Jess represents every ordinary parent who's trying to do the best for her children and struggling to make ends meet. Despite her imperfections and failures, her resilience had me rooting for her throughout the story. Ed initially comes across as self-centered and superficial, which kept me from seeing any potential romance between these two. There are extremely hilarious moments as they contend with all the obstacles on the way to the math contest. There are also tough moments as the issues both face are realistic for their circumstances. Me Before You made Jojo Moyes a household name. If you've not read this heartbreaking love story, or if you've read it and loved it but don't know which is Jojo's books to read next, here's the Good Housekeeping guide to her best novels. You also get a detailed chapter by chapter breakdown and analysis of the events as they unfold along with a glossary of the important characters and terms used in the original book. Just in case that's not enough for you I've also included an analysis of each chapter, and quotes from the book that I found interesting. Moyes has mastered the art of likable, not terribly memorable, but far from simple-minded storytelling. This novel for me is like,reading the Attachments all over again because it did give me the same,exact reaction after reading this.Yeah,you'd think it was slow and boring but I guess real good novels starts like this in the first few chapters..don't you think so?

I loved all of the characters, but I could especially relate to Jess. There is kind of a universal understanding when you are a mom, that it's your job to be positive and make everything seem OK, even when it's not. It can actually be a lot of pressure to be the one who is never allowed to have a meltdown. My favorite thing about the road trip was seeing Ed, who started out being a little snobbish, end up feeling humbled by this mom who holds things together with a positive attitude, even though the world never seems to give her a break. Here is a picture from the film Me Before You, adapted from the novel by JoJo Moyes. I’m excited to see this movie, and maybe the follow-up too, called After You.The characters were done really well and the narrative style (in the third person omniscient) is very impressive. It’s every character’s perspective without actually having to read a particular character whine about his woes or brag about his accomplishments. Things were presented truthfully without sugarcoating stuff that are sad but without being mean at the same time. Gah! I just love the author’s writing style! It’s charming, funny, painful, sad but really hopeful too and worry not because nobody dies. Whoopee! Apart from that, the way the plots ended were too unrealistic. I was rolling my eyes so hard at how everything was fixing itself. Severe situations that were too dramatic by themselves miraculously being solved just with pure coincidences. It got out of hand, after a certain point. Life is not like that. I hope it was.

Sturges, Fiona (5 May 2023). "Someone Else's Shoes by Jojo Moyes audiobook review – a smart changing-places tale". The Guardian. ISSN 0261-3077 . Retrieved 26 June 2023. Do you support Jess’s decision to go into debt to pay for Norman’s hospital bills rather than put him to sleep? Ed’s life was fairly easy – until he let his judgment get clouded by an old college acquaintance who made him feel wanted again after his wife left him. Once Ed figured out he was shagging a real Stage 5 Clinger, he offered her a little bit of financial advice to get her out of his hair – only to find out that is what the pros call insider trading. Now he’s facing exorbitant fines and potential jail time – and he’s anything but optimistic. She is flat broke, works two full time minimum wage jobs but is always brimming with cheerful energy. En resumen: Este libro es hermoso, Jojo sabe mantenernos adictos a sus libros. Me gusta la profundidad de sus personajes y la trama. Creo que esta tan bien escrito (los que han leído a Jojo Moyes saben a lo que me refiero, su pluma es especial) hacia que me enfrascara tanto en el libro que durante el viaje en coche me sentí como si estuviera ahí, sentí que estaba a lado de Norman jajajaja.At what point in their journey does Ed begin to think less about himself and more about helping Tanzie and her family? Okay, at one point she does change her tune, but it seems way too abrupt. One minute (many many minutes, actually) she is refusing to stay in a hotel that the guy insists on paying for, and the next thing you know, she is sharing a room with him. We didn't get to hear her thoughts on why she suddenly changed her mind. Norman is in some ways the hero of the book. It must have been fun to write about him. Is he based on a particular pet you’ve had ?
