Nora’s life has been going from bad to worse. Then at the stroke of midnight on her last day on earth she finds herself transported to a library. There she is given the chance to undo her regrets and try out each of the other lives she might have lived. Which raises the ultimate question: with infinite choices, what is the best way to live?

Review of 'The Midnight Library' on 'Goodreads'

1 star

God awful read.

The plot is over-explained and dumbed down through the dialogue to the point where it’s painful to read. The entire story could have been summarised in a self-help/suicide prevention pamphlet, which would have spared me from the incessant attempts at gaining an emotional response.

0/5
I don’t believe in censoring books but this shouldn’t have been published.
