Read the book and enjoyed it. Watched the film last week and enjoyed that also. It’s not often I enjoy a film after reading the book.

Yes! And I’m going to read this book again now that I’ve been reminded how wonderful it was. I think I read it about three, maybe four years ago.

A lot of people rave over it, but it didn’t do anything for me. I hated the ‘hey, you’reading reading a book’ approach to storytelling. If I’m immersed in a story I don’t want the narrator to keep reminding me it’s not real! Very disappointed.

Its an amazing book. but its not an easy read you have to keep going. Its also a style that I think will divide people. Once i got into it i was pleased but didnt enjoy the process that much

This is a fantastic book, the writing is amazing. When someone tells me that they want to learn how to write, this is one of the books I highly recommend; the story is almost secondary…

Me Before You – another excellent, thought provoking book. Another on a similar theme is The Universe Versus Alex Woods by Gavin Extence – funny, sad, great characters.
