2 good blogs

Sumiaya’s blog post was one of the memorable posts that I’ve read. It was memorable because it was very detailed and thought through. I liked how she explained her thoughts and elaborated on her point of view on the book. She also gave a summary with it :D

Alyssa’s blog post was also memorable because she picked a very interesting book to write about. She also shared what was her favorite part in the book and explained why she liked it. She also learned some new technics to use in her next writing.

First blog post: Stay or Die

When I read If I Stay by Gayle Forman, I thought it was a touching and thoughtfully written book because this was the first time I’ve read a book where the main character is talking from an unconscious girl’s view (from her hospital bed). Her family got killed in a car crash that killed her mom, dad and sadly her little brother. She was the only one that came out of that crash still breathing. When she was at the hospital (in the beginning) she didn’t know if her family was dead yet, until she heard her grandparents whispering about it. She got visited by so many caring people, her grandparents and boyfriend. She kept thinking if she should stay and try to get her life back or just die with the rest of her family. But in the end it was the boyfriend’s heartfelt decision to visit her at the hospital and “talk” to her instead of going on tour with the band that nudged her closer to staying, but the final push was when he said if she stayed he would give her anything. <3
