Lin-Greenberg’s debut unfolds in a closing mall, where diverse lives intersect in unexpected ways. You Are Here explores community, identity, and the subtle ties that shape who we are.

Lin-Greenberg’s masterful and understated debut novel is an engrossing, character-driven story that will delight fans of Liane Moriarty and Celeste Ng. The story unfolds in a mall that is on the brink of closing. Readers meet divergent characters who don’t appear to share any connections, but their lives are intertwined in unexpected ways that are slowly revealed as the story progresses. At its heart, this is a story about our ties to and interactions with others and how our communities impact our actions, influence our aspirations, and shape our identities.

You Are Here by Karin Lin-Greenberg is available in print, ebook and eaudiobook formats.
