Reconstructing Amelia is the only one I have read out of those (so far; Me Before You is on my list) and I couldn't put it down.

I've only read Me before You and it's still haunting me... but in a good way.

This book will open the group up to a very long & healthy debate on "what would you do?" I think this is really my favorite book of all time, but I'm not sure if I could emotionally handle reading it again.

Me before you - LOVED it...still think about it sometimes...my sister read it...cousin read it...friend read it...neighbor read it...Chat Icon all at different times and all brought it up to tell me to read it. Read it!! Just finished "the girl she left behind" by the same author and while it gripped me and I wanted to keep reading it didn't grab me as much as me before you.
