Ive been impatient to get my hands on this. I also picked up on Mia's change too, becoming less like the professional, world-renowned cellist Mia and more like the old one, whose love of music brought her and Adam together. Gayle Forman is an award-winning, internationally bestselling author and journalist. Gayle Formans powerful prose explores grief, pain, and the possibility of rekindling a spark surrounded by chaos. I loved the transformation of Adam throughout his night spent with Mia, ending with his many revelations about the band, his new girlfriend and Mia herself. Here are my favourite lyrics and the song I would want to listen to most:ĪMAZING! The best songs always have amazing lyrics.Īnyway, in my eyes the ending was brilliant, though I pretty much guessed it was going to happen (it really needed to).

The lyrics were so powerful and meaningful, and it really made me want to hear the song with the instruments and tune. Gayle worked as a freelance correspondent for several publications such as Cosmopolitan, The Nation, Elle Magazine, and in 2002, she went on a world tour with her husband, Nick. She attended school and college in California. Summary: Adam, now a rising rock star, and Mia, a successful cellist, reunite in New York and reconnect after the horrific events that tore them apart when Mia almost died in a car accident three years earlier. On the subject of the album, named 'Collateral Damage', the lyrics of all the different tracks were written at the beginning of the chapters and I've got to say Gayle Forman would make an AMAZING song-writer. Gayle Forman was born on June 5, 1970, in her hometown, Los Angele, California.

Since then, the band, Shooting Star, completely took off with the album that Adam wrote after his break-up, the songs of which ended up winning numerous awards. Where She Went is told from the perspective of Adam, three years after Mia woke up from her coma and went of to Julliard, basically stamping Adam out of her life.
