The Midnight Library – Matt Haig
£4.50
I was intrigued when numerous people had mentioned this book to me. With my free Audible credit, I downloaded the audio version and consumed the whole book on my morning daily walks over 7 days.
It’s a story about a 35-year-old lady called Nora’s whose life has been going from bad to worse. Then at the stroke of midnight on her last day on earth, she finds herself transported to a library. There she is given the chance to undo her regrets and try out each of the other lives she might have lived. Which raises the ultimate question: with infinite choices, what is the best way to live? It’s the sort of book that has lots of underlying messages and I think that everyone who reads it will take a different lesson from it.
