![]() ![]() ![]() The lives themselves are full of surprises and we were often on the edge of our seats trying to figure out what would come next! It was Nora’s character development, however, that stole the show for us. As Nora tries out all the different lives she could have lived (Olympic swimmer, rock star, landlady of a country pub, married to her ex etc), she feels frustrated that she can’t seem to find a life she wants to stay in but it was hope for the future rather than frustration at the present that shone through the novel. The book also focusses on one character and one plot, Nora and her life, which means there’s no danger of getting lost in subplots or trying to remember characters’ names (perfect for squinty-eyed evenings).Ībove all, The Midnight Library, is a book of comfort and hope. ![]() The Midnight Library captivated us in so many ways and the short, snappy chapters and no-nonsense prose made it one of the most engaging books we’ve read in a long time. If you’re looking for one of those unputdownable books that’s also an easy read, then you’re in the right place. ![]()
