Where She Went by Gayle Forman

Where She Went
"Where She Went" takes place three years after "If I Stay" ends and flashes back and forth quite often.  It is told through Adam's point of view and focuses on what he went though after the accident that killed Mia's family and the three years since Mia left for Juilliard and New York and "dumped him."

Adam makes us see that being a rock star is not always so glamorous.  Being in the limelight, having a movie star girlfriend, being recognized everywhere he goes can't erase his feelings for Mia and the hurt that is eating him up.  Adam has a strong voice and it's interesting hearing this love story with his lyrics and thoughts.

I enjoyed this as much as the first book and although not necessary to read "If I Stay" first it is suggested to do so.  Read as an ebook arc courtesy Penguin's Young Readers Group of via Netgalley.
