Where She Went by Gayle Forman

Here's a quick summary from Ms. Forman's website:  It’s been three years since Adam’s love saved Mia after the accident that annihilated life as she knew it . . . and three years since Mia walked out of Adam’s life forever.
Now living on opposite coasts, Mia is Julliard’s rising star and Adam is LA tabloid fodder, thanks to his new rock star status and celebrity girlfriend. When Adam gets stuck in New York by himself, chance brings the couple together again, for one last night. As they explore the city that has become Mia’s home, Adam and Mia revisit the past and open their hearts to the future—and each other.
Told from Adam’s point of view in the spare, powerful prose that defined If I Stay, Where She Went explores the devastation of grief, the promise of new hope, and the flame of rekindled romance.

My Take

Okay, the cover...it's lovely.  Not totally how I pictured Mia but I do love the cover nonetheless.  I have been waiting what feels like forever to find out what happens to Adam and Mia.  I really loved this book.  I really liked If I Stay and I know that I enjoyed Where She Went just as much.  It was tough to see these two characters struggling to know what they wanted and trying to determine if that might involve each other.  At times it was almost frustrating.  I won't give away the ending but wasn't disappointed by this book at all.  I'm giving this one 4 1/2 kisses!
