📚Absolutely loved reading this series of books by Jojo Moyes this year, her writing is comical in places and very dramatic in others. I had only seen the Me Before You movie before I had started reading these, now I can say that I much prefer the books! 📚  I will now include the different blurbs from each of the books, so you too can see how much goodness these books contain ✨

📚 Me Before You 📚”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 tea shop 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 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. “

📚 After You 📚”Lou Clark has lots of questions. Like how it is she’s ended up working in an airport bar watching other people jet off to new places. Or why her flat she’s owned for a year still doesn’t feel like home. Whether he family can ever forgive her for what she did eighteen months ago. And will she ever get over the love of her life. What Lou does know for certain is that something has to change. Then, one night, it does. But does the stranger on her doorstep hold the answers Lou is looking for- or just more questions? Close the door and life continues: simple, ordered, safe. But Lou once made a promise to live. And if she’s going to keep it, she has to invite them in...”

BOOK REVIEW

I love this book. When I started to read this book I can't stop reading. The story was funny, romantic and heartbreaking at the same time. My best friend suggested this book she said it was really nice. So by the time I bought this book to read the movie was released.  But I decided to read this book first then watch the movie. Trust me it was worth it. I finished this book in three days when I was at the end of the story I didn't want the book to end but after some time, I came to know that this book has a sequel (After you).

Back to the story, it was a great novel. I think it is one of the best novel I ever read. Jojo Moyes portrayed a lot of things, a guy who's struggling with a spinal cord injury (Will Traynor) and a girl who is struggling without a job and how she find one and how she fells for a guy who doesn't like her and who always rude to her(Louisa Clark). I feel so connected with all those characters. Moyes also addressed the topic of human nature and how connecting with certain people will make you see life in a beautiful and in a happier way.

I didn't expect the ending to be so sad. I couldn't take the heartbreak so every time I look at the cover of my book ill cry like a baby. it was truly devastating. But it was a beautiful story. It makes you experience all those emotions Louisa experiences in the story. Overall it is a fun ride you can go on without even thinking too much. After reading the story you'll find happiness in all those small things you do in your life. I would like to finish this review in Will Traynor's words...

" Push yourself,  

 Don't settle, 

 Just live well,

 Just live... " 

 Hope you enjoyed my review, Have a great day.
