I chose to read this book because I saw the movie trailer and it has Sam Claflin (Finnick from The Hunger Games) and I just had to find more out about it. I don't really understand the want that I had. But, I have followed that want and my short review is below.

I must say that I was surprised at myself for crying when I was at the end of the novel. I found the novel to be enjoyable to read but also skipped a few paragraphs and didn't feel guilty for not going back to read it.

I must say that I was surprised at myself for crying when I was at the end of the novel. I found the novel to be enjoyable to read but also skipped a few paragraphs and didn't feel guilty for not going back to read it. I actually did not want to read it because I didn't think it would be necessary.

I am glad that I have read this book as I have not been exposed much to quadriplegics and how they live their lives. I found the book was somewhat informative about how they felt and what is required for them to live comfortably. I do feel that I could have learnt much, much more about them from this book if only more was included.

I wasn't surprised at how much of a health nut Patrick was. (view spoiler)
I found Lou's fashion style intriguing but felt like her personality could have been explored more. We don't really find out what she wants from her life but I suspect that we will in the next novel. (view spoiler)
I don't really have an opinion on Will. He never seemed like a genuine nice guy. I think he could have been one if he and Lou stayed together longer. I don't think that I could say that he is a memorable character. Time will tell. I think I will remember Lou's family more than Will.

I recommend you to read this book if you're curious about paraplegics, love romance and are looking for a quick read (maybe a two day read).

This books gutted me in every conceivable way. this book is not for the faint of heart and it is not your typical love story. proceed with caution and have a box or two of tissue at hand. I loved this book and hated it all at the same time. read it. you won't regret it. ...more
