Thanks to all who participated in my giveaway, and special thanks to TLC and the publisher, for offering a copy of this book to one of my readers.  We bloggers are fortunate to be able to offer our readers so many wonderful book giveaways!  :)

  5. Reading Me Before You was definitely a book I missed when I finished it. Also, it was one of those rare books that literally made me cry. Yet, in a strange way, it was not hopeless. Only beautiful in a sad way.
