There are many groups that get mentioned when talking under-representation or poor representation in films and television. Race, gender and the lgbtq. But there is one that never gets a mention in the mainstream; the disabled.

I haven't seen the movie yet so I can't profess to have a fully informed opinion beyond the reviews I have read online, but Me Before You does not look like the best representation of the disabled.

Maybe I'll go further into detail later on this movie on the issues I have with it, but I can't get my thoughts together and I think I should see the movie first.

Oh no, it's fine. I'll tell you what, if you don't mind waiting a bit, I plan on writing about my thoughts on Me Before You in a proper post. hopefully I can have it up by tomorrow afternoon.

And thank you for the book rec, I had never heard of it before.
