I am crying and I am mad and I am heartbroken. I am an incoherent, blubbery mess. Why did I read this book? I should have known I couldn't handle it. Jojo Moyes, you are a brilliant writer but I kind of hate you right now. Why would you do this to us?
I just want to read this book all over again and hope that a new ending will magically write itself. An unrealistic but happy ending. Ugh I just don't know. I kept holding on to that tiny hope of a happy ending, even though things just obviously weren't going the right way, and that just made things a lot worse for me in the end.

This book gave me the experience every reader craves. I laughed, out loud, so many times. And felt the tug of the heart strings even more often. It has the perfect balance of all the emotions, with plot development that is lovely and unpredictable. This is my The Fault in our Stars for 2013. It does swear more than TFIOS and isn't YA, but it just brought me so much joy. My real sorrow is that it's over.

Disfruté mucho el libro y la historia. Prácticamente lo devoré cuando el tiempo me dejaba. Sin embargo, este libro tiene tres estrellas por cómo se aborda el tema de la discapacidad y la rehabilitación.
¡Ahí va Génesis la psicóloga a sobrepsicosocioanalizar todo! Este libro y su historia perpetúan la idea de que la discapacidad es una enfermedad y que el destino inevitable de las personas que viven con alguna es el sufrimiento. Igualmente, entiendo que Lou es el personaje principal acá, pero vamos, Will se merecía un POV, un espacio en donde pudiésemos conocer su propia narrativa.
