( ) The narrator was rushed? She didn't make the effort to differentiate the voices very often, and I really had trouble figuring out who was speaking. As a romance/ family drama, this is fine. What makes this series more than chick lit is the issues it tackles. In the first, of course, it's all about assisted suicide. I got the impression Moyes wanted let the readers decide for themselves if & when that's ok. In this book, at least so far, it's made clear that it's never ok. This book, even more than the first, is all about class distinctions... the rich are different. Of course, you can ignore that theme if you just want to focus on Louisa and her misadventures, but imo the book is better for being more than fluff. One thing Moyes did wrong was make her characters act stupidly. The very first thing that should have been said There's also the bit where they rescued Lily from a bad guy. But they didn't do anything to discourage him from

HTML:From the New York Times bestselling author of The Giver of Stars, discover the love story that captured over 20 million hearts in Me Before You, After You, and Still Me. “You’re going to feel uncomfortable in your new world for a bit. But I hope you feel a bit exhilarated too. Live boldly. Push yourself. Don’t settle. Just live well. Just live. Love, Will.” How do you move on after losing the person you loved? How do you build a life worth living? Louisa Clark is no longer just an ordinary girl living an ordinary life. After the transformative six months spent with Will Traynor, she is struggling without him. When an extraordinary accident forces Lou to return home to her family, she can’t help but feel she’s right back where she started. Her body heals, but Lou herself knows that she needs to be kick-started back to life. Which is how she ends up in a church basement with the members of the Moving On support group, who share insights, laughter, frustrations, and terrible cookies. They will also lead her to the strong, capable Sam Fielding—the paramedic, whose business is life and death, and the one man who might be able to understand her. Then a figure from Will’s past appears and hijacks all her plans, propelling her into a very different future. . . . For Lou Clark, life after Will Traynor means learning to fall in love again, with all the risks that brings. But here Jojo Moyes gives us two families, as real as our own, whose joys and sorrows will touch you deeply, and where both changes and surprises await. No library descriptions found.
