I just finished "Me Before You" by Jojo Moyes... if you've read it, here's a universal-cyber hug to you. If you haven't, trust me when I say this: it does not matter who you are or what type of person you are-it will break you! It will, to the point where you'll lie in bed at 2 in the morning asking 'what is life?'
currently reading; "Paper Towns" by John Green it's good, but probably not as great as The fault in our stars-albeit that too I personally felt a little underwhelmed after reading. I guess I had too many expectations going into it.

I agree, it's not an easy book to read especially without Kleenex. You will definitely love it.

ah I couldn't read Me Before You again because of how many emotions it engulfed me in, the first time I read it. Having read the author's notes on the sensitivity of the topic and what her motives were, she did an exceptional job at writing the story. She never wanted to push the reader towards *possible spoilers ahead!* deciding whether to support euthanasia or not, she only wanted to show the different sides to the situation. when I came to the end of the book, i could safely say that I believed she did a good job of that because although my opinions on the subject didn't change, it certainly gave a great overview of the whole situation because she didn't leave us with feeling the need to decide our opinion on it. She didn't leave it open to debate but rather to empathy for everyone in that unfortunate situation.
