“You don’t have to understand life. You just have to live it.”
4 stars. This book hit me like a ton of bricks. Such a beautiful and emotional read. I will admit it started off rough for me in the beginning and I wasn’t entirely sure if I was going to enjoy it or not. It’s one of those reads that just sneaks up on you the more you read it.

Having just read this right after reading my favorite book of 2020, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, this book just didn't compare. However, it is a really good book in its own right. The hard part was that I figured out the ending way too soon, which took a bit of the enjoyment out of the book. That was a big contrast to The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue which held my attention to the very end and ended in a way I did not at all expect.

I was wary of this one. I was a little scared I was not going to like this book. So much hype but man it was fantastic. Little dark with lots of hope and no easy outs at the end. This was not your typical happy ending but even better than if everything was roses and sunshine because that would defeat the whole message in this book. Very good, everyone should read.
I can definitely see how this book and Nora's life/struggles would resonate with a lot of readers, and I love the concept of this story - being caught in a library between life and death with an opportunity to try on other versions of your life - but I just wasn't able to empathize with or invest in Nora as a character.
