Love the cover of the book. Must check out this book before they produce a movie.

Blodeuedd - I enjoy a good emotional read every once in a while. I guess I like a good cry.

Vampires and Tofu - I'm a crier too. I think I was expecting an overwhelming sense of emotion from reading this one. And while I did cry, it didn't effect me as much as I thought it would. I still enjoyed reading it; I just wasn't as emotionally attached as I was when I read Thirteen Reasons Why.

Kelli - I think it really does help going in with no expectations. It's like starting out with a clean slate. But I was so excited to read this one.

I was going to watch Twilight last night but I couldn't find my DVD!! So I ended up watching The Notebook and cried like a baby.

So glad you liked this one! I went into it with z...

So glad you liked this one! I went into it with zero expectations, which I think always helps. I am looking forward to the movie too. As soon as I read "Summit" in that sentence, I heard the Twilight music and saw Edward's face. Now I'm gonna have to go watch Twilight---again. :)

I was surprised by my lack of an emotional response to this one too. And let me tell you, I am a crier. But for some reason or other this one just didn't do it for me.

Lisa - Thirteen Reasons Why moved me the most. It was a brutally honest and poignant read. I wish we could see more from Mr. Asher soon.

I feel like I could have written this post! I bought this book and had it sit on my shelf for a while, too. I first read Before I Fall and 13 Reasons Why, then finally pulled out If I Stay. I found myself a little bored throughout, but did cry in the end.
