After completing his morning jog on New Years Day, Jonathan Grief finds a bag hanging on the handlebars of his bicycle. The bag contains a diary for the coming year with each page already filled in and the title page inscribed with "Your Perfect Year". Jonathan is intrigued but hopes to find the owner but after several diligent efforts to return the diary he decides to follow the suggestions on each page. The writer has left instructions on living a happy, fulfilling life by trying new things, visiting new places, seeing the positive in everyday situations with several specific dates and places mentioned. Jonathan only knows the diarist is someone known as "H". He and "H" will come close to meeting several times as Jonathan sees his life changing for the better every single day. Once the two finally come face to face Jonathan will be shocked by what "H" was trying to accomplish with the diary.
This was a charming story with two likeable characters driving the story. There are so many coincidences and close calls in the story that it is humorous at times but there is a very sad underlying storyline as well. It was a pleasant read.
