This story starts out with Lou Clark losing her job at The Buttered Bun tea shop and I could honestly really relate to the way she was feeling during that period, especially with the financial responsibility she held for her family. I’m glad she didn’t quit after her first day with Will.All I can say is that you make me...you make me into someone I couldn't even imagine. You make me happy, even when you're awful.I would rather be with you- even the you that you seem to think is diminished- than with anyone else in the world.” Barker, Andrew (24 May 2016).

This reenforces very dangerous assumptions society already has about people with disabilities. Many (able bodied) people have commented that they completely understand Will and if they were in his position they'd want to die too. I closed my eyes and lay my head against the headrest, and we sat there together for a while longer, two people lost in remembered music, half hidden in the shadow of a castle on a moonlit hill.”i respect Will's choice in the end, even though it broke my heart - but he finally had control over something and he chose it. But all in all, there isn’t a word for this book that can describe just how much it meant to me. I felt really connected to Lou and Will and their families. Me Before You had extremely vivid characters, infectious humor, and bittersweet truth. Will used to live boldly, he was an attractive guy on his early thirties with a great job, a hot girlfriend and an amazing life in London until one day everything changes. I just... I can't even pretend anymore, screw the book snobbery, I thought Me Before You was wonderful. INTERVIEW: Emilia Clarke on Me Before You and Game of Thrones". HuffPost. 6 June 2016.

I drew the world he had created for me, full of wonder and possibility.”Like a lot of people, I cried at the end of this book, but unlike probably most, not out of sadness, but out of anger.

She goes to the Job Center and, after several failed attempts, is offered a unique employment opportunity: help care for Will Traynor, a successful, wealthy, and once-active young man who developed quadriplegia in a pedestrian-motorcycle accident two years earlier. Point being, I was bored, it elicited no emotion from me, and I had to drag myself through each chapter. i don't think it's controversial to categorize sadness as a negative emotion, but here we are in the final days of 2022, when every. single. year for at least the past decade and a half contains a baker's dozen of bestselling romantic dramas.So it was really against my instinct and better judgement that I began reading this book. But this is NOT a romance novel. In fact it is a brilliant comment on the issue of euthanasia which claims it's brilliance by reading like a romance novel and not a political comment. Having personally cared for a handful of terminal people over a period of years, I feel I can safely say that many of the thoughts on serious aquired disabities and the quality of life is fairly realistic, and though the romance part can't avoid a bit of Hollywood-sheen, it never really gets unbelievable, and helps the reader engage him/herself in the characters and thus in their horrible dilemma. I would have had an easier time understanding the book if he had been miserable until the end. If the book had showed us that his life really was miserable and he couldn't go on, it would have been incredibely sad and depressing (still entirely unromantic), but I would get that. Let him die of pneumonia. That would be sad, but at least it wouldn't send such a disturbing message. If you haven't already been told, the story is about Lou who needs a job and Will who needs a carer after an accident left him paralysed.

Horrified by this discovery, Lou sets out to improve his life and give him a reason to live and look forward to each day. The relationship between them is told in such a wonderful way and develops through several stages, each filled with hilarity.
