2000s: The third in the Me Before You series and the life of Lou Clark
Still Me
What you need to know before your trail
Lou Clark knows too many things . . .
She knows how many miles lie between her new home in New York and her new boyfriend Sam in London.
She knows her employer is a good man and she knows his wife is keeping a secret from him.
What Lou doesn’t know is she’s about to meet someone who’s going to turn her whole life upside down.
Because Josh will remind her so much of a man she used to know that it’ll hurt.
Lou won’t know what to do next, but she knows that whatever she chooses is going to change everything.

New York
New York is evoked in style – the green oasis of Central Park extended for what looks like miles,road sweepers humming and Lou is counting off the sights of the Big Apple and samples the delicacies of the city including a claggy, buttery muffin an and cup of New York coffee.
Gopnik Residence
Where Lou is to stay in town and the building has some history!
The Lavery was a scaled-down imitation of the Famous Dakota building …and was one of the oldest co-ops o the Upper East Side. No -one could buy or sell an apartment here without the approval of a board of residents who were staunchly resistant to change. While the glossy condominiums across the park housed the new money: Russian oligarchs, pop stars , Chinese steel magnates and tech billionaires wi…”
“New York might be awake but the Lavery was cloaked in a silence so dense it suggested communal doses of zopliclone”

Booktrailer Review
Susan: @thebooktrailer
I’ve loved other Jojo Moyes novels and this seems to be a fitting and lovely third book in the series! Me Before You was great as was After You and now Lou is off to America and to a new and no doubt fantabulous adventure. Now, it’s been a while since I’ve read books one and two, but as soon as I’d read only a few chapters , the charm, tone and warm heartedness of the characters jumped from the page.
Jojo’s writing is welcoming and even from just a sampler chapter, the sense of the story shone through. And I’m happy to say so did the location! I have to read the rest of this book as if the city of New York shines in such a short space of time, then I can’t wait for the adventure to unfold!
