At only 304 pages, I flew through this one, always interested to see what would happen to Nora next. I also loved the fact that Haig wrote super short chapters and a fairly concise book.

Then, The Midnight Library will definitely resonate with you. If you’ve ever felt like your life would have been better if only you had done… I’ll let you fill in the blank. Imagine being able to try on all the possibilities of your life if you’d just made a slightly different decision along the road and you have The Midnight Library. Regret that you didn’t date that cute coworker? There’s another reality where you did and now have two kids with him. Regret that you never went to college? There’s another reality where you did. This library specifically has an infinite number of realities of Nora Seed’s life. Unlike the first two novels mentioned, The Midnight Library sprinkles in a heavy dose of magical realism in the form of a library at the edge of the universe that contains an infinite amount of books, each with a different reality. In the vein of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine or Where’d You Go, Bernadette?, Matt Haig’s The Midnight Library takes a quirky main character, Nora Seed, dealing with some hard issues and places her in a unique situation.
