We come from a story where Louisa falls in love with a man in a deep, soulful way, to a subsequent story where she falls in love with a man who she can hardly look at without drifting into sexual thoughts. And then there's the whole sexual thing going on with Sam, the paramedic.

She was void of the inner strength that pushed her to rise up to the challenge of Will Traynor, and his issues. Her state of grief took her to places that made me wonder if I was reading about the same person. It was more realistic in a raw and unpleasant way that certainly stirred the senses and in some ways debased Louisa. It was a happy ending of a bittersweet kind, but definitely a sweetness. Not all "happy endings" mean the girl rides off into the sunset with her handsome prince. And then, she was left with an enabling legacy, which just enhanced this almost fairy-tale like story that left you feeling okay with it all.

Through Will's life and death, Louisa grew, blossomed and let go of baggage that held her back from being the extraordinary person Will saw under her glittery facade. There was a lack of harshness that comes with reality, as it wasn't a realistic story. Me Before You, in spite of it's controversial topic, had a dreamy loveliness to it that almost overshadowed Will's "selfishness" to end his life regardless of how it would alter the lives of those he loved. I think I would have preferred the ambiguity of Louisa's life after Will's death as she walked away from the Parisian café, with the unusual legacy and challenge he'd left her to what evolved in 'After You'.

"I think we have it through the club, I think we have it through the team and we'll need it. "I hugely believe we've got a big resilience here," Moyes told reporters.
