If I Stay

by Gayle Forman

Mia is a daughter, a sister, a girlfriend, a cellist bound for Julliard, until a terrible car accident changes everything. Her body is comatose, lying in a bed in the ICU, but her spirit is there, watching. Listening. What if most of the people you love in life are gone? What if you'll never be the same? Would you want to leave? Or would you stay?

This is a high school title, so you'll have to go to the bookstore or public library to get it, but it's worth the trip. A total tearjerker, in the best kind of way--there's not a single cheesy moment. You'll want to curl up in a ball and cry for Mia, but you'll also feel uplifted and hopeful by the end.
