Me Before You

Jojo Moyes

        I have started my second book, Me Before You. It’s a romantic novel. Actually, I have watched the movie. The story is so appealing that I want to buy this book and read it thoroughly. This book is mainly talked about the love story between Louisa and Will who is a wheelchair-bound after an accident. Their rendezvous is begun with the unemployment of Louisa.

        Louisa is an ordinary girl living an exceedingly ordinary life－steady boyfriend, harmony family－who has barely been farther afield than her tiny village. Unfortunately, she need to find a new job because she loses her job in a café. Going through thick and thin, she successfully finds a job which is being a caregiver. At first, she is completely nervous because she doesn’t want to help someone elder to do something private. That is such an embarrassing for a young woman with no caregivers’ skills. However, to her surprise, she is required to take care and company with a young man who is paralyzed after a car accident. Although she is not quite sure who the man is, she still takes this job. Louisa has to afford her family’s living.

        As for Louisa’s situation, I have every sympathy for her. She is so glad that she can work in the café. She likes the environment, the people, and the things happening there. Due to her boss’s personal factors, she suddenly loses her career. If I were her, I will feel panic because I lose something that takes a large part of my life. Unemployment has been a concept, something will give people disheartenment. Moreover, she is the person who need to support the whole family’s living. I am glad to see that she finds a new job. And I also look forward to see what will happen in the following story.
