About The Book:


From the #1 New York Times bestselling author Jojo Moyes, a new book featuring her iconic heroine of Me Before You and After You, Louisa Clark

Louisa Clark arrives in New York ready to start a new life, confident that she can embrace this new adventure and keep her relationship with Ambulance Sam alive across several thousand miles. She steps into the world of the superrich, working for Leonard Gopnik and his much younger second wife, Agnes. Lou is determined to get the most out of the experience and throws herself into her new job and New York life. 

As she begins to mix in New York high society, Lou meets Joshua Ryan, a man who brings with him a whisper of her past. Before long, Lou finds herself torn between Fifth Avenue where she works and the treasure-filled vintage clothing store where she actually feels at home. And when matters come to a head, she has to ask herself: Who is Louisa Clark? And how do you reconcile a heart that lives in two places?

Funny, romantic, and poignant, Still Me follows Lou as she navigates how to stay true to herself, while pushing to live boldly in her brave new world.



Praise:


“Louisa is the perfect mix of daffy and brilliant, a sartorial risk-taker…Readers of Sophie Kinsella and Graeme Simsion’s The Rosie Project…will want to start at the beginning. HIGH-DEMAND BACKSTORY…and a cliffhanger ending in After You—will ensure that Moyes fans will be clamoring for the return of Louisa Clark.”
—Booklist, Starred Review

“Jojo’s work never fails to bring a smile to my face with her honesty, humor and empathy about what it is to be human—[Still Me is] a must read!”
—Emilia Clarke



My Review:

Still Me (Me Before You, #3)Still Me by Jojo Moyes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Still Me by Jojo Moyes is the third book in her series, Me Before You .

We pick up Louisa's story after she has accepted the New York job offer. Louisa and Sam have agreed to work on their relationship long distance. They have plans to email and video-chat. Visits planned for long weekends. They can do this. They both promised to try.

Louisa's life working for the Gopnik family is busy, complicated, she must support the new Mrs. Gopnik out in society as best she can while maintaining a distance of employee/employer relationship.

Confident that everything at home is worked out, Lily is with Mrs. Traynor, Treena and Thom are living in her flat in London, Sam is just a phone call or text away. She can do this!

We follow Lou through her introduction to New York high society (as the help), see her compassion reach out and work it's magic on those around her, and . see her make the absolute most of what life has to offer her.

It isn't long before things take a downward turn but in true Lou Clark fashion we watch ehr handle it with a British stiff(~ish) upper lip and find the best solution for all involved.

I couldn't put this down, and absolutely devoured this third installment of Lou's story. Enjoy!
