A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
A Good Morning America, FabFitFun, and Marie Claire Book Club Pick
“In Five Years is as clever as it is moving, the rare read-in-one-sitting novel you won’t forget.” —Chloe Benjamin, New York Times bestselling author of The Immortalists
Perfect for fans of Me Before You and One Day—a modern classic and powerful love story following an ambitious lawyer who experiences an astonishing vision that could change her life forever.
Where do you see yourself in five years?
Dannie Kohan lives her life by the numbers.
She is nothing like her lifelong best friend—the wild, whimsical, believes-in-fate Bella. Her meticulous planning seems to have paid off after she nails the most important job interview of her career and accepts her boyfriend’s marriage proposal in one fell swoop, falling asleep completely content.
But when she awakens, she’s suddenly in a different apartment, with a different ring on her finger, and beside a very different man. Dannie spends one hour exactly five years in the future before she wakes again in her own home on the brink of midnight—but it is one hour she cannot shake. In Five Years is an unforgettable love story, but it is not the one you’re expecting.

Interesting read about a woman who wakes up in a different life, only to realize it’s actually her life in the future.
In Five Years surprised me in the best way. I loved the twists and turns, but what stayed with me most was the emotional resonance beneath the plot. The story captures moments of real, raw feeling without overdoing them, and the characters felt layered and human as the narrative unfolded. It’s the kind of book that lingers after you finish, not because of shock value, but because of how honestly it explores love, friendship, and the unpredictability of life.
Soooo not what I expected from the beginning to the ending.
A quick listen.
Lession of the story,
Love is unpredictable and surprising.
