Not my favourite "hopeful" book. 
It did'nt really show me a new perspective on using my strengths and not regretting the paths I didn't take, but it really wanted to.

Beautiful book. Lots of potential triggers so please check content warnings, but this was a great read about life and existence and what life means without getting stuffy.

I had heard nothing but good things about this book. I was hesitant with it at the start but I found myself wanting to continue. Much like the character in the book. I enjoyed it and the ending was very pleasant and unexpected. I would recommend this.

An intriguing and well executed novel, The Midnight Library solidifies itself as a book I know I'll often think back to. A lovely combo of captivating fiction and inspiring, motivational fuel. I love a book that leaves me wanting to get up and do something after I finish it. Would recommend to anyone
