I LOVE reading all of the time, but this summer has definitely been the summer of reading. A while ago I read My Name is Memory by Ann Brashares and absolutely loved it. Of course, I am still impatiently waiting for its sequel, but that's another post. Since then my booktwin, Mary and I have been on the hunt for YA books. More recently, it all started with The Hunger Game Series by Suzanne Collins, The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare, then we read Delirium by Lauren Oliver, and Divergent by Veronica Roth. Peeta, Katniss, Jace, Clary, Alex, Len, Four, Tris, and many others became household names. However, it wasn't until we came across Starcrossed by Josie Angelini, it was then that i think we both fell in love with Mr. Lucas Delos. It was nonstop Starcrossed, reading, thinking and in some cases dreaming about it.

Where She Went by Gayle Forman
First of all, how short/long was this book? I started reading it about 5 hours ago on my kindle and with just two breaks, I finished it. Tears and all.
I got teary-eyed a few times and cried twice, again. The first book was written from Mia's point of view and Where She Went was written from Adam's point of view. It takes place a few years after the accident.
I think I enjoyed reading it more from his perspective. Of course, I didn't anticipate that the story would have begun the way it did. I thought Mia and Adam would be figuring each other out in their long distance relationship. I thought that the hardest struggle would be making time see each other since they she would be at Juilliard and he would be touring. I'm glad it did though. I love happy endings, sometimes I need them. But they didn't have their happy ending; I don't think it would made the impact it did.
Reading the book was a little difficult for me, anyone who has been dumped remembers what it feels like.
