Me Before You by Jojo Moyes

3.75

emotional inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Yes

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The personalities of the characters were written very well, which translated into their behaviours, expressions, coping strategies, etc. The plot itself is not one I normally go for- the whole falling in love despite having an illness/disability trope, ending in tragedy. It’s very predictable. However, the characters and their dialogue were witty, quirky, deeply- thought out and very relatable and I couldn’t put the book down. I haven’t seen the movie, but I am interested in seeing how it compares.
