Having read two of Haig's books now, I'm beginning to realize they might not be my cup of tea. While The Midnight Library has an intriguing premise, its execution falls short for me. The plot feels predictable, the pacing drags at times, and it seems to suffer from a sense of self-importance.

the end was predictable... which would have been fine if it didn't go on for so long. but it was a nice story to read

I'm gradually adding books I've read in 2021 to give a true reflection of the books I've read since keeping records.  In January 2021, I kick-started my reading journey having put reading on the  back burner whilst bringing up the children only reading when on holiday, having previously being an avid reader.  I really enjoyed this book, its a story of Nora, but self reflecting, the regrets we have in life, how things could be different, hope and second chances. An easy but wonderful read
