Me Before You - Jojo Moyes

A self-confessed "weepie" about the unlikely love story between a suicidal quadriplegic and his resolutely small-town carer, raising questions about what it means to live well and what makes life worth living. Her writing style is a bit lightweight - chatty, dialogue-heavy, and a little too reliant on stereotypical characters - but the subject matter is fascinating, the conclusion seems honest and moving, and I did feel tears well up twice...
