The Midnight Library by Matt Haig centers on a library that contains an infinite number of books, each telling the story of a different reality. When Nora Seed finds this library beyond the edge of the universe, she’s faced with multiple possibilities of the lives she could’ve lived, and must now search within herself as she travels through the Midnight Library to decide what is truly fulfilling in life – and what makes it worth living in the first place.
“Amazing and utterly beautiful, The Midnight Library is everything you'd expect from the genius storyteller who is Matt Haig,” says Joanna Cannon, author of The Trouble with Goats and Sheep.
Haig’s novel is on the New York Times Fiction Best Seller list. Here are other books on the list:
- Ocean Prey by John Sandford
- The Devil’s Hand by Jack Carr
- The Red Book by James Patterson and David Ellis
