You Are Here by David Nicholls 345 pages

Cleo has organized a hike through England. She, her son, and friends Marnie, Michael, Tessa and Conrad are invited. Tessa can’t go, and Cleo, her son and Conrad leave the hike several days after it has begun. That leaves Marnie, a freelance copy editor who has been divorced for six years and Michael, a geology teacher who is newly separated from his wife, to finish the hike together.

Like David Nicholl’s One Day, You Are Here is a nice, predictable romantic comedy. The repartee is witty, the situations are never disastrous and all the characters are well meaning. A light, easy, but not simplistic, summer read.
