Me Before You: A Novel (Me Before You Trilogy)
Louisa Clark is an ordinary young woman living an exceedingly ordinary life—steady boyfriend, close family—who has never been farther afield than their tiny village. She takes a badly needed job working for ex-Master of the Universe Will Traynor, who is wheelchair-bound after an accident. Will has always lived a huge life—big deals, extreme sports, worldwide travel—and now he’s pretty sure he cannot live the way he is.
Will is acerbic, moody, bossy—but Lou refuses to treat him with kid gloves, and soon his happiness means more to her than she expected. When she learns that Will has shocking plans of his own, she sets out to show him that life is still worth living.
A love story for this generation, Me Before You brings to life two people who couldn’t have less in common—a heartbreakingly romantic novel that asks, What do you do when making the person you love happy also means breaking your own heart?

This a gorgeous book. Lou is such a compelling narrative voice, and Will so tangible a character. It's been a while since I've read a book I could not put down... Four flights in just over a week's time was all I needed to finish it! Jojo Moyes' writing is all at once familiar, honest, and poignant.
I don't know what to say about this. It was really well-written and I had all the feelings.
It reminds me of Pride & Prejudice and Pygmalion.
