Still Me: Discover the love story that captured 21 million hearts

Product Information

Another prominent theme in Still Me is the struggle for women to “have it all.” Louisa finds herself between the pull of New York high society and her life in England; Margot De Witt was torn between her fashion career and family life; Agnes struggled to maintain her old friendships after marrying into wealth. Why is a woman’s unique balance to play many roles in life while staying true to herself important to discuss? The following version of this book was used to create this study guide: Moyes, Jojo. Still Me. Pamela Dorman Books, 2018. I loved that part, especially. It was nice seeing her embracing her real identity and staying true to herself. What's even more exciting was seeing Sam stands by her side all this time, I was obsessed with the letters! For Lou however, moving to New York has brought about lots of challenges. Lou has to leave Sam - her new boyfriend and though they agreed to try a long distance relationship - it turns out to be quite the bumpy ride, but then with Louisa, you’d expect nothing less. While in New York, Louisa meets someone, a man who reminds her of her Will and it throws Louisa for a loop, and when Sam sees him, it throws him for one too. In a couple of your books, including Still Me , you created dogs that, much like your human characters, have distinct personalities and quirks.

I enjoyed the first two books in the 'Me Before You' series, then I won the third one, Still Me, by Jojo Moyes, in a Goodreads Giveaway. I was quite excited and nervous, as I adored the first book but thought the second was just decent/good. I am very glad to say this third one is much closer to the first!

This is mainly because it is unique to watch how natural surrounding unfolds. She is an emotional writer and in most cases, she says she cries whenever she has finished writing a novel. According to her, if she does not cry or is not emotional about a character or a novel then the work would probably be below par. Movie and awards Jojo Moyes has won the romantic novelist association award two times.When I finished this novel, I didn’t want to review it: I wanted to reread it. . . . An affair to remember.” — The New York Times Book Review If you haven’t read or watched Me Before You, and know the premise of After You, there are spoilers ahead about those two books. I’ll save the important details for you to read for Still Me: The Story of Still Me by JoJo Moyes Writing and being part of the filming of Me Before You was, without doubt, the best—and most challenging—experience of my professional life. I was on the steepest learning curve and I worked flat out for months. But I loved the cast and crew and the director, producers and I are still good friends, so it never really felt like work. Of course a long distance relationship is a challenge and not as easy as it seems. I could relate to that part so much because I used to have long distance relationships when I was younger, the last one of them actually turning out be my husband. *lol* Anyway, this part of the book was something familiar and something I understood, the rest of the book? Well, let’s say it kind of caught me off guard.

I think in this book it’s much less class than money. All good narratives thrive on tension, and if you push together rich and poor or upper and working class then you have built-in tension in your story. It’s a growing issue in society—the polarization of money and opportunity—and for most people, we will only ever have our noses pressed against the window. Why Jojo Moyes felt compelled to take a story as emotionally charged as Me Before You and drag it out to a trilogy, I’ll never understand. Was it a burning desire on her part to continue Louisa’s story that led to After You (book 2) or more of an opportunity to exploit the success of Me Before You? Is it possible Still Me (book 3) was viewed as a chance to right all of the squandered opportunities we suffered through in After You or again, more of a sales play? Either way, I won’t deny, this third installment was a much more enjoyable read than the prior. Although, arguably, unnecessary in the grand scheme of things. At the same time, Louisa grows close to Sam, the uncle of a member from her support group, and one of the paramedics responsible for saving her life after her accident. As their relationship deepens, Louisa faces a difficult choice when her friend Nathan offers her a job in the United States. Despite her burgeoning feelings for Sam, Louisa takes the interview and is accepted for the role, reflecting her ongoing struggle between personal contentment and professional growth. From the New York Times bestselling author of The Giver of Stars, discover the love story that captured over 20 million hearts in Me Before You , After You , and Still Me . Suzanna meets a friend called Jesse, and things in her life begin to unravel once again. She is able to find a closure about why she was abandoned by her stepmother Vivi. Jojo Moyes depicts her characters in a dramatic yet eventful way in which the reader can feel integrated in the characters life and enjoy the novel. In her novel, she is able to balance a reflection of life before and alleviates the feeling of self-pity.I don't think there needed to be a trilogy. I really don't. Let me start by saying I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED Me Before you. It literally blew me away. I read it twice and have seen the movie three times. I think it is Moyes Swan song. It doesn't get any better than that - which is why the two books which followed could not live up to their predecessor. Lou once promised someone special to her that she'd live boldly. But after rebuilding her life following crushing grief, she's finally gotten the courage to do just that, accepting a job working for an ultra-rich family in New York City. She leaves her family and her boyfriend behind and heads to America, ready to say yes to everything life has to offer her. For the first time since I had arrived in America I had an almost physical sense of being in the wrong place, as if I were being tugged by invisible cords to somewhere a million miles away." Reading Still Me is like catching up with an old friend. How did it feel to revisit the story of Lou Clark and some of the other familiar characters, such as Treena and Ambulance Sam?
