Still Me by Jojo Moyes

This is the third book in this series which began with Me Before You.  It is not a tear jerker, which is refreshing, but it is pretty much entirely modern romance.  Even though my spouse reads much of what I do, I returned this one to the library without putting it on his side of the bed. 
Louisa is back, and she is following in the foot steps of her hero and going to New York.  She is a paid companion for the much younger wife of a wealthy man.  She is trying to maintain a long distance love, which doesn't work out all that well.  She loves New York, but she runs into trouble both on the job and in her relationships.  However, as the feel good conclusion to this trilogy would have it, she finds a job where she is appreciated and also gives her a path to the next phase in her life.   I enjoyed this, and read it all in one day while traveling.  It is light and frothy but well written in an Emily Griffin kind of way, and not quite Curtis Sittenfeld material, but good.
