I enjoyed it, I enjoyed the imaginative look at the space between life and death, and reading about Nora's exploration of regret and the paths not taken.  This book deals with suicide, depression, and grief so it can be heavy at times but I thought the author handled the subjects well and it was relatable. Who hasn't wondered 'What if'? when it comes to different choices and experiences in life?

It's been a while since I read it, and maybe it's just that I've struggled with suicidal ideation since I was a teenager, but this one got me. I really loved it.

An intriguing and well executed novel, The Midnight Library solidifies itself as a book I know I'll often think back to. A lovely combo of captivating fiction and inspiring, motivational fuel. I love a book that leaves me wanting to get up and do something after I finish it. Would recommend to anyone
