Product Information

I could see you didn’t like that bit. In fact, I think you had tears in your eyes you hated it so much.' I must tell you, the characters in this story are perfectly done. They're lovable, hatable, questionably insane - but all so wonderfully done that you never get bored. This story starts out with Lou Clark losing her job at The Buttered Bun tea shop and I could honestly really relate to the way she was feeling during that period, especially with the financial responsibility she held for her family. I’m glad she didn’t quit after her first day with Will. And that ending definitely crushed me even though I knew what was coming — it did not make it easier to read and experience. It hurts.

I realized I was afraid of living without him. How is it you have the right to destroy my life, I wanted to demand of him, but I’m not allowed a say in yours? We had a similar case in Spain. Ramon San Pedro was in the same conditions than Will and he did exactly the same and when I saw that on the news I was a teen but even then I understood him .

He was living a miserable life, he wasn't happy and he has the right to decide what to do with his life. So, no, dying wasn't the first time he made his own choice. What it was, was the last time he made any choice. It wasn't the accident that took away all of his choices, it was deciding to die. And that's not brave, let alone romantic. It completely blows my mind that there are people reviewing this who found that ending romantic - I'm not sure how romantic you would find it if the person you loved wanted to commit suicide... Well, Lou is trying to stop him from doing anything crazy and I really admire that she is the only person that hasnt lost faith on him.

And after a while, when Will realizes he cannot push her away like he did to everyone else, he accepts Lou for what she is. A kind person who through time reached to him and showed him that not everything is dark - that there are still choices and that life is worth living. Twenty-six-year-old Louisa Clark lives with her working-class family. Unambitious and with few qualifications, she feels constantly outshone by her younger sister, Treena, an outgoing single mother. Louisa, who helps support her family, loses her job at a local cafe when the cafe closes. Louisa is a 26 year old woman who has no motivation to do anything with her life until a man comes in and ~*~changes her~*~ The first thing you should know is it's very rare that I give a book one star because I can usually find SOMETHING enjoyable about it.Richardson, Valerie (3 June 2016).

My tears weren't the result of pain felt on behalf of poignant characters who had been brought to life by a talented writer. There is NOTHING about this book I can complain about. ANYTHING, NADA! I understood every single character, their POVs, even Will's dad. I would have love to read Will’s POV in at least one chapter but loved the book anyway.

P.S.: There's been some controversy about the story in connection with the release of the movie, and since I've discussed this a little in the comments, I thought I'd add a few notes into the body of the review as well - on why the message this story sends is so problematic. I started this book while on a plane to Hawaii and despite my happiness toward embarking on a vacation, I still cried. Good God, the emotions. If you can make it through this one without shedding a tear, hats off to you. I couldn't do it. The official music video for Avant toi, featuring Vitaa and Dadju, perfectly complements the emotional depth of the song. The visuals portray the heart-wrenching journey of love and loss, further enhancing the listeners’ connection to the lyrics. It is a must-watch for those wanting to delve deeper into the song’s meaning. 9. Are there any live performances of Avant toi? I will never, ever regret the things I've done.

Life is a wonderful thing, but then again, it can also be horrible and merciless. We have been told that we are the creators of our own fates. But what happens when the fate has different plans for you? Where fate rips everything you ever loved away from you?

While it’s challenging to capture the full essence of the song through translation, here’s an English interpretation of a few lines from Avant toi: But hopefully, you now feel sorry for me, horrified by analytical approach to reading-for-pleasure, and no longer want to tar and feather me for besmirching the honor of one of your best loved books. *crosses fingers* I will grown up and tell my wife/husband and my kids that this book changed the way I feel about love,life and everything for good.
