Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. Great narration by Susan Lyons and a team of others. Moyes does a great job of inspiring empathy for an unpopular perspective. So as not to completely spoil it for you, you'll have to read the book if your curious about what I'm referring to...or another review....or, watch the movie. ;-) ( ) I would not call this a romance novel. While there is a teeny tiny bit of romance, the story revolves more around the idea of loving and living life to the fullest. "Wait, Rochelle! Did you just say a book about a couple where one of them decided to pursue assisted suicide is about loving and living life?!?" Yes. In short, the recently handicapped man teaches his caregiver to live life to the fullest because you never know when you won't be able to do what you love anymore. Through his prodding and pushing and her subsequent sassing back they fall in love. It's a sweet story and really quite the cautionary tale. But if you're hoping for a happy ending, it doesn't happen. That's where the book looses me a bit. I have strong morals and suicide of any kind is wrong. However, I hope and pray that I NEVER have to know the kind of mental and emotional pain that is displayed in Will Trayner's character. It's unimaginable for me and because of that I could not cast judgment upon someone in that position. The story is well written and a beautifully painful view of what life could be like in any of the character's lives. But don't pick this book up for its "romantic" story line. Full Review: wanderinglectiophile.wordpress.com/2017/10/13/review-me-before-you-by-jojo-moyes/ I really, really loved this novel. I know that's a bit of a broad statement, but it's all I could say when I finished reading this. The plot was original, the characters felt real and lovable and were flawed, and Moyes writing style was so easy yet engaging to read. One of my favorite parts of "Me Before You" was the fact that multiple relationships were explored: between Lou and Will; Lou and her family; and Lou and Patrick. It wasn't just a constant stream of storytelling between Lou/Will, but the themes of the book (the "me before you" part, if you will) were looked at in different lights. There are multiple kinds of love, sacrifice, and hurt, and I really like Moyes did a wonderful job of writing about different types. Also, such solid character development! REALLY good! And it felt natural, too- I can't wait to see what happens in the next book! (And yes- I cried. A few times. But I also smiled a lot. The birthday party scene just made me so smiley and happy that I felt like hugging the book.) That's all I'm going to say- I don't want to spoil anything, but I would recommend this book pretty much to anyone. It's heartfelt, funny, and original, and I already want to read it again.
It’s a curious phenomenon that in this digital age — in which thoughts that once emerged quietly and gradually on paper have been overtaken by instantaneous visual and audio impressions that are swiftly taken in without really being absorbed — the rapt viewer sometimes needs to be jarred, slowed down and forced to look inward. In “Me Before You,” circumstances lead noncontemplative people to contemplation...Moyes’s heroine, if Lou can be so styled, may not be heroic; her male counterpart may be nobody’s idea of a leading man — and yet with Lou and Will she has created an affair to remember.

When she learns that Will has shocking plans of his own, she sets out to show him that life is still worth living. A Love Story for this generation, Me Before You brings to life two people who couldn't 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?
