I spent much of The Midnight Library reflecting on my own life and the decisions I've made, as well as looking to the future and imagining the infinite possibilities-this is a sign of a talented author. While the concept is simple, it drew me in as a reader and encompassed so many different emotional experiences that come with life. Nora's emotions are deeply portrayed, and I was captivated by the depth of Haig's storytelling. This novel is very well-written and thought-provoking. Nora's exploration of herself is captivating as she attempts to discern what is really important in life.

She must decide what she is willing to sacrifice in order to live permanently in one of these 'ideal' lives, where they seem perfect for a time but, as she realizes, there are really new sets of challenges awaiting. While in the Midnight Library, Nora lives hundreds of lives and becomes hundreds of different versions of herself-some she'd never even fathomed-but she is faced with a difficult decision.

She finds herself in a place called the Midnight Library, which exists between life and death and is filled with books in which lie endless parallel lives she might've lived she is given the chance to undo her regrets by trying out these lives, starting right where her alternate self would've been on the night she ended her life. But the story doesn't end there-Nora gets a chance to experience various ways her life could've unfolded had she made slightly different choices. One night, her despair reaches a peak and she commits suicide. It is about a young woman named Nora Seed, who lives a monotonous, ordinary life and feels unwanted and unaccomplished. Matt Haig's unique novel The Midnight Library ponders the infinite possibilities of life.
