Unabridged Audiobook
I love the story, it just needs more depth into Will's perspective of the situation and feelings. The narrators were great, but needed a better break between people's chapters.
I loved this book, I was really hoping for a happy ending but knew I was grasping for straws! I think the narration and story telling was great! This was a very good representation of disabled patients and their care givers, I hate that he made the choice to die but understand that Lou couldn't change his mind. I knew that it was leading to a heartbreaking end but still held hope! Will recommend!
I liked the story line but Im a sucker for a happy ending, so I expected more. Narrator was very good.
Such a beautiful story. I felt so many different emotions while reading this. It will stick with me for a long time.
loved it
Really enjoyed it. Gave me a lot to think about.
I loved the narrator of this book!
I couldn’t put this book down! The characters were really well developed, and the story line was compelling. It was incredibly poignant as I had a younger brother who suffered a serious ranching accident 2 weeks before entering med school. He lived only a week, but even in that short week it was difficult to imagine life after. The narrator was outstanding!
Such a wonderful story, full of emotions and unforgettable feeling of love. Enjoyed every second of it.
Loved this book. Highly recommend it! I felt like I really knew the characters.
This book is absolutely amazing but the narrator isn't so lovely. She sounds too old for Lou and is very slow, I have to speed the reading up. Amazing book though.
Great narration, would have loved a little more something to the story, mystery, love,action? Kind of slow moving but still enjoyable.
Love story but with a bit more depth. Enjoyed the characters and the narration was done well
Predictable but cute. It was easy to listen to.
Heartwarming, witty yet thought provoking story. Loved it. Very good narrating.
Thought provoking - well narrated. Timely subject. Enjoyed the story.
Good story
I could not stop listening. I found myself laughing, smiling, crying, and living every moment with them. I highly recommend this book!!!
Great story, relatable and sweet.
Good Book. I felt it took a while to get through but overall the narration was great and story line was awesome.
Predictable, but good. I wish the readers voice matched the age of the main character.
Well, I found this book a little tiresome - seemed like it took a long time to get through. I thought the book raised a lot of interesting themes and was thought-provoking, somewhat. I only have a couple of minor quibbles. I had a hard time relating completely to Louisa. I wanted to smack her a couple of times for her inability to wake up and do the logical thing right in front of her. Second was the jumping-around of the narrators in the audio book specifically. I found it distracting. It took me out of the story trying to adjust to a new voice and their nuances for each character. The ending was good - kind of where you knew it was heading since earlier on. After I finished I watched the film and was completely thankful for having read the book first. Overall, a decent story. I'm not sure how long it will stay with me, but was a decent way to pass time.
An excellent book, and the narrator read it beautifully! I laughed and cried. I can't wait to start the next book.
Absolutely loved this book!! Started a little slow but then had me counting the hours until I could listen to more.
I loved the thought-provoking story. The narration was superb!
This is a thought provoking love story. I enjoyed it very much. The narration was fantastic.
So amazing read it after I watched the movie could read it again
Loved, thought it was one of the better books I've read In a while.
Amazing love this book so heart breaking but loving it
So relevant. So impowering. So thought provoking. Healing and wounding and humanizing this trip we travel . I wanted to be young again and smart enough to know that miracles are made not prayed . And wise enough to realize heaven is now. And we always will find what we're looking for. Great read.
I enjoyed both the book and the narration! Very well written and engrossing topic!
Excellent book! Listened to the book while traveling. Great narration and story flow. Would definitely recommend. I'm now reading the second book in the series which is also wonderful.
Its an amazing book, very well written and different. I enjoyed it more than I though I would. Can't wait to read the next book.
What a wonderful book! Loved the narrators. The building of the characters was superb. I felt like I knew each one personally. I cried a bucket-full at the ending.
I liked the book but was hoping for a different ending. I won't go into detail as I don't want to give it away. It was the perfect book for a long car ride and kept the time moving.
Awesome narration! Loved listening to this voice! Didn't even want to fall asleep!
Loved this book!! It was wonderful couldn't stop listening!!
Beautifully written and a joy to listen to, didn't want it to end!
Wonderful story. Certainly reminds us to live each day to the fullest and with sincere gratitude.
Such a wonderful story. I loved the caregiver point of view being a physical therapy student.
Such a moving and beautiful book! Loved it! Now off to watch the movie.
Very boring. Lost our place and couldn't follow story line. Sorry
What's not to love!!! It is a fantastic story! The narration is great! I was unable to stop listening at times.
I loved this book! I laughed, I cried, and everything in between. It's a great story that offers a different perspective on the toes on love we have.
The author has an amazing voice in this story. I loved the book.
Great book! I enjoyed listening to the narrator. It was engaging and emotional.
I absolutely loved this book it kept my attention through out the whole time!! I had a hard time turning it off to do anything for my family LOL! And couldn't wait to turn it back on!
I loved this book. The characters and the story line was outstanding !
This was the first book in a long time that kept my attention. I was wanting to sit down and listen to it, anxious to know what happens. Now I will go and see the movie!
This is the first book I've finished in 10 years. At first I thought the accent would drive me crazy, but I actually got used to it! I loved hearing the different characters voices as well.
I like it because it kept my attention. Sometimes I would catch myself coming to hault as I was walking so I could focus more intently. Can't even image what other people watching me might of been thinking of me. But, this was my first novel. Good narrator I like the voices.
Excellent first listen on Audiobooks! I loved the narration and the story moved along nicely. It was so enjoyable to listen to this story during my beach vacation. I've already downloaded my second audio book.
Absolutely LOVED this book!!!! Has all the feels...
I can't lie, I hated the ending. I thought it was a bit slow throughout.
Such a beautiful story, wonderful to listen to. I enjoyed every bit of it!
Just okay...Don't get the hype. Thought it was a bit slow.
It was truly a love story with meaning selflish love Goes to prove that someone can change your life with love. Awsome truly enjoyed
Very good read. Warning....have your tissues handy!
I'll be honest, it was a slow start for me. I wasn't too fond of the narrating but once I was invested in the story, the narrating grew on me. Good story and great perspective on a controversial subject.
Very good story! I can't stop listening. I watch the movie but the books is still recommended.
I don't really see what the hype was for this book. I personally didn't love it, I agree it was a nice book but it didn't make as big an impression on me as it seems to have made on many others.
Loved it had a hard time stopping listening. I liked how this book asked you to look at the situation from a different perspective.
Great book. Nothing like I expected. So many emotions felt throughout. Topic could be considered controversial but still excellently written.
Great Book! It was read a bit slow - I wish there was an option to speed it up a bit. Looking forward to the second book!
Loved it. Lost myself in the story. Really loved how she developed all the characters separately.
Enjoyed the book, a sensitive subject. I wasn't too keen on the narrating.
Beautifully written and narrated. Enjoyed it massively!
Book was terrific. Cried, laughed and got angry Didn't put down! Finished reading I one day.
This is a wonderful novel beautifully narrated! I would recommend it to anybody who is looking for a good listen. It is very vivid and vibrant.
This book was sooooo amazing. Cried like a baby!! The voice of the main character was excellent, wasn't to fond of the male voice for the Father but other then that it was a great story! Went and saw the movie! It was good but the book is definitely better! :)
Really great book!! Makes you look back and reflect on your life and wonder how you can live and make the most and best out of it.
I enjoyed this book very much. Had trouble turning it off, usually I just listen in my car. I would recommend this book to anyone.
What a great book to read/listen to. I hope the movie is just as great as the book.
Emotional story that touches the heart. Sensitive subject matter that made you put life in perspective.
Loved this book! The British narration was very enjoyable! The character development was rich and layered. My husband and I listened to this on a road trip and it made the time fly by. We will definetly be going to see the movie!
Absolutely wonderful story and narration. Loved it!
I enjoyed listening to the book, I hope the movie is just as good. I understood why the character Will felt he had to make his choice at the end.
I loved this book and could not stop listening. I can't wait to see the movie!
Great book and great narration. I was up all night listening!
Great Book, funny and sad!! I felt like It was not the ending I wanted, but it was a real understanding from Will's standpoint!!
Very well written, but what makes this one of my favorites is the fact that it's very well narrated. Love the fact that is has different voices for different characters. Also, the narration is well paced, pausing and modulating the sounds when appropriate. Absolutely love it!
Absolutely love this book. It was great from Beginning to end. I can't wait until the movie come out.
I fell in love with this book and could not stop listening! What a wonderful author and I can not wait to start the next one!
I absolutely loved the book. I did a lot of laughing and a lot of crying. The story touched my heart and the subject matter and the character roles were realistic. It did not end the way I expected to end but there was a deep understanding after digesting the subject matter.
I absolutely adored this book! It started off a bit slow and boring, but as the chapters ended I grow eager to hear more! This is not your typical love story and encourages you to accept that our happily-ever-afters do not always end the way that we want them too. I highly recommend this read!
To say that I loved this book would be an understatement. I couldn't wait wait for long drives in my car and hair washing days when I could just plug in my headphones and get to listen. Aside from the light profanity I would definitely recommend this book!
Great book. Ran slightly slow in a few places but very sweet story
I liked everything about this book, particularly the narrator.
I loved everything about it. True the narrators voice was a bit older than Lou...but I iced the book
I really enjoyed this book. It did make my heart hurt though. Well written and very descriptive by Jojo Moyes. Narrators did a fabulous job, thank you.. Highly recommended to anyone. Think I'll have to catch the next book.
Took a chapter or two to get into the book, but I was completely hooked! Narrators voice however didn't seem to fit the character I would recommend a paper copy rather than the audiobook because of it.
I was kind of bored the first couple of chapters, and the narrators' voice was a bit older sounding than I thought it should be, but once it got into the more interesting parts I really didn't mind. I loved this book, heart wrenching but so good. It's so much different than a regular love story. Also, I think there are underlying life lessons to it. Give it a read.
I saw the movie trailer for this and then learned it's based on book, so I had to check it out! This had me wanting to throw my head back and cry to the ceiling of my office... but then I'd look crazy :) I thoroughly enjoyed this! It really makes you see how life can be viewed from a quadriplegic and how their daily struggle can effect their loved ones. This was a very touching love story, with a fresh take on unconditional love. I was rooting for Will and Emilia the whole way the tough trials their hearts were put through. Definitely recommend this for a listen.
I really enjoyed it. It's a tough subject matter but I thought the author handled it well. The characters were pretty real. It's a depressing story but the main characters are witty and there's some humor woven in.
I wasn't sure when I started to read it, but I continued and I really like it,
Such a great story! The narrator was great with a slight change in her voice for each different character.
Just wasn't very interesting to me. I probably wouldn't have even finished it except that my book club assigned it.
A great story that was not typical at all. I loved it and the insight it gave the reader into a different world.
I loved this book, but I specially loved it after I ready the second one "After you"... If you are looking for a book that will give you another perspective about live, you have to read this one... You won't regret.
Best book!! I love everyone of the characters and can not wait till the movie too! Never wanted it to end!!
I am not one of those people who cry at books or movies, but this one got me! It makes you think about the controversial topic in a whole new light.
Great book! I was laughing, crying and then laughing again! I never wanted it to end.
Amazing story that will tug at many emotions! You will not want it to end--ever.
Good book and even if you do not agree with the outcome, it is very well written.
This book surprised me a number of times. I had no idea how it would all end.
I loved this book. Takes the reader through such a delicate controversial topic. Well written and great characters.
Lovely story of controversy...the characters were fascinating, the writing creative. Excellent tackle of a delicate subject...
Loved loved loved this book! Mislead by a job post Louisa initially meets Will with the impression of working together. Little does she know Will's disabilities would turn her into his daily caregiver. Louisa is a sassy young girl who although knows her place in the household is constantly pushing Will's limits not only physically but mentally. The ending was the only part I disagreed with and that was due to the fact I wanted it to keep going!!
