Dannie Kohan has her life planned out and her 5-year plan is headed straight in the direction it should be going: She just got a very important job and her boyfriend proposed to her. She goes to bed very happy. But then she wakes up in a different apartment with a different ring on her finger, and a different man in the picture! And what’s shocking is that it is the same night but five years in the future! After an hour she awakes again back in 2020, but she can’t get this dream out of her head as it did not seem like a dream. She made a note of everything and then moves on with life… until four and a half years later Dannie still isn’t married and she meets the man from her long-ago dream/vision/ what was that she experienced!?!?!?After meeting said man, Dannie becomes determined to keep her vision from becoming reality. But life has its own plan for Dannie and those around her.
Wow, don’t let the book description fool you, the ‘time travel’ element is an important part of the novel, but this story is about love and friendship. And it becomes heart-breakingly apparent where this novel will go. And the reader better get ready for a roller coaster of emotions that they will feel and possibly cry or at least tear up for.
If you are afraid that In Five Years will be a cheating/ love triangle romance story, it is not. It explores fate, life, friendship and romantic partnerships that leave you thinking about long after you have finished the novel. This emotional journey will let the readers know who is important to them by the end of reading, and they might just want to reach out to someone after reading this one.
In Five Years is one every reader should read.
