Review: Me Before You


Me Before You
Me Before You by Jojo Moyes

My rating: 5 of 5 stars




I'm so sad my stomach hurts. I read the last 50ish pages with my hand clapped over the lower half of my face, holding in the denial I could feel building inside of me at the ending of the book.

You can see it coming, but there's nothing you can do to stop it.

This is a marvelous, moving, and tremendously sad book that doesn't shirk from the hard questions regarding assisted suicide and a patient's right to self-determination. I recommend it, but one shouldn't finish reading it in public, or anywhere where there's no ready access to facial tissues.
