About this listen

 From the acclaimed author of Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo comes a breathtaking novel about a young woman whose fate hinges on the choice she makes after bumping into an old flame; in alternating chapters, we see two possible scenarios unfold—with stunningly different results

At the age of twenty-nine, Hannah Martin still has no idea what she wants to do with her life. She has lived in six different cities and held countless jobs since graduating college. On the heels of leaving another city, Hannah moves back to her hometown of Los Angeles and takes up residence with her best friend Gabby. Shortly after, Hannah goes out to a bar one night with Gabby and meets up with her high school boyfriend, Ethan.

Just after midnight, Gabby asks Hannah if she’s ready to go. A moment later, Ethan offers to give her a ride later if she wants to stay. Hannah hesitates. What happens if she leaves with Gabby? What happens if she leaves with Ethan?

In concurrent story lines, Hannah lives out the effects of each decision. Quickly, these parallel universes develop into radically different stories with large-scale consequences for Hannah, as well as the people around her. As the two alternate realities run their course, Maybe in Another Life raises questions about fate and true love: Is anything meant to be? Is there such a thing as a soul mate? Hannah believes there is. And, in both worlds, she’s found him.

I enjoyed the plot very much, the narration let it down a bit. The narration of the male characters was very poor, they all sounded like serial killers

Enjoyed this very much

the voice of reading made it unenjoyable to listen to. the story would make a decent series though.

Story has been overdone

Loved this so much. I have never read a book that was written from this perspective.

Great story

interesting ideas with funny moments. found narrators voices not distinctive between male characters which was occasionally confusing.

Good listen.

Another fabulous book. I've often wondered how life would have been different if the many little things in my life had turned out differently. This story does just that, with its timelines. And yet we are still basically the same person inspite of the different choices.

I listened to the audiobook and the narrator was brilliant! I would just have preferred if the chapter breaks were at the changing timelines and not as often as they were.

Another fabulous book for TJR
