i dont really have any emotions or thoughts for this book besides that it was just sort of… mid. so was if i stay if im being completely honest, but at least if i stay had a more interesting and compelling story. with the way if i stay ended, it did feel like it needed a sequel, however, this didnt really accomplish what i wanted out of the sequel. i actually loved how we got more insight into adams perspective in this book, but the fact that there were no pov switches and we didnt get even a tiny glimpse into mias thoughts and perspectives left this book with a pretty noticeable hole, where the story still doesnt feel complete. it still feels like were missing a very crucial part of the story. if i stay was completely focused on mia, and so to have the sequel have a very noticeable lack of the inner workings of mias mind and her emotions and feelings throughout is a major flaw for me. also, for some unexplainable reason i found mia extremely insufferable throughout this entire sequel.
