I love that most of my Book Club reads are interesting, entertaining, and thought-provoking. Today we discussed our June book – Here One Moment.
I've read a few Liane Moriarty books and they always have so many interesting twists. We all enjoyed this one, too.
Let me set the stage: Imagine being on an airplane and some random woman – whose mother was a self-proclaimed psychic – walks down the aisle and stops at your row of seats and tells you exactly when and how you are going to die. That's how the book starts.
And no matter how it all ends – no spoiler alerts here – we realize that even if we can't 100% fight fate, we don't have to accept it either. We can take action to increase the odds that certain things don't have to happen.
And in retrospect, realize we are living life to the fullest with no regrets. That's not always our mindset so I like when a book sort of kicks us in the backside to start thinking that way.
Of course that begs the question: Have any of YOU visited a psychic or medium? And what did you think about/act on based on what you heard?
I've never been interested in that, but after this book, I'm more open-minded... and wondering.
