Has anyone read Me Before You? I want to read it before seeing the movie but worried it might be like The Fault In Our Stars which was so sad!!

I have read the book and seen the movie. The movie follows the plot line pretty well. You will need tissues.

I just finished "The Mercy of the Sky: The story of a tornado by Holly Bailey. It's about the May 2013 tornado in Moore, OK. The first part of the book is largely about tornadoes in Oklahoma and the weather meteorologists which was interesting and the rest covered the tornado itself which hit some schools. Once I got about a third in, I couldn't put it down because I had to know what happened.

I am just finishing "The Light Between Oceans " by M. L. Steadman, which is just now coming out in a Movie . Has anyone seen it? It is quite an interesting book , telling a compelling story.

I have it now on my kindle.
My doctor asked me: "Does anyone in your family suffer from mental illness?" My answer:"No they all enjoy it immensely."

That type of story is not my cuppa so wont be reading it. The only recent adaptation that I read before the movie came out and I really liked was THE DUFF.
Anyway, I cant find anything to read recently so I actually read Andi's book . . . and it was even worse than described. It was pretty disgusting and pathetic.

I am pretty picky about what I read and found it easy going. Very little vulgarity, or sexy stuff, that I don't like.

Oh, you must have a high threshold for glum bc I heard it was morose and it sounds morose. I only watch tv/movies and read bks for fluff.

I just read "Hillbilly Elegy" which was a good non fiction about James Vance's life growing up in Appalachia and the culture there.
Then I read "Before the Fall" which was terrific.
Now I am onto "A Hero of Paris" by Alan Furst. He writes fiction set in Europe in the late 30s and early 40s. Great writing atmospheric settings that stay with you. This one is about the French Resistance.

Sue Grafton died last evening Thursday Dec 28th. I loved reading her Kinsey books. It was a cozy cup of cocoa for me. I will miss her.
I just finished Y last week. So sad. RIP Sue/Kinsey.
