I went into this book knowing what was going to happen but wanting an emotional release. What I didn't expect, was becoming so invested in the characters from the start. Louisa is such a well-developed and dynamic character, and watching her come to terms with the world around her and discover herself is wonderful. I do have to say that once Louisa's trauma is revealed, we rarely hear about it again which was kind of strange. 
This is a beautiful book with a beautiful message to live life to the fullest and choose how you live. Additionally, Will and Louisa have amazing banter that will make you laugh throughout. 
If I had one true critique, it was that there was some very abrupt point of view jumping which could be jarring.

Don't think of me too often. I don't want to think of you getting all maudlin. Just live well.

Just live.

This is a really sweet but sad story. It moved slowly and took longer than it should have to finish. I would recommend it, though, but you have to be in the right frame of mind. The bulk of the story isn’t too sad but you feel like something terrible is lurking just around the corner.
