  • Summary & Analysis | Where She Went

    Book*Sense

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Aug. 23, 2014)
    Notice: This is not the actual book Where She Went by Gayle Forman. Do not buy this Summary & Analysis if you are looking for a full copy. This is a Summary & Analysis Where She Went by Gayle Forman. It had been three years since Mia Hall dumped her high school sweetheart Adam Wilde, and he still had no idea why. Mia was the lone survivor in a car crash that killed both of her parents and her younger brother. She had to get cosmetic surgery and leg surgery. Although she survived, as soon as she was conscious, she made the decision to leave Oregon. She was tired of the sympathetic looks after five months of getting an overload of it while she healed from surgery. Her luck at being accepted to Julliard came just in time. Where She Went is a sequel to Gayle Forman's "If I Stay" and though can be read independently, the problem is, it is so focused on Adam and Mia's troubled romance that character development is lacking for almost all of the characters. This might make the If I Stay a worthy read. After a troubling interview with a reporter who looked into Adam's past, the rock star was forced to make some tough decisions. Should he finally deal with his relationship issues with Mia, stick to groupies or cement his newer relationship with actress Bryn? This Analysis helps to decipher every aspect increasing your understanding of the book more than ever. Before leaving town one night for a huge concert, he made the impulsive decision to see Mia perform live. Three years later, he finally dealt with the emotions he'd had bottled up in his music and his dating life. Temperamental and confused, he knew his decisions would affect the state of the band, his celebrity life and his music. But is his happiness more important than his career? This Analysis of Where She Went fills the gap, making you understand more while enhancing your reading experience.
