The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
A feel-good book guaranteed to lift your spirits.--The Washington Post A New York Times bestseller Winner of the Goodreads Choice Award for Fiction A Good Morning America Book Club PickBetween life and death there is a library, and within that library, the shelves go on forever. Every book provides a chance to try another life you could have lived. To see how things would be if you had made other choices . . . Would you have done anything different, if you had the chance to undo your regrets? A dazzling novel about all the choices that go into a life well lived, from the internationally bestselling author of Reasons to Stay Alive and How To Stop Time. Somewhere out beyond the edge of the universe there is a library that contains an infinite number of books, each one the story of another reality. One tells the story of your life as it is, along with another book for the other life you could have lived if you had made a different choice at any point in your life. While we all wonder how our lives might have been, what if you had the chance to go to the library and see for yourself? Would any of these other lives truly be better? In The Midnight Library, Matt Haig's enchanting new novel, Nora Seed finds herself faced with this decision. Faced with the possibility of changing her life for a new one, following a different career, undoing old breakups, realizing her dreams of becoming a glaciologist; she must search within herself as she travels through the Midnight Library to decide what is truly fulfilling in life, and what makes it worth living in the first place.
Matt Haig is the author of two adult novels, The Dead Fathers Club and The Last Family in England. Reviewers have called his writing totally engrossing, touching, quirky and macabre, a comic tour de force, and so surprising and strange that it vaults into a realm all of its own. Samuel Blink and the Forbidden Forest is his first novel for young readers. He lives in the UK.
Matt has been visiting Norway to stay with his relatives since he was six years old, when he had his first taste of reindeer soup. He's now a vegetarian. When he was eleven he got lost in a forest because his dad took the wrong map. These days, he spends his spare time reading, horse riding, traveling to new places and writing silly poems. His favorite pixie word is mudfungle. Visit him at www.samuelblink.com.
