Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
What an amazing book! I could give this 100 stars! Books
like this are why I love reading. I
could not put this book down! Louisa or Lou was so interesting, kind-hearted
and a real person. Wil was full of complexities and even though at times he was
a real jerk you could not help but fall in love with him and root for him.
I loved how Lou transformed throughout the novel and how her
and Wil’s lives seemed to switch places-of sorts. They were opposites but perfectly matched.
Lou’s family was also entertaining. The author really captured
the little family quirks and she described the perfect family for Lou. I
especially loved to see how her relationship with Treena evolved.
Lou seemed to bring out the best in everyone, she even made
Ms. & Mr. Traynor more likeable, there were no bad guys vs good guys, just
very different people joined by one person-Wil.
To me a fantastic book is one that you can’t put down, the
pages are numberless because you are a part of the story, and the characters
are real-or your convinced they are. I
couldn’t wait to see how it all ended but I was sad when it did.
Moyes took a very delicate matter and gave it a name and a
cast of characters to humanize the issue.
Incredibly well written and as the Brits say-brilliant!!
