Me Before You

Jojo Moyes, 2012

Louisa Clark leads a routine existence. When she looses her job at a cafe, she applies for and gets a job caring for Will, a recently paralyzed man. Will Traynor, suffered a spinal cord injury when hit by a motorcycle.  His frustration with quadriplegia makes the job almost unbearable for Lou. When she discovers that Will intends to end his own life, Lou makes it her mission to persuade him that life is still worth living. In the process of planning “adventures”, Lou begins to understand the extent of Will’s isolation; while Will introduces Lou to ideas outside of her small existence. The end result is a lovely novel, both nontraditional and enthralling.
