书籍介绍
Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and she knows she might not love her boyfriend Patrick. What Lou doesn't know is she's about to lose her job or that knowing what's coming is what keeps her sane.

精彩摘录
- "我不是要告诉你从高楼上跳下来，或者跟鲸鱼一起游泳之类的，而是要你勇敢的去生活。推动自己，别安于现状，充满骄傲地穿条纹裤——但要是你坚持要与某个荒唐的家伙安定下来，一定要确保把这玩意儿藏在某处。知道自己的人生仍然充满可能性是一件乐事，知道我可以将这些给予你缓解了我的疼痛。"
- "His grey eyes were lined with exhaustion, or the effect of constant discomfort (Nathan said he was rarely comfortable). They bore the hollow look of someone who was always a few steps removed from the world around him. And as the days went by and I realized that his condition was not just a matter o"
- "They say you only really appreciate a garden once you reach a certain age, and I suppose there is a truth in that. It’s probably something to do with the great circle of life. There seems to be something miraculous about seeing the relentless optimism of new growth after the bleakness of winter, a k"
- "There have even been times when it was, frankly, a pain. There is nothing more disappointing than creating a new border only to see it fail to flourish, or to watch a row of beautiful alliums destroyed overnight by some slimy culprit. But even when I complained about the time, the effort involved in"
- "‘You’re too bright. Too interesting.’ He looked away from me. ‘You only get one life. It’s actually your duty to live it as fully as possible.’"
- "‘Yes. And I’m completely unembarrassed about telling you. I’d be doing night school. I’d be training as a seamstress or a fashion designer or whatever it is that taps into what you really love.’"
- "‘Well, there wasn’t much time left after work, but I tried to do something every day. I did rock climbing at an indoor centre, and squash, and I went to concerts, and tried new restaurants –’ ‘It’s easy to do those things if you have money,’ I protested. ‘And I went running. Yes, really,’ he said, a"
- "He could be happy, if surrounded by the right people, if allowed to be Will, instead of The Man in the Wheelchair, the list of symptoms, the object of pity. ‘Where did you find all this information?’ he said, finally.

用户评论
原来玛丽苏可以这么写！！！高富帅又魅力非凡但是全身瘫痪的男主遇到了傻甜白女主，过了充满美好回忆异常丰富的六个月后，还是安乐死了！我喜欢作者对人生的意义的探讨。
“I worked out what would make me happy, and I worked out what I wanted to do, and I trained myself to do the job that would make those two things happen.”
看到最后will给clark写的信，我已经泪如雨下，哭得没法停下来，所幸房间里只有我一个人。要多少勇气才能让一个曾经最热爱生命的人选择放弃生命，离开心爱的人，要多强大的信念才能坚持走下去，带着永远无法忘记的伤痛，去过本来属于两个人的、更好的生活。
周六看了电影，周一开始看书，上下班路上，食堂排队，电梯里。。啊，今天终于看完！比电影更细腻逻辑更完整，对生命的探讨很好。不止是小言~推荐
I love you, and you are free. Just live well. Just live.
填充了我高三的最后两个月，是傍晚晚霞，是课后月光
N年前看完电影一直想读的小说，终于用kindle读完了。比起电影小说内容更加完整和细腻，作者的故事设计很巧妙，me before you是Will before Louisa更是Louisa before Will。各个人物不同的立场决定了不同的心理。如果只说这是一部爱情小说不免太简单化这本书了。
我好像对玛丽苏有了新的认识
这是今年最好的英文原版书，也是今年最戳中人心的电影。
薄荷阅读读的原版书！
