Nora Seed | The Midnight Library

Bazen kendimi Nora gibi hissediyorum ama Gece Yarısı Kütüphanesi okumadıysanız anlayamazsınız.
The midnight library isn't a book about death.
It's a book about what it means to be alive . About the difference between being alive and living . About expectations , our own and other's. About what makes a person who they are and what makes a life a distinct one. A book about decisions , small one . A book I recommend. Genuinely.
With love ,

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.
"It's not what we look at that matters, it's what we see."
It can drive you insane, thinking of all the other lives we don't live.
