The WIFI has returned! Thank goodness. I've been at my Nan's house since Thursday and the WIFI hasn't been working, but I have been writing posts! Like the good girl I am. And another review! I am on fire. More than one in a month. Insane. Last week I read Me Before You and I here I am telling you what I think about it. So let’s go.
I enjoyed this book, although I didn’t find it extremely emotional like a lot of people do. Given, it was sad, and I laughed a couple of times, however there was no weeping or “feels”; if you know what I mean. You should read it though. It was good. The characters were interesting, and I enjoyed the story, although I found the ending rather abrupt and anticlimactic. So go now, read it, and return to read my spoiler section.
The End,
Now, SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS.
I found the story very predictable. It was obvious when Lou met Will that originally he would be horrible and then they would develop feelings for each other and then he would die. It’s a commonly used plot. That’s not to say I didn’t enjoy it though. The character development was interesting, their interactions were intriguing. It is a good book but I don’t think it deserves all the hype it’s gotten. Also, I still can’t pronounce quadriplegic. Wait, yes I can. I just did. The part that let me down was the ending. It was so abrupt. Suddenly, he's dead. There's no big scene or anything, which I suppose is more realistic, however doesn't so much make for a good story. In my head I saw this big dramatic ending is life and the desperation of there love blahdy blah so much so that I found the actual ending anticlimactic. That may be my fault, but all the reviews I had watched of it played it up to be emotionally heart-wrenching. It just wasn't for me.
That's really all I have to say: it was a good book, but I was expecting more because of all the hype it received.
