I was so excited to find In Five Years on the shelf at the library the day after it was published. I was going to splurge and purchase this one, I was that excited to read it. And, it proved to be as good as I thought it was going to be! Described as perfect for fans of Me Before You and One Fine Day, it certainly delivered and was just what I needed right now. I read it in about two hours. Amazon says it well: “When Type-A Manhattan lawyer Dannie…[nails] her interview and [accepts] her boyfriend’s marriage proposal, [she] goes to sleep knowing she is right on track to achieve her five-year plan. But when she wakes up, she’s suddenly in a different apartment, with a different ring on her finger, and beside a very different man. The television news is on in the background, and she can just make out the scrolling date. It’s the same night—December 15—but 2025, five years in the future.” I’ll leave it there. Grab it – it’s just the right kind of story to get your mind off what’s going on in the world.

I liked this one too. Good diversion.
