Which life is right for us?
All of us have wondered if we could have done something differently in our lives and where such a decision would eventually lead. Nora Seed gets that chance when she finds herself in the mysterious Midnight Library - but hand on heart, few would want to change with her. In order to get there, she had to find herself on the threshold of life and death, in her case by her own doing.
Nora's life so far had been full of despair and regret, and one day the feeling that she had failed everyone and that no one needed her led her to attempt suicide. Now, however, it looks like she has been given a second chance, or rather an almost endless number of second chances. The Midnight Library allows a groping woman to atone for the sins of her past and try out various alternative roles in life - to become a caring wife, a famous singer, a respected philosopher, a successful sportswoman or a loving mother. It's up to her if she can find the one that will lead her to happiness among so many paths in life...
The bestselling novel was the winner of the 2020 Goodreads Choice Award in the fiction category.
