About This Book

“A riveting story so wild you don’t know how she’ll land it, and then she does, on a dime.”—Anne Lamott, #1 New York Times bestselling author If you knew your future, would you try to fight fate? Aside from a delay, there will be no problems. The flight will be smooth, it will land safely.

Everyone who gets on the plane will get off. But almost all of them will be forever changed. Because on this ordinary, short, domestic flight, something extraordinary happens.

People learn how and when they are going to die. For some, their death is far in the future—age 103!—and they laugh. But for six passengers, their predicted deaths are not far away at all.

How do they know this? There were ostensibly more interesting people on the flight (the bride and groom, the jittery, possibly famous woman, the giant Hemsworth-esque guy who looks like an off-duty superhero, the frazzled, gorgeous flight attendant) but none would become as famous as “The Death Lady.” Not a single passenger or crew member will later recall noticing her board the plane. She wasn’t exceptionally old or young, rude or polite.

She wasn’t drunk or nervous or pregnant. Her appearance and demeanor were unremarkable. But what she did on that flight was truly remarkable.

A few months later, one passenger dies exactly as she predicted. Then two more passengers die, again, as she said they would. Soon no one is thinking this is simply an entertaining story at a cocktail party.

If you were told you only had a certain amount of time left to live, would you do things differently? Would you try to dodge your destiny? Liane Moriarty’s Here One Moment is a brilliantly constructed tale that looks at free will and destiny, grief and love, and the endless struggle to maintain certainty and control in an uncertain world.

A modern-day Jane Austen who humorously skewers social mores while spinning a web of mystery, Moriarty asks profound questions in her newest I-can’t-wait-to-find-out-what-happens novel.

Boy this one is going to linger. I found myself in so many characters - OCD, borderline autism married to ADHD (if you know you know), young and optimistic getting a financial reality check, and more. The spiritual aspect of this reminds me of The Hypnotist’s Love Story. I greatly appreciated the take on how you can handle fate. There were many characters, yes, but it was written in a way that made them easy to follow. It ended kinda fast but not everything had a fully explained resolution, which was realistic to me. The underlying message of live everyday as if its your last, and some of the strategies for dealing with OCD, will stay with me for quite a while. Great return to form for Liane Moriarty.

Another Lianne Moriarty great story

Fun, life affirming, quick read. It was a bit confusing at times with too many characters and shifting POV, but still very enjoyable.

The “idea” of this book was great and the reviews pulled me in. I liked the book. I didn’t love it. And yet I gave it five stars. Why? I was so impressed with Liane Moriarty’s development of the characters, and how many important life lessons she managed to spell out. The main character, Cherry, was delightful, ordinary, and yet not at all ordinary, as none of us are ordinary. We each have a story, quirks, talents, and we live out our life in an ordinary way that in the end may seem extraordinary. That’s kind of how all of her characters seemed in the end, the sum total of this book was perhaps extraordinary. Thank you Liane Moriarty.

She’s done it again.

I love Liane’s books - but this one is as important as it is entertaining. A stranger on a plane predicts most of the passengers age and matter of death. For everyone it’s unnerving. When predictions come true that reminder of life’s fragility causes serious reexamination of how we spend our time and how we treat otters. It’s really good!

Love Liane Moriarty

Based on experience, I will like any Liane Moriarty book. My prediction was not wrong because once again she under-promises and over-delivers. I flew through the 500 pages in 3 days and plan to re-read it soon. Suffice to say she deals with a deep topic (what does it mean to face our mortality?) but does it in a wonderful, heartfelt, often hilarious way. My personal favorite parts of her books are the wry asides she builds in about the nature of work, careers, and family perceptions about careers. You can see her consulting background! Anyway, read this if you want a guaranteed delight that will keep you thinking. (Also, to the big algorithm out there: I wrote this ALL BY MYSELF without recourse to the amazon AI prompts. Literary Luddite here.)
