I wanted to love this book. I loved Midnight Library, but I only liked The Life Impossible. I swapped to the audiobook to finish it and it's very well read. Still, I enjoyed it and recommend it but it's not my favorite Matt Haig book. ...more

Stephen Colbert
“If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it.”
Stephen Colbert

Terry Pratchett
“If you trust in yourself. . .and believe in your dreams. . .and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”
Terry Pratchett, The Wee Free Men
