Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
5.0
Fantastic! I was made aware that this was adapted into a film and that it was wonderful.
I say this about the film (not having laid eyes on it yet) as I say about all films made about books...
I don't think it's as good as the book.
This book showed a transformation. It was an emotional rollercoaster and that is a sweeping understatement. The romance came about naturally and didn't come across forced (which I believe her relationship with Patrick was). Louisa Clark, an unemployed waitress who went through multiple "dead end" jobs to find her way in life, stumbles upon a caregiver job that pays extremely well. It's almost too good to be true. She questions her decision early but ultimately settles into the position. She even blows off other events to stay with Will. I could practically see the romance blossom before my eyes. The experience changes Louisa and I can't wait to begin reading the next book in the series.
