I have read everything this woman has written, and yet every book is so different from the last one. The premise of this book is basically what would you do if you knew exactly when you would die. The way she tells the story though is so mesmerizing, I could not put down her writing style is just wonderful. I will read anything she writes.

Liane Moriarty never misses a beat and never fails me! This book talks about love, marriage, friends and family. It has twists and turns that you don't know how the author will go with it. Sometimes when I see the length of a novel, I tend to second guess myself. However, before even looking at the length, I said I must read it when I saw the author. This book had many characters and several point-of-view. Sometimes that can be a lot, but yet again the author won me over. What a wild ride (literally) with all the feels!

If this book taught me anything, it’s that I’d never want to know when or how I’m going to die! Here One Moment by Liane Moriarty is a gripping, fast-paced story that explores the weight of mortality and the choices we might make if we knew our end was near. It’s an intriguing page-turner that had me hooked from the start and left me reflecting on life in unexpected ways. I loved every bit of it and highly recommend it!

If you could find out how old you'd be when you died and how you died, would you want to know? What about if that decision was taken from you and someone thrust that knowledge upon you? This is the truth for everyone that was on the plane with the "death lady". The delays of the flight were bad enough but the passengers were confronted by the Death Lady who told most of that plane their cause of death and age of death. Most passengers were able to laugh and chalk it up to a crazy old lady and some take her very seriously and do everything in their power to fight their predicted fate. When a few of the passengers pass in their predicted way, the people on this flight and the death lady become a phenomenon that no one can ignore.

It took me a while to get into this book, but once I did- I ended up loving it. I will say that as a mother and empath, the hardest storyline in this book for me to follow was the mother who's infant was predicted to die at age 7 by drowning. That mother's grief, worry, and compulsion to change her son's fate felt so real to me. I enjoyed the way this story was told in multiple peoples points of view and how we got so much of Cherry aka Death Lady's backstory. Another great book by Liane Moriarty!

I have read every book from Liane Moriarty, and this book was so enjoyable. I started reading this as an eBook but had a really hard time getting into this book. It sat on my "shelf" for a few months and then when the book was released I was able to acquire a copy on Libby as an audiobook. I LOVED this as an audiobook. The two narrators were so captivating with the different characters they had to portray.
I recommend this book to any Liane Moriarty fan but also to anyone in general. I really enjoyed this read and I loved the ending. Enjoyable throughout.

This was so unique and different compared to the family dramas I am used to seeing from Moriarty, and honestly, this one worked really well. I enjoyed the different characters and how they all handled the news, it was very special and I really had a great time.

Liane Moriarty is special. I love the way she writes and I was hooked from the very beginning of this story.

A regular looking older lady boards a flight alone and next thing you know she’s up out of her seat, walking the aisle, pointing at people and predicting how and what age they will die. 😱 “Self harm, age 30.” “Workplace accident, age 43.” “Pancreatic cancer, age 64.” Is she a fortune teller? Is she having a mental health crisis? What is going on?!

As the story unfolds, we follow different passengers as they grapple with her predictions, as well as learn more about our mystery lady, whose name is Cherry. She basically tells us her life’s story in alternating chapters with the passengers, and I thought it was so well done. Cherry is hilarious, and has endured so much. It’s told like she’s speaking right to you, with lots of tangents and caveats and unnecessary information, but as a result you get to know her so so well. I loved her.

I don’t think this story will be for everyone; it’s long, and some won’t like the way it’s told. But I will remember this story of love, grief, family, struggles, and triumph for a long time. I wouldn’t feel right giving anything less than five stars. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Thank you Crown Publishing and NetGalley for the chance to read and review early!

I’ve read many books by Moriarty, and this one does not disappoint. I loved the storyline, message, and multiple characters. At first all the story lines get confusing but starts to be more clear halfway through. I love her writing style and the message of hope and optimism. Would recommend!

A flight from Hobart to Sydney was suppossed to be short, but the plane is delayed and everyone is upset. After the late takeoff a woman stands up in the aisle, points at each passenger and makes a prediction of their age of death and cause of death. People are confused, angry, and ambivalent. No one knows exactly what to think of the prediction, but then one person dies in the manner she predicted, then another, and the news starts to spread. The passengers work to come to terms with their own predictions and figure out the identity and veracity of the so-called Death Lady.

Here One Moment was a fun and beautiful ride through the lives of the various characters on the plane. Bouncing between the life store of the Death Lady and the passengers she predicted, including a mother told her child would die, a bride told her husband would kill her, a workaholic told he will die in a work accident, and a flight attendant told she would take her own life, the book moves quickly and was easy to read despite the large cast of chatacters. Moriarty crafts the various perspectives on death very well, with some characters taking very proactive approaches and some refusing to accept that they could die this year. It is touching and quite funny at times and overall I enjoyed it, even if I think the ending was a little too cute. It is not as thrilling as some of Moriarty's other books and it takes its time, but the characters were what made the book engaging and worth the longer read for me.

Thank you to Crown Publishing and NetGalley for a copy of Here One Moment in exchange for an honest review.

Liane Moriarty is one of my auto-read authors, so when I saw the premise of this new novel, I knew I had to get my hands on it. The concept of an airplane passenger foretelling the death causes and ages of other passengers should have been a riveting read, however, this one was not for me. I found it difficult to dodge back and forth between the multiple POVs, especially without chapter titles to help as a guide. Cherry's chapters were downright brutal to get through as they were rambling and vague for no reason. I found myself getting more into the story once people actually started dying according to the premonitions, but it was still a slough. I finished it for the sake of completion, but this was a miss for me.

Here One Moment was the return of what Liane Moriarty does best. The last couple books of hers were a miss for me but this one was great! The beginning was more difficult due to so many characters and their stories building but wow, by the middle I couldn't put it down! Such a great story and book. Kudos! Thanks to Net Galley and the publisher for the ARC.

Thank you NetGalley and to the publisher for the eARC. Wow I could not put this book down. I loved this book, the characters and how we got to take a deeper look at their lives after they get off that flight. I also really liked reading more about the death predictor, Cherry. Another great read from Liane Moriarty!

3.5 stars. I really liked the plot idea for this book., it was unique. But overall, I just never really captured my attention the way I wanted it to. I felt like the pacing was a little slow and I could easily set it down and not feel the need to come back until a few days later. In the end, it was good, just not one of my favorites.

This one took me a few chapters to get into, as we learned the back stories of the passengers on a plane affected by a lady walking down the aisle and predicting time and method of their deaths. We also then hear in detail about the flight, and then the back story of the "psychic's" life alternating with a different member of the flight and their life. It was a lot to keep straight, and I wasn't really invested into the story until about half-way through when the predictions started coming through. I did love the 2nd half, and ultimately how things came together towards the end. This is not my favorite book by Moriarty, but I did enjoy it in the end.

Can you evade fate? That is the ultimate question of this book. It was a fantastic read that had me questioning my own life and destiny. Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

My start with this book was rough. I couldn’t get into it and the many POVs were jarring. However, by the end I was 100% invested. I stayed up late to read and set an alarm on my day off to wake up and finish it.

The pace is slow, but it works for this book because there are many, many little breadcrumbs to pick up on. A faster pace would make the story lose its impact. Shocking, I know, that an author would know what they’re doing with their own story. Ha!

I loved the character development of what I’m calling the side cast. The main character (to me) had such a unique voice. Those chapter were my favorites by the end.

Overall, this is a 5/5 from me. What a perfect story. I think this would make an excellent book club pick and I can’t wait to recommend it. Thank you for the opportunity to read and review this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I loved this book! The premise was extremely unique.

I loved the different points of view in each chapter, five passengers and the elderly lady herself. Also the snippets of how her predictions affect each persons life and the people surrounding them.

Thank you so much to NetGalley, Crown Publishing, and Liane Moriarty for allowing me to review this amazing book. I am blown away! This is by far my new favorite book by this author. This is my favorite book of the year! I love how much the characters make you think and just everything about how the story plays out. I love the short chapters as well. Even though this is a thick novel, it is a very fast read that will stay with me for a very long time. I can’t recommend this book enough! Everyone should read this! Thank you again for allowing me to review a new favorite!

A unique and touching story, although is a bit drawn out with too many characters and storylines for me..

2.75 rounded up to a 3 for me.

I was disappointed in this one as Moriarity has always been a 4-5 star author for me, but I founf this one disappointing. The subject matter while not being the normal domestic storyline for her, it still seemed like it could be interesting to me personally as I like this particular trope.

That being said, while this book was surely readable and compelling enough to keep me from DNF'ing, it was mediocre and not what I've come to expect from Moriarity.
