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.

I don't normally go for stories like this so the change of pace was refreshing. Spent the first half itching to know how it was going to unfold and the second half slowly mourning the inevitable conclusion. Also it was such a minor part of the story but I loved the Mindy Kaling bit.
In Five Years was a heart-tugging story about love, friendship & taking the sourest lemon life has to offer & being able to turn it into something resembling lemonade. (yes, that was a this is us reference bc it fit perfectly
This book will stay with me for a while. It presents itself as an interesting twist on life - someone who has a definitive life plan set out for them gets a glimpse into the future. The story takes twists and turns with characters that you come to know and cheer for. Themes of friendship, true love, family, and more make this a great read that I highly recommend.
