THE INSTANT #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

A Good Housekeeping "Book We're Most Looking Forward To" * An Independent Today "Best Fiction Books to Read" * A GQ Magazine (UK) "Best Book of 2024" * A Harper’s Bazaar (UK) "Best Novels to Read" * A Daily Record "Best Novel"

"Captivating [and] flawless...An affectingly hard-won romance. [Michael is] a sturdy and slyly amusing authority figure, … flailing amid the debris of a loving marriage gone sour. Marnie is a compulsively witty, winningly cranky near-agoraphobe...Both protagonists are prickly, smart and desperately yearning, but utterly guarded for understandably good reasons. Nicholls builds his own erotic and at times wrenchingly emotional suspense as the would-be lovers reveal past mishaps and surrendered dreams... As in the best romances, we cherish Michael’s and Marnie’s difficult personalities, and relish the unlikely process that might bring them together. The novel is sharp-tongued and irresistible."New York Times Book Review

"I finished this novel in two breathless sittings, as invested in its outcome as I would be in the happiness of a friend. This is the magic of You Are Here: warm, generous and funny, it invites readers into the world of Marnie and Michael with the promise that everyone is welcome, and that choosing happiness and being courageous in any small way we can is always possible. I loved this book."—Kaliane Bradley, author of The Ministry of Time

From the internationally bestselling and Booker Prize-longlisted author of One Day, one of the most enduring love stories of its generation, comes an uplifting and unputdownable love story about second chances.

Sometimes you need to get lost to find your way . . .

Michael is coming undone. Adrift after his wife's departure, he has begun taking himself on long, solitary walks across the English countryside. Becoming ever more reclusive, he’ll do anything to avoid his empty house.

Marnie, on the other hand, is stuck. Hiding alone in her London flat, she avoids old friends and any reminders of her rotten, selfish ex-husband. Curled up with a good book, she’s battling the long afternoons of a life that feels like it’s passing her by.

When a persistent mutual friend and some very unpredictable weather conspire to toss Michael and Marnie together on the most epic of ten-day hikes, neither of them can think of anything worse. Until, of course, they discover exactly what they’ve been looking for.

Michael and Marnie are on the precipice of a bright future . . . if they can survive the journey.

A hilarious, hopeful, and heartwarming love story—the novel beloved New York Times bestselling author David Nicholls calls “my funniest book yet”—You Are Here is a bittersweet and hopeful story of first encounters, second chances, and finding the way home.

Editorial Review

When the journey is the destination
In classic David Nicholls style, his new sure-to-be-bestseller deftly builds rich character and connection through conversation, an approach that's absolutely perfect for audio. Performed in alternating-ish chapters by the amazing Lydia Leonard and Lee Ingleby, You Are Here provides the listener a real fly-on-the-wall effect (or perhaps in this case, fly-on-the-rucksack). What differentiates this one from some of Nicholls's other hits, and especially One Day, is the vivid, reeling moment of midlife loneliness that the two protagonists, Marnie and Michael, find themselves mired in – a state remarkably relatable to anyone of a certain age, even the most touched out, partnered parent. Organized by geography, the stretch of land ahead paves the way for the mental meanderings that come with walking. You come to know – and care for – these characters deeply, and I daresay you'll be as sorry as I was when these two finally reach their destination. —Emily C., Audible Editor

This is a lovely book—sort of what I’d expected from the description—and I enjoyed the whole bloody thing. I’d probably even read it again in a year or so, but then I’m one of those people who actually read hiking books. My only query, and perhaps I’ve misremembered the mileage details, but I think it takes longer than 10 or 12 days to hike the Wainwright across Britain.

I loved it.

I was very excited to read another book by him but this was just okay… great narrator but the story was lacking.

Let down

First time author for me.

Several people get together for a walk across England, some part of the way, others the whole way. Some match making was being done by the organizer and a woman who was supposed to show didn't and a man who did show left early. So, the two left behind start to get to know each other and find they like each other, a lot. They end up walking together by themselves for several days of the walk and start telling each other about their lives. It turns out that's a great way to get to know someone intimately in a very short amount of time.

Not a thriller of any kind but rather a story of human nature, two people divorced and lonely coming out of their shells.

The writing style was pretty witty, and I found myself thinking a lot of the observations made in the book actually tied into my life. It was a fun, entertaining listen.

I’m not normally into romantic novels but this one is great - both characters are three dimensional and extremely likable.

Very likable characters, in turn touching and hilarious

the uncredited female performer was very good and sounded somewhat familiar.
The story line, while simple stayed interesting throughout.

Oh Smack!

The characters, their story, their building chemistry (pharmacy?- inside joke) builds slowly as they meander across the country. Never exhilarating but something catches and has you wanting more — of them, for them…and so we soldier on with them, and hope they will one day reach the sea.
Reminded me of Before Sunrise trilogy in how the honest discussions between two people can lead to more, but they first have to realize what’s the truth to themselves.

Slow build

I enjoyed this poignant story from beginning to end and found myself rooting for Marnie and Michael to succeed. Their internal dialogue was so relatable and their banter funny and charming. It was a joy to watch their characters' evolution from flawed and fearful to opening up their hearts enough to let each other in.. The narrators were perfect and gave life to the characters. I loved I'll be looking for other books by David Nichols

Romantic without being corny

I almost gave up on this. Might’ve been better if I had re-read the summary right before I started reading. I couldn’t quite figure out the point of it all until about 1/3 of the way through.

After that, I did get invested in the protagonists. And, it ended up being an interesting, compelling story.

Took a while to catch my interest

I miss Marnie and Michael already! The characters were so fleshed out and seemed to be people I would know in real life. This book is sweet, poignant, funny and aspirational. Already planning a UK hiking adventure in my head. Utterly fabulous, and a wonderful change from my typical psychological thriller/mystery genre. The narrators were perfect and only enhanced the story. I'd give this ten stars if I could. Bravo!

I'm so sad I finished!

I really enjoyed this book until the ending. Predicable. Boy meets girl. Boy hurts girl. Girl forgives boy. The end.

You are here …
