I am still reading the book if I Stay, and i am really enjoying it. What is happening in my book is that Mia's boyfriend has finally come to the hospital. She has been worried about how he was going to be notified that she is in the hospital. Adam was told by her best friend, Kim. Kim and Adam's relationship wasn't really left off the way that Mia wanted it to be. Mia thought that since She was dating Adam and Kim was her best friend that Adam and Kim should be best friends too. But they weren't really, they didn't hate each other but they just weren't as close as Mia wanted them to be. In the hospital they wouldn't let Adam into the ICU to visit Mia and this brought Kim and Adam closer because Kim comforted him and tried to figure out a way to get him to see Mia.
The best thing about my book right now is the love relationship between Mia and Adam. There relationship is one of those that seems like it shouldn't work but it does. There differences bring them closer together. Mia likes classical music and is quit and kinda shy and really isn't that outgoing. But Adam on the other hand is really outgoing and is loud and he likes pop/rock music that is loud. But their relationship couldn't be any stronger. They love each other so much and it makes them so comfortable around each other and they could just talk all day or they could sit in silence without it being awkward. Adam and Mia's relationship is my favorite thing about this book so far.
A quote that is most important in this chapter is when it says "With both arms locked around his waist, she turns to the nurse, her eyes blazing with fury. 'you don't understand!' she cries"(pg 107). This quote is the most important in this chapter because it shows how the relationship between Adam and Kim is growing stronger. Adam and Kim were only "friends" because of Mia. They were both very special to Mia in different ways and that is why they were connected. But Mia always wanted them to be closer, and this is when it happens. Kim accepts Adam and lets him fall into her arms so she can comfort him, not because of Mia, she did it because she wanted to. Kim wanted to make Adam feel like someone was there for him through this rough time because he just found out that Mia is in the hospital and then right after that he finds out that he is not allowed to see her. This is all that Mia has ever wanted and now that Kim and Adam are actually friends no matter what happens of whether she stays or not, she feels like she at least accomplished this.
