Me before you 

Have you ever thought that love can be the reason to live? Never? So, you don’t know the love story of Louisa Clark and Will Traynor in “Me before you”.

Louisa Clark is the female protagonist of the book. She’s a 26 years old girl from a humble family, who has her life, practically, resolved. She works in a coffee shop called The Buttered Bun and has been dating for several years with Patrick, her boyfriend, who is an athlete.

On the other hand, the male protagonist is Will Traynor, a young businessman who became paraplegic after an accident. This accident will leave an important mark in his life that will change everything, even his vision of life. After that, he loses the desire to live and he becomes a pessimist and selfish person.

The story of our characters begins when, Louisa, loses her job in the cafeteria due to the closure of the same. Her family is going through an unstable economic moment and, therefore, they need the eldest of the daughters to help with household expenses. For this reason, Louisa, decides to work for a rich family who needs a special caregiver.

Contrary to the first impression between the two, their connection was brief and inevitable. Louisa, with her explosive and colorful personality, captivates the cold and dead heart of Will. Together, they overcome the adversities that life presents to them.

From the first moment, I have lived this story as if it were mine. The author, through her simple writing, has been able to convey the feelings of each of the characters.

Finally, I recommend reading this book for the message it transmits. We have to learn to confront life with or without its adversities, and live it to the fullest from the minute 0 to the end because we have one opportunity to enjoy it.
