This was WONDERFUL. As someone who has had experience of mental health issues, this was an intriguing premise and will definitely change the way I look at my life.
Nora was a character I certainly identified with, as I bet many people did. She had pain, and struggled to move on from her decisions.
Everyone lives with regret. Some huge decisions, some minor. But they are there. I have recently experienced a family bereavement and my regret of how I dealt with that person in the years before they ...more

WOW. I don't know what I expected, but this audiobook was the right book at the right time. I'd been feeling really low for weeks and this almost served as more self-help than fiction, lol. I wish there had been less cat death/talk of cat death in it because that's a major trigger for me, but in all other ways this book...Really helped me. I even cried at it, felt things. Carey Mulligan's beautiful narration was the icing on the cake.

Overall Review: 4.8*
I would begin by saying this is an amazing concept which the writer has touched and has certainly done wonders with it. Everyone in the world is unhappy at some point or the other and all our lives are full of regrets. This book gives you a perspective around choices since we all are unhappy with our choices in life. The writer takes the heroine back in life giving an opportunity to live each of the lives which she regretted leaving onl ...more

3.5 stars. I loved the concept, thought the execution was decent. But man, were the first few chapters a real bummer. I wouldn't recommend you read it during a particularly sensitive/depressing time in your life. Very easy read otherwise and finished it in under two days.

¿Existe una antesala de la muerte? Es decir, un lugar metafórico o astral donde reside nuestra conciencia antes de la muerte misma. Si tal lugar existe, ¿cómo es? La biblioteca de la medianoche es ese lugar que sirve como transición entre la vida y la muerte. El reloj se detiene a las 00:00 hrs, y los libros muestran todas las posibles vidas del visitante, y al tomar un libro, puede leerlo y vivirlo, como una especie de evaluación de sus decisiones.
