People sometimes ask me which of my characters I am most like. The answer is Adam in the early bits of #WhereSheWent when he is so lost and confused about Mia.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I felt so deeply for Adam Wilde while writing the sequel that I got mad at Mia. I was like, "How could she do that to him?!" As if I wasn't the one who made her do that to him!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ (PC: @hazelstaybookish) #whereshewent #ifistay #miahall #adamwilde #miaandadam

If I had to explain what WHERE SHE WENT is about I would say (spoilers to follow) that it is about the price of unconditional love. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In IF I STAY, Adam tells Mia that he would do anything—including let her go—if she stays. In the sequel, we see the consequences of that vow.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In romantic stories, love is often depicted as magical. And it is. But over the long run, it is hard work. And sometimes it requires putting somebody else’s needs over your own. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Like Adam does for Mia. He lets himself be the person Mia hates. He might not understand it. He might be devastated by it. But he does it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because he loves her. Unconditionally.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ -⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #whereshewent #miaandadam #ifistaymovie #yalit #youngadultlit #youngadult #quotesofinstagram #bookquotes #bookstagram #booksofinstagram
