Will needed Lou as much as she needed him, but will her love be enough to save his life?
Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun teashop and she knows she might not love her boyfriend Patrick.
What Lou doesn’t know is she’s about to lose her job or that knowing what’s coming is what keeps her sane.
Will Traynor knows his motorcycle accident took away his desire to live. He knows everything feels very small and rather joyless now and he knows exactly how he’s going to put a stop to that.
What Will doesn’t know is that Lou is about to burst into his world in a riot of colour. And neither of them knows they’re going to change the other for all time.
Beautifully romantic, moving and heart-wrenching, Me Before You is the unforgettable love story that defined a decade.
If you fell in love with Lou Clark, find out what she does next in After You and Still Me – out now!

non è semplicemente un libro!!!
Ho terminato in tarda mattinata la lettura di questo libro e devo dire che le ultime pagine le ho lette a fatica…non ce la facevo ma solo perchè i miei occhi erano appannati dalle lacrime e singhiozzavo come una bambina e avevo paura di sapere dove mi avrebbe portato. Posso decisamente affermare che è uno dei libri più belli che abbia mai letto, questa è una storia d’amore, una delicata meravigliosa storia d’amore tra due persone che non potrebbero essere più diverse, ma solo apparentemente perchè Lou e Will sono due anime affini, forse sole e perse nel mondo, che il destino e la vita hanno fatto incontrare e hanno dato loro la possibilità di migliorarsi conoscersi e cambiare il loro futuro. Anche ora che sono le 23.10 se ripenso a certi passaggi mi si riempiono gli occhi di lacrime e non riesco a smettere di pensare, è come se avessi salutato una parte di me stessa nel lasciare Lou e Will, le loro parole i loro gesti è come se li avessi ascoltati e pronunciati io stessa, l’intensità è la medesima e continuerà ancora per molto a farmi compagnia, mi ha toccata nel profondo e mi ha dato moltissimi spunti su cui riflettere…quindi detto tutto ciò non posso far altro che consigliarlo a tutti coloro che sanno amare e che credono nella potenza di questo sentimento!!!
Awesome
Bello, bello, bello, ho acquistato questo libro dopo aver visto il film in tv, quanti particolari, quante scene nascoste in questo bel romanzo, se facessero il film tale e quale al testo, anche durasse 20 ore, lo guarderei sicuramente, erano anni che non leggevo in inglese è stato bello riprendere con questa bellissima opera.
A must read!
Libro coinvolgente ed emozionante, ben scritto ed equilibrato tra sentimentale e di spirito. Consigliatissimo, letto in lingua originale ancora meglio.
Love it
Love this book. Really interesting.
Consoglio caldamente questo libro
Sono le 3 di notte, l’ho appena finito, ho gli occhi così gonfi di lacrime… à stato un colpo allo stomaco!E ogni tanto ci vuole!L’avevo già adocchiato da un po, ma solo dopo aver visto il trailer del film ormai prossimo, ho deciso di acquistarlo.L’inglese mi sembra abbastanza comprensibile, e poi il libro é scorrevolissimo di per se.Se cercate una storia emozionante, lacrime, tra “adattamenti e cambiamenti”, questo é il libro giusto! 🙂
Intenso e coinvolgente
Lettura intensa e commovente, lâho riacquistato da regalare perché mi è piaciuto molto
Un must per gli amanti delle storie commuoventi.
Ho acquistato “Me before you” dopo aver visto il film al cinema. Toccata dalla storia e dalla bravura degli attori, ho deciso di leggere il romanzo in lingua originale. Sin dalle prime pagine, mi sono innamorata perdutamente della Lou e del Will cartacei.La scrittura di Jojo Moyes tratta con squisita delicatezza un tema spinoso come quello dell’eutanasia, facendo oscillare la vicenda tra ilarità e desolata disperazione.Consigliatissimo!
Da leggere tutto d’un fiato!
Questo è stato uno dei romanzi più belli che io abbia mai letto!Si trattano temi scottanti ad attualissimi, ma con molto tanto e “leggerezza d’animo” che porta a riflettere e anche a rivedere le proprie posizioni.Non vi dico le lacrime delle ultime pagine, toccanti, bellissime… La fine non è affatto scontata e, anche per questo, è un libro raccomandatissimo.
i was reluctant to read this after all the hype about the movie. I used to love romance novels but my interest in them has greatly faded in recent years. However, this book exceeded all my expectations and I would recommend it to anyone. It was an enjoyable read that I couldn’t put down.
I usually go by the motto read book before you watch the film adaption, but that wasnât the case with Me before You. I happened to see the trailer of Me Before You on various Social networking sites and I was intrigued. I watched the movie and I was blown. I was thinking since I have already seen the movie, the book wonât shock me. I was proved wrong.I will be very honest, I love to read books which will take me on an emotional roller coaster and leaves me high and dry. I have always been drawn to tragic love stories (thanks to my obsession with Romeo and Juliet) so naturally I went ahead and bought the book.This is a story of two young people who are battered by the life. Lou by chance gets a job in Traynor Mansion and becomes a care taker for Will Traynor. Will Traynor who was once a active young man is now paralyzed due to a motor cycle accident. Will given the circumstances is aloof, cranky and obnoxious most of the time to Lou. As the time passes, their relationship smoothes as Will begins to get intrigued with her. Will and Louâs light banter and the way Will teases her are written well and reader gets to see the funny and sarcastic side of Will many times.I have always believed if the author can make you cry your heart out, he/she has succeeded in their story telling. Thatâs what exactly Jojo Moyes has done. For all the laughs and joy you experience with Lou and Will, the author has multiplied it thrice with sorrow. My heart was twisted with a knife every time when Will was miserable over his state.You get to see the characters growing, becoming independent. Lou, who was afraid to lead a life of her own, flourishes beautifully under the guidance of Will. She starts loving herself more. Will who was miserable over his state, starts opening up, starts to enjoy the little moments.The book not only makes you cry, its also makes you laugh. This book is not just about Love. Itâs about Friendship. Itâs a story of Life and Death and want comes in between. Everything in the book seemed real for me. The pain, the misery, the embarrassment faced by Will feels all real. Nowhere did I feel any situation was just added for the sake of filling the pages.My heart has been broken to million pieces over the ending and yet I cannot complain about it. Willâs decision over his life seemed acceptable to me.The book is well edited. The author has given heart wrenching dialogues and scenes. The book is a definite page turner. I rate this book 5 Stars.
This book needs to be read in your bed alone where you can cry your eyes out. It’s really a lovely story and it sucks the reader in. Literally can’t put the book down once you start it.
Great Story!!
This is apparently a sad love story, but it has provoked us to consider how to end our lives with dignity. Of course, helping suicide is not permitted, though. When Will is quadriplegic with one arm slightly movable caused by an accident at the age of 29, he is always suffering from terrible pain and infection. A successful business person into a wheelchaired lifewith a 24-hour care. Lou was a last 6-month carer, and both of them fell in love. Lou stayed with him until his last minute when he chose his way of death. He thinks that to live is to control and decide everything by himself and get going with responsibility.
