Maybe in Another Life

Taylor Jenkins Reid

Hannah Martin, a rootless twenty-nine-year-old who has drifted through cities and jobs, moves back to Los Angeles and runs into her high school boyfriend Ethan on a night out with her best friend Gabby. The novel splits into two parallel storylines that follow what happens if Hannah goes home with Ethan versus if she leaves with Gabby, tracing how one small choice sends her life down very different paths. It's a character-driven exploration of fate, friendship, and whether love and happiness are inevitable or earned through the choices we make.
