You are lovable no matter how you grieve. Essentially the narrative and healing.

I loved this books so much more than the first. I laughed, I sobbed, I screamed, I felt every emotion there is to feel while reading this incredible book. Beautifully written, completely relatable. I just can’t put into words how much I loved this book! If I could rate it more than 5 stars I would!

It was oddly comforting to step back into Louisa's world, despite the heartbreak of the first book. And there's certainly still plenty of heartbreak here. But what I really loved was how Moyes so brilliantly injects humour into the story. It breaks up the misery and never feels shoehorned in; it's just natural and kind of lovely.

There are some real surprises here (not least a completely hilarious, and touching, sub-plot between Louisa's parents), and a whole mess of drama. Like occasional edge-of-your-seat, is-this-still-a-romance drama. By which time I was so invested I just lapped it up.

I realised how much I had fallen in love with these characters when a small moment at the end made me laugh out loud and then weep with joy. It's a great progression from the first novel, with a lot more hope and maybe even happiness, and I can't wait to see how the trilogy ends.

Closer to a 4-star. Enjoyed listening, but it was pretty similar to the first book. Will continue with the trilogy.

A bit of a let down. I didn't feel Louisa's voice - I know the point of this book was that she lost her way, but I think it's unfair that she lost all her wit and confidence. I think the idea that her small town, low income life is shitty and she should have aspiration of "something better" and keep up with the Joneses (or Traynors, or Millers, or whatever) is a tired sentiment. And why is her family suddenly unloving, unsupportive, even to each other?  And
the invention of Lily just seemed too convenient, too desperate to make a plot related to the first book. I think this book was pigeon holed into making Will the greatest love of all time and that's not what I got from Me Before You. </Spoiler> Yeah, I just had so many problems with this one.

I thought this book was rather lovely. I absolutely loved the first book-this second one felt right. When someone goes through heartbreak (especially due to someone else dying), they become someone new. I thought the author did a fantastic job demonstration how Clark went through her grief. While this book wasn’t passionate, I felt that it was as it should be after Wills death. 
I loved Lily and her character.  I think it was really great for Clark and the rest of Wills family to experience her. I love Sams character, but I think he’s too good for Clark. And I hate that they are in a relationship.
