I don't read self-help books. They really aren't for me. This was recommended to me and I wanted to give it a fair go as the premise really sounded very interesting. The midnight library is a place between life and death filled with books. The books are all the regrets we have from our life. The wish I could haves and the I shouldn't haves. 

It was a very interesting concept. But then the self-help book creeped in with quotes and references. Overall the book left me kinda feeling not the best. Like it would be great to be able to see how different choices could play out. I definitely would recommend reading this when in a good headspace.
