I just finished the Midnight Library and it was so Brilliantly beautiful.
Nora's journey of self discovery in finding out that she desperately wants to live, and see life unfold around her, is wonderful. The way Matt, the author, describes her feelings of despair to the then realisation of hope is lovely, and I feel that almost any human capable of feeling emotion will be able to relate to something within the pages of the Midnight Library, and be able to feel inspired by Nora's pursuit of life. I enjoyed the theme of regret being shown as something that is ultimately an unknown and never something we can rely on as it never a certain life truth. The Book of Regrets getting lighter and lighter to show Nora's growth, understanding and *perspective* of her root life was fantastic. Out of all the different lives she experienced she ultimately chose her root life and learned that her mundane root life was actually not mundane at all but a life to pursue, a life worth living and being alive in.
