Third Quarter SSR
I very much enjoyed reading the novel If I Stay by Gale Forman this quarter. To summarize, this young adult fiction is a love story that revolves around the main character Mia fighting for her life after a fatal car crash. I believe that in 100 years this book will no longer be read. To begin with, I think this is because the technology from the novel would not match the possible futuristic technology at the time. More specifically a part of the story takes place at a local hospital where she is in critical conditions. I feel that they would have new and improved machines to help this state and to get her back to stability defeating the main journey of the novel.
On the other hand, readers of any time would be able to sense or even relate to the strong connection two of the main characters share.For example, the book is made up mainly of sequences of flashbacks of the two teens love story. Different factors of the book would allow it to fit in with the books 100 years from now however other distinct factors would not.

I think this book would be read in 100 years because it has a little bit of everything. I believe that with the new and improved technology, this book will give people the chance to see how it worked 100 years ago. Plus it's a love story, it has a very strong chance of being read hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI actually attempted to read this novel before but ended up not finishing the book; however, after seeing how you enjoyed the book, I might give it a second chance. Also, I think I ended up not finishing the book because I watched the movie, so while reading it, I pretty much knew what is going to happen, which made it less entertaining, but I did enjoy watching the movie.
