What Would be One Small Detail that, if Changed, Might Change the Outcome of the Story.

In my opinion, life is all about timing. There are so many instances when you believe being early or late can be such a downfall in the moment, but in the grand scheme of things, that instant can be the reason you are still alive to this day. The book, If I Stay, clearly demonstrates this by the main family gets into a car crash and the mom and dad die on impact. When put in a tragic situation, you begin to think about the possible situations that could have went on if something went differently. If Mia, who shares the point of view, sat somewhere else in the car or didn't go at all, she might still be alive and without a family to return to.
