Dannie Kohan has held true to her meticulously crafted five-year plan since she understood the concept. On the day that she nails the most important interview of her career and gets engaged to the perfect man, she's well on her way to fulfilling her life goals. But that night Dannie falls asleep and dreams of a night five years in the future where she's engaged to another man. It was just a dream, she tells herself when she wakes, but it felt so real... Determined to ignore the odd experience, she files it away in the back of her mind. That is, until five years later, when Dannie turns down a street and there, standing on the corner, is the man from her dream...

Thoughts

I read through this so quickly, it was absolutely fascinating. Our heroine finds herself getting a flash of what life will be in five years, after that inevitable job interview question, and the rest of the book is all about how and whether we get there. It’s moving and frustrating and crushing and beautiful in many different ways, and so well written that it just sweeps you along. A lovely read.

Rating: 4 / 5
