Jojo Moyes has written in the beginning of this book that she doesn't want anyone writing a review to spoil what happens in Me Before you, the first book in the series. And, I fully understand that. So that left me with a choice to either write a review that more or less didn't bring up anything that happen in this book that could spoil the first book or spoiler tag the whole review. I have chosen to write a review that doesn't spoil the book.
First of all do I want to say that you need to read the first book; do not attempt to read this book without having read the first book. Some books are standalone, some aren't. This one should without a doubt be read after Me Before you.
The book is wonderful. I had no idea about the story before I read the book. No clues about what would happen and that was a real treat not knowing how or if Moyes would be able to write a book as gripping as Me Before You. She has! I had to fight back tears several times when I read this book, and I pride myself with not being a crier. Lou Clark is such a wonderful character and I loved getting to read about her and her family and friends in another book.
I loved this book. It was such a treat to get a sequel to Me Before You. And, I hope for a third book!
I received this copy from the publisher through NetGalley in return for an honest review! Thank you
