Waiting on Wednesday (22)

I Was Here

Author: Gayle Forman

Viking Juvenile

Expected: January 27th, 2015

Description from GoodReads:

   Cody and Meg were inseparable.

   Two peas in a pod.

   Until . . . they weren’t anymore.

   When her best friend Meg drinks a bottle of industrial-strength cleaner alone in a motel room, Cody is understandably shocked and devastated. She and Meg shared everything—so how was there no warning? But when Cody travels to Meg’s college town to pack up the belongings left behind, she discovers that there’s a lot that Meg never told her. About her old roommates, the sort of people Cody never would have met in her dead-end small town in Washington. About Ben McAllister, the boy with a guitar and a sneer, who broke Meg’s heart. And about an encrypted computer file that Cody can’t open—until she does, and suddenly everything Cody thought she knew about her best friend’s death gets thrown into question.

Why I Want It:

   I really enjoyed Gayle's If I Stay, and I've heard so many more great things about the rest of her books. But so far I've heard that I Was Here is her prized jewel. So obviously after hearing that about I Was Here I just had to jump onto the band wagon.

Why You Should Want It:

   Gayle has beautiful written and touches you on a inner level with her stories. If you'd like a unique and exhilarating experience, Gayle's books are definitely for you.
