Louisa Clark lands in New York, and the third book of Jojo Moyes's Me Before You sequence follows her through a city that measures people by wealth and connections.
The novel tracks Louisa's work for a well-off family, the friendships she builds far from home, and the choices that pull her between the life she left behind and the one she is slowly assembling. Moyes keeps comedy and grief close together, writing about independence, loyalty and self-knowledge through a narrator whose voice carries the whole story.
A few specifics:
• Third title in the Me Before You trilogy, readable on its own
• Contemporary romance with a strong comic register
• Set largely in New York City and its wealthier households
• Themes of identity, ambition and belonging run throughout
Suited to book clubs, readers of women's fiction and anyone following Louisa's story to its end; the Penguin edition is stocked at Boipoka.
