![]() "A feel-good book guaranteed to lift your spirits." -The Washington Post Winner of the Goodreads Choice Award for Fiction | A Good Morning America Book Club Pick | Independent (London) Ten Best Books of the Year The #1 New York Times bestselling WORLDWIDE phenomenon ![]() ![]() The Midnight Library is a story that leaves you feeling good, glad you read it. ![]() What if you could go back to that divergence in the road, go the other way? Nora is about to find out. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I – I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference. One of my favorite poems is Robert Frost’s The Road Not Taken. She can try to fix the choices she regrets. She can try them on, see if the choice she didn’t make would have been better, or worse. In this strange place, between life and death, a library is full of books with the lives Nora could have led if she made different choices. She takes steps to achieve that goal, but instead of finding herself dead, she arrives at The Midnight Library. She doesn’t want to let anyone else down anymore, least of all herself. When she is let go from her job and suffers a personal loss, it is just too much, the last straw. ![]() As a young girl her future was full of bright promise, by her mid thirties she is alone, working in a dead-end job and regretting the opportunities not seized, the people she let down. Nora Seed is in a bad way when the story opens. ![]()
