Somewhere out beyond the edge of the universe there is a library that contains an infinite number of books, each one the story of another reality. One tells the story of your life as it is, along with another book for the other life you could have lived if you had made a different choice at any point in your life. While we all wonder how our lives might have been, what if you had the chance to go to the library and see for yourself? Would any of these other lives truly be better?

In The Midnight Library, Matt Haig's enchanting blockbuster novel, Nora Seed finds herself faced with this decision. Faced with the possibility of changing her life for a new one, following a different career, undoing old breakups, realizing her dreams of becoming a glaciologist; she must search within herself as she travels through the Midnight Library to decide what is truly fulfilling in life, and what makes it worth living in the first place.

This is it.

I’m always on the hunt for good books. Rarely do I find one. THIS IS IT. Stop browsing and read it. I feel like I have a new lease on life. Almost reactivated my Instagram just so I could share it on my story. Sent texts to every contact in my phone instead. My thumbs hurt from manically typing and my sister’s ears are probably bleeding because I’ve chirped at her “you have GOT to read this book” so many times.

get through the beginning, it's worth it

struggled with the beginning but appreciated dealing with the regrets. worth reading and contemplating life's choices.

Thought provoking!

Wouldn't it be great to see every version of yourself and choose the very best! This is the premise of this story. It inspires all the emotions: sadness, despair, regret, success, happiness. Be kind to yourself and read this.

Repetitive

Very repetitive message. “Life is what you want it to be”- over and over and over and over Whiney, and depressing. (Until the last chapter- then the tone is chipper)

An excellent read!

This book…this journey…will stay with me for a long time. I have a feeling I will be rereading over and over during the moments in my life when I feel stuck. It gives me infinite hope.
