Hi,
I just finished this amazing book and apparently it's hard to stop crying or stop being so angry. I'm sooooo angry at this book, I cannot even put it into words. And it's not the bad kind of angry, it's the sad kind of angry. You probably guessed it by now, I read Me before you by Jojo Moyes. Everyone has been talking about it in the book community and I saw the trailer for the movie, so I wanted to read it and see it for myself, why is this book so hyped up. This book made me feel so many emotions and if I'm honest, it wasn't quite what I expected. I expected it to be more about the love, but instead it was more about the decisions, more about the friendship and the fact that sometimes we can't save, who we want to save or we can not make them stay, even when we love them. I think Clark and Will have the cutest friendship in book history. For me their love wasn't that important in this book. Of course it was there, we could see it and there was even a big moment, but it didn't make much difference. Because the most important thing in my opinion were the things they taught each other and the memories and feelings they gave each other. I was hoping, Will will change his mind, but towards the end I kne
w he wouldn't. It was heartbreaking. And parts of me can understand him, but the other part of me is screaming at him for doing that. Louisa is the absolute hero, because I think it would be very hard to stay positive in a situation like this. But she managed it and I think this was the biggest lesson of her life. The scene at the clinic was the most heart-wrenching, because we all knew what's going to happen, but they were just lying there together and telling each other how good the six months together were.
I think this book is about possibilities and to use our opportunities, because they are there just once. Yes, this book was painful, but it also made me think about a lot of things in my life and I like it, when a book makes me question some parts of my life. On some ways every book, every story has a lesson or two about life, even if it's obvious or is something you already know. This book thought me life is short and your possibilities are there to take them and use them to get the best out of yourself. And also it taught me that it doesn't matter how crazy you're brother/sister or parents are, you can count on them when you need them.
Thanks for reading my review, if you read the book, please share your opinion about it in the comments.
Bye Bianka
