"This is a haunting and heartbreaking novel reminiscent of The Lovely Bones, which moves between Mia's recollections and the present with ease. Impossible to put down." Sue Steel, The Bookseller
"One reviewer compares it to The Lovely Bones and it's a novel to make you appreciate everything you have and what it would be like to lose it all." The Bookseller Teen Category Preview.
"A thought-provoking and surprisingly romantic novel, If I Stay has taught me the lightening speed and intensity with which a tragedy can occur and to recongnise the things that make life worth saving for." Four Half Star Review, Good Reading.
"My favourite book of the year so far by a mile." Sarah Webb, Irish Independent.
"Intensely moving, the novel will force readers to take stock of their lives and the people and things that make them worth living." US Publishers Weekly.
"Laced with insight, good humour, and wonder." Booklist US.
"If I Stay is one of those great rate books with a deeply authentic voice that can speak for and move a generation. Not since Twilight have we seen as emotionally moving a book for a youth audience with this kind of crossover appeal. We are thrilled to be working on this property and hope to bring it very quickly to the screen. Erik Feig, Summit's President of Production.
