Would I read a trilogy about Sam, Nisha and Jasmine? Yes.

Her minor characters - a tired, menopausal traffic cop Nisha’s fashion-obsessed son, who never liked that Marc Jacobs bag anyway - are cleverly drawn, and somehow all the ridiculousness pays off. She moves quickly from one character’s rock bottom to the next, nimbly zagging where a lesser storyteller might zig. After You is the sequel to Me Before You, which has sold more than five million copies worldwide and is currently being adapted for the big screen, with a major feature film due for release in 2016. Moyes’s intentions are clear: This is a novel about women of a certain age who suddenly find themselves invisible - to their spouses, to their colleagues, to the world - and find pleasure in being “seen” by each other.Įven if some of the final caper sequences have a Scooby Doo -like absurdity, Moyes has an incredible knack for minor plot twists, and there are a lot of them. We are delighted to announce that Jojo has a brand new book coming out this Autumn. Cleaning toilets is no fun, but at least Nisha meets Jasmine, a salt-of-the-earth fellow housekeeper who has her back when she needs it most. Unable to collect her finery or her passport, Nisha now needs cash, pronto, so Moyes sets her up with a job as hotel maid. William is the second main character of the movie and the book as well. Carl, his bodyguard and the hotel staff refuse to allow Nisha access to her room. The Traynor family was looking for a caregiver for their son William Traynor. When she returns to her hotel, she finds that her horrible husband, Carl, has iced her out and taken up with his assistant. (“It takes her a moment to grasp what she is looking at,” Moyes tells us.) But things are about to get much worse for Nisha. When she learns that Will has shocking plans of his own, she sets out to show him that life is still worth living.The rightful owner of the bag is Nisha Cantor, a wealthy, pampered second wife who is now saddled with a pair of “very tired, ugly, block-heeled” pumps.

Will is acerbic, moody, bossy-but Lou refuses to treat him with kid gloves, and soon his happiness means more to her than she expected. Will has always lived a huge life-big deals, extreme sports, worldwide travel-and now he’s pretty sure he cannot live the way he is. She takes a badly needed job working for ex–Master of the Universe Will Traynor, who is wheelchair bound after an accident. Louisa Clark is an ordinary girl living an exceedingly ordinary life-steady boyfriend, close family-who has never been farther afield than their tiny village. The (abridged) plot of Me Before You is this: A small town girl from the English countryside, Louisa, is fired from her job, and in a fit of desperation, becomes a caregiver for a handsome. They had nothing in common until love gave them everything to lose. Discover the love story that captured over 20 million hearts in Me Before You, After You, and Still Me.
