Me Before You by Jojo Moyes is a heart-wrenching love story between Louisa Clark, a small-town woman searching for purpose, and Will Traynor, a once-vibrant man now confined to a wheelchair after an accident. As their worlds collide, Louisa's warmth and optimism challenge Will's cynicism, leading to a bond that transforms them both in unexpected ways. Tender, funny, and profoundly emotional, this novel asks what it truly means to live—and to love—fully.
