They
had nothing in common until love gave them everything to lose. Louisa Clark is
an ordinary girl 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 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 Louisa 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? The 2016 film version stars Sam Claflin and Emilia Clarke.
The discussion group centers on books that were made into movies.
