Liane Moriarty has done it again with this engaging story that really makes you consider what would happen if you were given your death date and reason how you died. How would you handle that? The way each character reacted and acted on that information was realistic with these very likeable characters. Will definitely be ordering and will be putting on our 'staff picks' wall.

This is a different read from what I am used to. It was very well written.

Six passengers board a plane. These six passengers have been predicted to die in the very near future. One of the passengers on the plane does die. Could the predictions be correct?

I loved how the story came together but I didn't care for some of the chapters and found myself struggling to finish it until about half way. The story is very long and I struggled at times. Although I did enjoy the ending. Give this one a try!

Thank you to NetGalley for this arc!!!

This was the 8th book I’ve read from Liane Moriarty. It once again confirmed that she is one of my “must read” authors. This is another 5 star read!

We begin the book with a plane full of people who are stressed due to a long delay. There is a woman roaming around the plane telling people how old they will be when they die, as well as their cause of death. That alone was enough to hook me!

We jump around to different characters with each chapter. I loved seeing how the story developed from so many different view points. This one kept me hooked from the very start!

Thank you to Crown Publishing and NetGalley for the advanced copy. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

This book was sooo freaking good! It was really difficult to put this book down. It was intense but not in a bad way. The story really makes you think and start wondering "what would I do?"

Liane Moriarty is so good at writing about serious topics with humour to lighten the mood a bit. One min you are on the verge of tears and before the tears fall she has you laughing.
This book is about a group of people on a plane who are told when and how they will die by an odd lady that boards the plane. No one even knows her, they call her "the death lady"
No one really takes her predictions seriously until one by one the passengers start to die exactly as predicted.

Liane Moriarty has a talent for creating very interesting characters that are entertaining. She also has a way of writing stories that keep you intrigued and invested, her books are incredibly difficult to put down. If you've read Liane Moriarty you know what I mean and if you are new to her writing, you will not be disappointed.

I really enjoyed the storyline of "Here One Moment" and hearing about each character's story. I sometimes got confused about who I was reading about. Overall, this was another excellent book by Liane Moriarty!

i really loved this one, love all of Liane's books and loved how she tied all the stories together. I've already recommended to my friends to pick up and buy! Hope to see this one on screen as well!

I have read each and every Moriarty book there is, and as usual she does not disappoint. How would you react if you were told the date and means of your death? Would you try to avoid situations in which you might die? Follow along as several characters in the book go about thier lives and try to ignore that impending death date... and is it even true?

Thanks NetGalley for the ARC of Here One Moment by Liane Moriarty
Loved it! I have wanted to read books by this author for a while now and received this ARC.  I was pretty excited.
The author is great with description and thinking outside the box. I loved the characters and their personalities and the plot was great. I enjoyed how the story was told in stages about different characters and how Cherry's story unfolded. I enjoyed the connections between some of the characters at the end of the novel. It was a longer novel at just over 500 pages, but it's packed full of detail.
I'm looking forward to reading more books by this author

I will always be a huge fan of Moriarty's storytelling... with this book it is no different. It kept me enthralled, wondering how paths would cross, how story lines were related and how eager to see it all come together. She weaves the best stories with the most unique plot lines rich with characters you end up loving in spite of themselves.

I’ve always enjoyed books that make you face your mortality and deeply think about the time you have left. The character driven nature of this story is one that won’t soon be forgotten.

Thank you to NetGalley for the advance copy of Here One Moment by Liane Moriarty in exchange for an honest review.

Cherry Lockwood goes into a hypnotic trance on a passenger jet and moves down the aisle, predicting the year and cause of death for all the passengers from very young to very old. When one and then another of her predictions come true, the worried passengers - and ultimately the media - begin a search for the so-called Death Lady.

Told in alternating chapters with Cherry’s story interspersed with those of several of her fellow passengers, Here One Moment explores the question of whether destiny can be changed.

This book had a promising start, but, at least for me, it ended up losing steam as the narrative went on and on (and on). I might have felt differently if the novel had been edited much more tightly, although I did appreciate the ending.

Not the author’s best work. Three stars.

This book was fabulous. I loved the characters and never felt bored at all throughout the book because the story unfolded in such a perfect way. This book will stay with you long after you close the final.

After a passenger on their flight announces people’s times and causes of death, and some of those predictions come true, will others change their paths to avoid their fate? And can they? Told from several passengers’ perspectives, including the supposed “Death lady”. I already can’t wait for someone to make this into a tv show!

This is my favorite book of Liane Moriarty's thus far.

This was incredible, easy to read, book following the lives of multiple different people that are somehow interconnected.

This book follows the passengers of a plane that all had an interaction with a woman who has claimed to know how and when they will die. The passengers are extremely intrigued by this woman... they think it is all a hoax... that is until the first person she predicts will die, dies.

I have been a big fan of Liane’s for years now, following her books & adaptations to screen, but this was unlike anything I’ve ever read before. This book did such an amazing job at emitting all different kinds of emotions while still keeping the reader guessing. The short chapters and multiple POVs were brilliant.

This book opened up my eyes to how to live life & the lack of control we truly have in it.

Also great representation of mental health disorders sprinkled throughout the book, which I love and appreciate.

Thank you netgalley for this ARC!

I was so happy to be chosen to receive an ARC of this book. I was looking forward to sitting outside with some iced coffee and fully losing myself in it.

That didn’t happen. This turned out to be an extremely long book with way too many POVs and a really disappointing ending.

I’ve read most of her books and this one didn’t live up to her usual standards. Too many different POV’s and Cherry’s story was written in a convoluted way. There were time jumps and to be honest, we didn’t need to know all of her story.

I’ll definitely read her next one, but this one just fell short for me.

Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC, all opinions are my own.

Thank you #Netgalley for the ARC.
If you knew when you were going to die would you change how you live your life? Liane takes the reader on a journey with several individuals. Interesting idea, comes together at the end. For me it was hard to keep track of all the characters and the timeline. If you enjoy Liane Moriarty books and her ability to create stories around a group of characters you will enjoy her newest book.

Liane Moriarty's "Here One Moment" is an engrossing and thought-provoking novel that captures the complexities of human relationships and the impact of fleeting moments on our lives. Known for her keen insight into everyday dynamics, Moriarty once again delivers a story that is both relatable and emotionally resonant.

The book centers around a seemingly ordinary event that ripples through the lives of several characters, each grappling with their own secrets and struggles. Moriarty’s ability to delve into the psyches of her characters is impressive, making them feel authentic and multidimensional. Their interactions are depicted with a delicate balance of humor, tension, and poignancy.

One of the standout features of "Here One Moment" is its exploration of themes like regret, forgiveness, and the passage of time. Moriarty's writing is sharp and engaging, with moments of profound insight that encourage readers to reflect on their own lives. The pacing is well-managed, maintaining a steady build-up of suspense and curiosity.

However, the novel isn't without its flaws. At times, the intertwining plotlines can feel a bit convoluted, and some resolutions may come across as overly convenient. Additionally, while most characters are well-developed, a few secondary ones could have benefited from more depth and nuance.

Despite these minor shortcomings, "Here One Moment" is a captivating read that will keep you hooked from beginning to end. Moriarty's talent for crafting compelling narratives with emotional weight shines through, making this book a worthy addition to her impressive repertoire.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me the chance to preview Here One Moment by Liana Moriarty. It took me a while to connect with this story, but I am so happy I stuck it out. I ended up falling in love with many of the characters and became highly invested in their individual journeys. I also shed a few tears at the end.

Sometimes stories with so many characters are tough to follow, but Moriarty is skilled at developing her characters and giving them unique voices. Each of her characters feels like a real person with flaws and complicated lives below the surface. You really get to know their interior selves as they navigate life after encountering "The Death Lady" on a fateful flight.

Overall, I highly recommend Here One Moment to anyone who enjoys character driven stories, particularly those with complex female characters.

Thank you to Crown Publishing for the gifted copy!

This book is an absolute masterpiece from page 1. I was immediately hooked and did not want to put it down. It is the highest of praise when I say this book did not feel <i>at all</i> like it was almost 500 pages.

Moriarty is back with a vengeance with Here One Moment, it is a master class in writing. This will be in my top 5 of 2024 without question. It will be on bookshelves in the US on September 10.

I really enjoy Liane Moriarty's stories. She captures the essences of her characters so beautifully, presenting quirks and foibles as part and parcel of what it means to be human and live in this complicated world. Add that to her knack for crafting original and clever plot lines that are familiar yet also just to the left of what you expect, and the result is wonderful entertainment that feels engaging and fresh and thoughtful at the same time. There's magic here, but it's not the magic you expect when you first start reading - and that, to me, is the most marvelous element of a Moriarty story. She tugs on your heartstrings, but not in predictable ways - and it's that very unpredictability that keeps me reading. The setup here is brilliant and so evocative, and the way it plays out takes you on a winding twisting path of never knowing quite what's coming next. It makes for a delightful read!
