Si decido quedarme (Si Decido Quedarme Ser.)
by Gayle FormanTiene que decidirse: su familia y Nueva York, su novio y su amor por la música clásica. Pero entonces, ocurre un accidente. Ya nada será como antes. Y solo le queda una decisión: vivir o morir. Mia tiene diecisiete años, un hermano pequeño de ocho, un padre músico y el don de tocar el chelo como los ángeles. Muy pronto se examinará para entrar en la prestigiosa escuela Juilliard, en Nueva York, y, si la admiten, deberá dejarlo todo: su ciudad, su familia, su novio y sus amigas. Aunque el chelo es su pasión, la decisión la inquieta desde hace semanas. Una mañana de febrero, la ciudad se levanta con un manto de nieve y las escuelas cierran. La joven y su familia aprovechan el asueto inesperado para salir de excursión en coche. Es un día perfecto, están relajados, escuchando música y charlando. Pero en un instante todo cambia. Un terrible accidente deja a Mia malherida en la cama de un hospital. Mientras su cuerpo se debate entre la vida y la muerte, la joven ha de elegir si desea seguir adelante. Y esa decisión es lo único que importa.
