After You by Jojo Moyes

 



This is the sequel to "Me Before You," the well written tear jerker and testament to love published by Moyes in 2013 that sold over five million copies.  If you've not read "Me Before You," you need to read it first and then read this one--not just so you get the history of the characters right, but because it really is such a fantastic read.  In the first book, Louisa Clark takes a job working for wheelchair bound Will Traynor.  Will is acerbic, moody, bossy, and she soon finds herself caring about his happiness more than she expected.  I don't know what I can tell you about this one without spoiling what happens in her previous book, but suffice it to say that after the transformative 6 months she spent with Will Traynor in "Me Before You," she is struggling.  An extraordinary accident forces her to return home to her family and she can't help but feel she is right back where she started.  Like its predecessor it tackles difficult subjects giving you a roller coaster ride that will have you laughing, crying, and rejoicing.
