Me Before You is my favorite romance(浪漫)novel by British writer Jojo Moyes. It tells the story of Louisa Clark and William Traynor (known as Will). At the end of the book, Will dies and leaves Louisa a lot of money. What happens next?You can find out in the book's sequel(续集)After You.
Will wants Louisa to use the money to live her life happily and richly—to travel, discover new chances and continue her education. However, Louisa is too sad and finds it difficult to forget Will. Louisa now works at a bar in an airport, watching people fly to amazing places. Her boss is really unfriendly and she lives in an apartment that doesn't feel like home.
However, all of this is about to change. One night, Louisa meets a girl at her doorstep(门阶). She tells Louisa where she is and Louisa can't believe her cars. If she closes the door, her life will stay the same. If she opens the door, she will accept challenges and become the woman Will wanted her to be. Which will she choose?You'll have to find out the answer for yourself.
Jojo Moyes wrote After You because she wanted to give her characters from Me Before You a future. Her use of language is as descriptive(描写性的)and powerful as that in Me Before
You. One special quote(引文), "Because me being here sort of means you're still here", deeply touched me. I think this line is really emotional(有感染力的)and powerful.
