Me Before You : By Jojo Moyes

Me Before You
By Jojo Moyes


“When I finished this novel, I didnt want to review it: I wanted to reread it … Moyes’s story provokes tears that are redemptive, the opposite of gratuitous. Some situations, she forces the reader to recognize, really are worth crying over … with Lou and Will she has created an affair to remember.”
New York Times Book Review

“An unlikely love story … To be devoured like candy, between tears.”
O, The Oprah Magazine

A Love Story for this generation, Me Before You brings to life two people who couldnt have less in common–a heartbreakingly romantic novel that asks, What do you do when making the person you love happy also means breaking your own heart?

Louisa Clark is an ordinary girl living an exceedingly ordinary life–steady boyfriend, close family–who has never been farther afield than her tiny village. She takes a badly needed job working for exMaster of the Universe Will Traynor, who is wheelchair-bound after an accident. Will has always lived a huge life–big deals, extreme sports, worldwide travel–and now he’s pretty sure he cannot live the way he is.

Will is acerbic, moody, and bossy–but Lou refuses to treat him with kid gloves, and soon his happiness means more to her than she expected. When she learns that Will has shocking plans of his own, she sets out to show him that life is still worth living.
