4.5

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig is a book that truly changed me. As someone who continually struggles with depression, this novel resonated deeply, offering a perspective that was both eye-opening and hopeful. It beautifully explores the idea of regret, second chances, and the infinite paths a life can take, reminding readers that even in our darkest moments, there is always a possibility for change.

What stood out to me the most was how Haig captured the weight of depression while still crafting a narrative that felt uplifting rather than overwhelming. The concept of a library filled with alternate versions of one’s life was both intriguing and comforting—it made me reflect on my own choices and realize that life, even with its uncertainties, is still worth living.

The only minor issue I had was with the pacing; at times, certain sections felt a bit slow or repetitive. However, that didn’t take away from the overall impact of the story. This book is a must-read for anyone struggling with self-doubt or regret. It won’t magically fix everything, but it might just change the way you see your own life.

This book was a rollercoaster of emotion.
It didn't take the classic approach of sad to happy ever after, but a wave of deep depression to mediocre to happy to contentment to an attitude of inspiration to continue life and appreciate all the possibilities without allowing the past to ruin life.
INCREDIBLE BOOK
