they bump into each other and come to terms with what happened to them, what's happened since and if they have a future together... I love that this book is told from Adam's perspective. He has no idea why Mia broke up with him and never returned his phone calls. He's been holding onto his grief and confusion and channelled some of it into his song lyrics. He should be really happy that his music career has been so successful and with his famous girlfriend, but he isn't. The whole experience has changed him and he's no longer that perfect boyfriend from If I Stay. The tension between Adam and Mia as they spend this one night wandering around the city just crackles off the pages. There's so much left unsaid between them. And as they visit some of Mia's favourite spots in the city, we see flashes of Adam's life in the last three years. How he reacts when Mia dumps him, how his band become so famous, how he meets his celebrity girlfriend. And we get to know slowly the things that Mia has done and is doing at Julliard, who she spends her time with. But as the reader all I wanted to know was WHY, WHY, WHY?! did they break up? And my need to know the answers to solve that mystery is so large and the build-up towards it left me breathless with anticipation. And I wasn't disappointed. Everything from Adam's thoughts and his actions are just so believable. His pain is very real and when Mia opens up and starts explaining the reasons she did the things she did, I was completely behind her as well. In fact I love how strong Mia turns out to be and the lengths she's gone to in order to move on from the accident and not let that one event in her life define her. Such a beautiful book with wonderfully flawed characters in a heartbreaking situation. I can't recommend Where She Went enough. Adam and Mia have stolen a piece of my heart.

Another Harry Potter book gone, and for the second time around, I'm remembering all the reasons that I loved Half-Blood Prince. One of the biggest is that the fog slowly begins to lift as we get to the next-to-last installment of this series. With all the winding twists and turns of following Draco, learning about Voldemort's past, and suspecting Snape, readers are drawn into this book from first to last. I'm certainly included in their number, and the book is definitely the one that helps tie together the strings Rowling's left undone so far. We know the last book in the series will be the "one book to rule them all, one book to find them, one book to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them." Okay, that was a shameless draw from LOTR, but the point is the last book is the one that reveals every secret. Half-Blood Prince, however, is the one book that moves forward the plot, pushes Harry into the spotlight his destiny deserves in a way we aren't expecting, and leaves us craving all the answers to the questions that have built up over six books. It also gives us hints at what's to come and answers some of the questions we've been salivating over. In the end, this is one of the single most plot-driven books in the series, in my opinion. Instead of seeing the growth of Harry, Ron, and Hermione, we see Harry pursuing his headmaster's mission, his own curiosity about Draco, and his hatred of Snape. In so doing, we are rushed through the story as though buoyed on wings that are flying us closer to the book's dramatic climax. I don't think the book could have ended any other way than how it did, and to be honest, it would not end as a series about a young wizard who saved the world had Half-Blood Prince not included the death of one of the most prominent characters in the series. Overall, this book left me pleased by the twists and turns and inevitable conclusion that's been in the works since book 5. And I know that Rowling's writing style has hooked me exceptionally well and kept me turning pages throughout the series. Though written for a younger audience, it's clear that both the writing style and tone age as the characters in the book age and the story becomes progressively darker. It's definitely a plus for an older reader, and I enjoyed every moment of the story as Rowling's characters experienced more strain on their emotional lives than ever before. Not to mention it leaves readers raring for the climactic conclusion to the whole series.
