From this list I have only read Me Before You. I really enjoyed the book but I would definitely suggest reading something more fluffy and light right after it.

I've read Me Before You & Eleanor and Park. Both were good but I definitely preferred Me Before You.

I read Me Before You & Eleanor & Park - I thought they were both pretty good - E&P is a super quick read

I've read "Me Before You" and Family Pictures."

I liked both, but they are both kind of "heavy" subject matter.

That said, "Family Pictures" was a bit lighter in tone, more in a chic lit vein in terms of the author, writing style, etc. It's a faster read, I read it for vacation. I think "Me Before You" is a bit more literary pick, I read that one for my book club. "Me Before You" has more of a love story component whereas "Family Pictures" is a family drama, where interfamily dynamics are more the focus.

"All Fall Down" is on my list to read!

Well I finished Me before You and it was heavy for sure ! I think I am going to switch to Eleanor and Park tonight. I hope it is much much lighter !!! =)
