This is the sequel to Jojo Moyes earlier book "Me Before You". After Will had decided to (legally) end his life, Louisa, his caretaker cum lover, had no choice but to continue living. The biggest problem of all was she could not move on. And according to Sam, her new boyfriend, they could not get into a more serious relationship as she was still in love with a ghost, and this reminds so much of the classic novel "Wuthering Heights" which I read when I was in university. Then there was this Lily, Will's daughter born out of wedlock whom he himself did not know about which had made Louisa's life became too complicated and miserable, and reading the book was depressing at times. Thanks for its happy ending - I swore I would burn the paperback if it was ended in a sad note. Go read this novel but not after reading the first book first.

BOOK REVIEW - "ME BEFORE YOU"
I stayed up until 1:30 a.m. to finish up my reading and found the ending too depressing, I regretted staying up. Lou was the carer to Will, the son of a filthy rich family, who was bound to the wheelchair after an accident. Lou had not only to take care of him, but her mission was actually to change Will's mind to (legally) end his life as he felt that he was a hopeless. Instead, Will had made Lou changed her outlook towards life and Lou fell for him. Unfortunately, Lou's love for her was not enough and nothing could change his ultimate decision to die.
I only watched the movie (online) halfway so I thought they would live happily ever after eventually.
I need a story with a happy ending, please. *sobs*
