Tuesday Intros: Me Before You by Jojo Moyes



 posts the opening paragraph (maybe two) of a book
 she decided to read based on the opening paragraph (s).
 Feel free to grab the banner and play along!


My pick this week is, Me Before You by Jojo Moyes. I accepted this book last year as a "possible" review book for 2013 and after seeing a lot of positive thoughts about it, I think I will read it for sure!!



Prologue
2007
When he emerges from the bathroom she is awake, propped up against the pillows and flicking through the travel brochures that were beside his bed. She is wearing one of his T-shirts, and her long hair is tousled in a way that prompts reflexive thoughts of the previous night. He stands there, enjoying the brief flashback, rubbing the water from his hair with a towel.


Would you continue reading this one
 based on the opening paragraph?

  2. I haven't heard anything about this book, so all I know from the intro is sex and travel. That's enough for me. I'd keep going. Here's Mine

  8. Hmm it does sound kind of good and I love the cover! I'm not sure, though. Is it a romance? I'm not partial to romances.

  11. First of all I'd pick it up the book based on the title. I like it. Even though I can predict what's most likely to happen in this novel based on the first paragraph, I'd keep going. I love a good romance.

  16. I loved this book and I think you will too. But that first paragraph isn't really representative - what follows is less obvious and much more engaging.
