Between life and death there is a library.
When Nora Seed finds herself in the Midnight Library, she has a chance to make things right. Up until now, her life has been full of misery and regret. She feels she has let everyone down, including herself. But things are about to change.
The books in the Midnight Library enable Nora to live as if she had done things differently. With the help of an old friend, she can now undo every one of her regrets as she tries to work out her perfect life. But things aren't always what she imagined they'd be, and soon her choices place the library and herself in extreme danger.
Before time runs out, she must answer the ultimate question: what is the best way to live?

feels like this was designed to be an easy read & emotionally soothing, but it lingers on the idea of suicide & regret without fully honoring the complexity of depression.
at times, it felt more dismissive than healing.
though the writing stays calm & hopeful, it could be a tough read if you‘re emotionally vulnerable.
Nonetheless, I love self-help fiction with a bit of magic realism #magicrealism #hopeful #audiobooks #bibliophile #librarybooks

uncommonlycozies ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars from me because the idea of the book will stick with me for a long time 2d

Of all the quotes from the greatest philosophical minds you‘ll find in this book, my favorite is what Matt Haig himself wrote: “ it is quite the revelation that the place you wanted to escape to is the exact place you escaped from. That the prison wasn‘t the place, but the perspective.”

I am so glad that @amandalewey recommended this book! I usually read murder mysteries and scary stories so this was a nice change of pace. It really made me stop and think about life and regrets and all of the things. Love! ❤️

This was a book with a very nice message for those with mental health issues. I only wish that it didn't come off preachy in points and didn't insist on “how things are now are okay, actually“ and you “should just work with that you have.“

The book definitely is not self aware to socioeconomic issues and how some people are just dealt better hands in life than others. White privilege exists.

Doppoetry Lots of scenes made me think of this song, from Twisted

“You've got to dream a little harder
When life won't go your way
Simply dream a little harder
Trust me when I say that when you
Dream a little harder
You're sure to follow through
'Cause if you're good and you're attractive
No need to be proactive
Good things will just happen to you!“ 7mo
