Anyone see there's a sequel to Me Before You
I had no idea!!
Not really sure how I feel about it.
But I will definitely be reading it.
After You by JoJo Moyes..
When one story ends, another begins. The sequel to the beloved New York Times million-copy bestseller, Me Before You.
How do you move on after losing the person you loved? How do you build a life worth living?
Louisa Clark is no longer just an ordinary girl living an ordinary life. After the transformative six months spent with Will Traynor, she is struggling without him. When an extraordinary accident forces Lou to return home to her family, she can’t help but feel she’s right back where she started.
Her body heals, but Lou herself knows that she needs to be kick-started back to life. Which is how she ends up in a church basement with the members of the Moving On support group, who share insights, laughter, frustrations, and terrible cookies. They will also lead her to the strong, capable Sam Fielding—the paramedic, whose business is life and death, and the one man who might be able to understand her. Then a figure from Will’s past appears and hijacks all her plans, propelling her into a very different future. . . .
For Lou Clark, life after Will Traynor means learning to fall in love again, with all the risks that brings. But here Jojo Moyes gives us two families, as real as our own, whose joys and sorrows will touch you deeply, and where both changes and surprises await.
After You is quintessential Jojo Moyes—a novel that will make you laugh, cry, and rejoice at being back in the world she creates. Here she does what few novelists can do—revisits beloved characters and takes them to places neither they nor we ever expected.

I'm reading it now - so far so good, but I'm not very far into it yet

Let us know how it is. I just finished Me Before You, which was great but I'm afraid to read the sequel because it may take away from the story in the first book.

Just finished this last night. I liked it - not as much as Me Before You, but it wasn't bad!

Finally just finished it (was reading it on my kindle and there was a download issue - the last 1/4 of the book was missing!). Overall I enjoyed it but thought there were some spots in the middle that seemed a little slow. I would definitely recommend it if you read Me Before You.

I don't think it took away from Me Before You. It was just really a continuation of Louisa's life - and how Will impacted that in so many ways. I kept thinking if they made a movie out of the books they could make one movie from both books.

They are making a movie about the book. Its coming out June 2016 with Emilia Clark and Sam Calfin. Its just the first book though.

I just finished this. It was good. Not as good as Me Before You but worth the read.

Oh, wow! That's exciting! Maybe they'll eventually make a second movie from After You, too!
