What an absolute incredible read; I was so engaged by this concept. This was my first experience reading a book with a sci-fi concept and I was blown away but it. The midnight library is a place where you are given opportunities to try out infinite variations of your own life! How cool is that? Weaved into the story are some really inspiring life lessons to take away from the issues that are explored. It made me reflect on the choices that I’ve made throughout my own life and consider whether I should even have regrets. For this reason, it was inspiring to read and although it delves into the darkness which is depression, Haig manages to make the story very honest and uplifting. I will be telling my friends and family to read this 📚
