Rights sold to Netflix for adaptation as a feature film • One of She Reads’ Best Books of the Year Diana O’Toole is perfectly on track. She will be married by thirty, done having kids by thirty-five, and move out to the New York City suburbs, all while climbing the professional ladder in the cutthroat art auction world. She’s an associate specialist at Sotheby’s now, but her boss has hinted at a promotion if she can close a deal with a high-profile client. She’s not engaged just yet, but she knows her boyfriend, Finn, a surgical resident, is about to propose on their romantic getaway to the Galápagos—days before her thirtieth birthday. Right on time. But then a virus that felt worlds away has appeared in the city, and on the eve of their departure, Finn breaks the news: It’s all hands on deck at the hospital. He has to stay behind. You should still go, he assures her, since it would be a shame for all of their nonrefundable trip to go to waste. And so, reluctantly, she goes. Almost immediately, Diana’s dream vacation goes awry. Her luggage is lost, the Wi-Fi is nearly nonexistent, and the hotel they’d booked is shut down due to the pandemic. In fact, the whole island is now under quarantine, and she is stranded until the borders reopen. Completely isolated, she must venture beyond her comfort zone. Slowly, she carves out a connection with a local family when a teenager with a secret opens up to Diana, despite her father’s suspicion of outsiders. In the Galápagos Islands, where Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection was formed, Diana finds herself examining her relationships, her choices, and herself—and wondering if when she goes home, she too will have evolved into someone completely different. This edition contains a short story, discussion questions, and an excerpt from Jodi Picoult’s next novel. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Dimensions | 5.45 x 0.83 x 8.24 inches | | Isbn 10 | 1984818430 | | Isbn 13 | 978-1984818430 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print Length | 400 pages | | Publication Date | June 14, 2022 | | Publisher | Ballantine Books | ## Images ![Wish You Were Here: A Novel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713QEnfk9oL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I wish I was there too.. just a few years earlier *by on Reviewed in the United States July 14, 2026* I never thought reading a book around the COVID years would make me happy.. but boy was I wrong. This book captures this love you only find in a book. One that makes everything around you perfect even though crap is hitting the fan. I'm going through my Jodi P. phase and I'm reading hey books and this one is up there with the top 5. Love the story telling and making me feel as though I'm there. Doing all the things I did during 2020. Asking all the same questions, and getting the same result.Now to book my flight to the Galápagos 😉 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wish you were here *by on Reviewed in the United States August 10, 2026* I like Jodi Picoult books for the slight oddness they can have. She makes things interesting. How clever in this story to take the covid Disaster and show how being in a coma can affect someone's entire life. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wish You Were Here *by on Reviewed in the United States August 24, 2025* Wish You Were Here is a beautifully written book with vivid descriptions that made me feel like I was right there in the scenes—or even watching a movie version unfold. The author did a wonderful job developing the characters, making them feel real and relatable.I found the storyline about COVID especially engaging. It was interesting to see the medical side of the pandemic portrayed in such detail. As an RN, I had chosen to stay home with my kids when their schools closed, so I didn’t experience the medical side of COVID firsthand until I later worked as a substitute nurse in our local school district. Reading this book gave me a deeper perspective on what was happening in that world during that time.I highly recommend this book—it’s not only well written, but it also offers a moving and thought-provoking look at life during COVID. ## Frequently Bought Together - Wish You Were Here: A Novel - Mad Honey: A GMA Book Club Pick: A Novel - Small Great Things: A Novel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/420333749-wish-you-were-here-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/420333749-wish-you-were-here-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-09-19*
