SUCH a beautiful book! It's amazing, irritating/frustrating how we can get the most damage by actually doing something safe, this is what happens to Will, he's crossing the road actually deciding not to risk riding his motorbike in the rain and then? he gets hit anyway!! 
 I know it's a cliche' and everyone else has probably said it, but this book made me cry-and laugh. Several times, each; often at the same time. I like how the author has written the book as a report actually, so you see from the point of view of Will's Mum and Dad and his other carer Nathan. I'm glad that I'm not the only one that thinks that this is definitely NOT a romance, yes they're a few bits, mainly in the last few chapters or so; but otherwise I think it's more looking at the bonding between the two characters- the carer and the "patient". You are made to understand the difficulty of someone whose life has completely changed from being active, a player and independent, to a quadriplegic; paralysed from about mid chest downwards plus arms, although he can slightly move one. And there's a difficult debate/argument in this book, whether to go on living in that state, dependent on those around, unable to enjoy life's little things anymore as they've just been made a challenge or to end it. I understood both sides, I can't imagine what it would be like to have your life changed so dramatically; on the online website with other quadriplegics where the main character, Louisa looks for activities to do with Will there's a guy Ritchie and he says: 
 "I love my life, even if I wish it was different...It's tiring this life, tiring in a way the AB can never truly understand." AB stands for able bodied. It's defintely a must-read, truly beautiful, talks about living the day, taking opportunities, widening horizons, friendship, love, and changing perspective too. 
 Oh but one thing that I didn't like was the scene where there are Jehovah's Witnesses, I found it funny how she actually included them, however she didn't give the right information. First of all I would hope that no jehovah's Witness would dare to still shout to a person through the letter box after they've just shut the door on them or tell them that they should undertand because they're disabled, secondly Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe in the after life.
