Me Before You
From the starting pages where a horrific accident plays out, this book is a straightforward, engaging story of the late-blooming Lou and her downwardly mobile family and their intersection with Will, a vital, wealthy young man on the way up and his family. It involves the issues of growing up, taking personal responsibility for life and death and defining quality of a life well lived. It's easy to identify with various characters and their take on the central conflict that puts them odds with each other. This satisfying story and these characters provide an excellent example of how fiction can contribute to understanding. Recommended for book group discussion.

I think we share similar tastes in books, so I want to give this a try-not usually what I would have picked up, so thanks for the recommendation. Might suggest it for a neighborhood book discussion!
Her first book "Last Letter From Your Lover" was one of my favorites last year. This one will go on my to-read list.
