Midnight Library: TikTok Made Me Buy It! [Paperback] Haig, Matt

Between life and death, Nora Seed finds herself in a library where every book is a different version of her life — the one where she became an Olympic swimmer, the glaciologist, the rock star, the wife. Each volume offers a chance to undo a regret, to see what might have been if she'd made different choices. Matt Haig's genre-bending novel asks whether there's such a thing as a perfect life, or if meaning comes from something else entirely. It's philosophical without being preachy, moving without being manipulative, and surprisingly funny for a book about despair. The premise could feel gimmicky but Haig makes it work through sheer warmth and insight into how we torture ourselves with "what ifs." For anyone who's ever wondered if they took the wrong turn, or stayed up late scrolling through other people's seemingly better lives.
