message 1: by SarahKat, Buddy Reads (new) - rated it 5 stars

SarahKat | 6344 comments This thread is to discuss Me Before You, the first book in the Me Before You Series by Jojo Moyes.


Pages: 369 pages


Length: 1 Month (August)


Participants: Lynn, Ruthie, Sandra


Everyone reads at their own pace during a Buddy Read. Because participants can be at different parts of the book at different times, it is extremely important to mark spoilers so that the book is not ruined for someone who is not as far along as others!!!


Mark spoilers by placing {spoiler} before the text and {/spoiler} after the text but use the < and > instead of the { and }.


Happy Buddy Reading!


L Y N N (book_music_lvr) I'm so excited about this one! Anxious to see whether I like it or not...


Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 985 comments My library app is saying 4 weeks still so it will be towards the end of the month! I've had it on hold for over 6 months!!!!


L Y N N (book_music_lvr) I am finishing up some July reads...and I will lose a ton of reading time this next week since I must return to the office. Ugh! Hope to read it next weekend (August 8-9).


L Y N N (book_music_lvr) Read the first 10 pages or so and I am hooked! Hope to make progress this next week.


Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 985 comments Glad you are liking it! I'm still waiting


L Y N N (book_music_lvr) At 26 pages I am hoping this doesn't prove to be a depressing read... Hoping to make more progress tonight. :)


L Y N N (book_music_lvr) I really like Moyes' writing style and enjoyed this book. It was realistic, IMO, rather than being all fun and upbeat, but it made for an excellent depiction of a (view spoiler) I have a copy of After You on hold at my favorite used bookstore that I'll pick up next weekend. Anxious to read it! I love Lou and I love Will.


Joan Barnett | 1007 comments This is still one of my favorite books. I read it pretty quickly back in 2016. There are three books in this series. I didn't really enjoy After You so much but the last one Still Me was pretty good.

I've been searching for a romance book as good as this one for awhile.

I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did!


Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 985 comments 67% I'm right at the part where she tried to go in the maze again but is calling for Will's help.

It's super good, sad yes, but super good and the writing is really well done. They feel like real people not just characters


Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 985 comments Man it was heart-wrenching. But also beautiful. I gave it 5 stars.

I have too many other buddy reads and books scheduled for next month but let me know how the second one is Lynn. I may continue but I'm sad about the ending so it may take me time to continue the series

I have a copy of After You and plan to read it in either September or October.


Ruthie (ruthieram_reads) | 985 comments Great! send me a PM when you finish it so I know how it is!
