A review by connie_joy
Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
5.0
I have never been so hurt, angry and lost after finishing a book. I finished this a few days ago now, and I haven't reviewed it for a couple of reasons. Mainly because I have never been so angry with and hurt by a character, yet still loved them so deeply. What Will did, I honestly don't know how to feel.
But, let's address the story as a whole, amazing. I adored the characters, I connected with them and (in Will's case) fell a little bit in love. There are plenty of beautiful moments in amongst the sadness - and I laughed out loud multiple times! I read the first 50 pages one day and then picked it up again the next night. Sobbing at 1 am. Towards the end, I was stupid enough to think 'Hey, maybe I won't cry at this book.' I don't think I've ever been more wrong in my life. My pillow was, quite literally, drenched with my tears. So, because this book affected me so strongly and did everything a book could possibly do to you. I give it 5 stars. I honestly don't know what else to say.
It's given me a book hangover.
P.S. Look up T.W.s
