The Midnight Library by Matt HaigMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
If I were to name this book. I would call it 'Nora & and madness of multiverse' (yeah, I am marvel enthusiast). What a wonderful ride this book takes us on. Life, disappointments, despair, perception, perseverance, hope and tears are a few words you will encounter in the book. Some of the words will come with a meaning and mild taste while others will hit you hard on the thinking curve. The beauty of this book is the fact that it teaches you a very simple yet powerful lesson of life without letting you know. The story is basically revolving around Nora. Nora is - maybe ME or maybe YOU or maybe anyone/everyone. She represents the challenges we face everyday and how easily we give up on life.
I am still not sure why this book is categorized in Sci-fi genre? My be it can serve more meaning in the life lessons or self help shelves.
I already started my spiritual journey a while ago. If I had not started then probably this book would be the turning point for me to take that decision. I am not trying to say here in any way that this book falls under any spiritual spectrum however it does have a philosophical flavor that keeps you pondering on the smaller yet important aspects of life.
It is a must read for everyone. This is my first Matt Haig book. I am glad he has written more books.
And yes, the last few chapters. They are bomb. They helped me melt at the right time of my mental state and relieve a lot from within. Thank You Matt specially for that.
Don't wait, just get the book and start reading.
