The Midnight Library

Very beautiful. That kind of book that can move people's heart: A doorway that teach us to feel our existence in the form of self-love. Sometimes we don't have to understand life, we just have to live it.

Fue una linda lectura que me dio oportunidad de analizar otras perspectivas de la vida.

Sweet book that makes you think about living.

Not the right place, not the right time, not the right faculty, not the right job, not the right person...
We all ask ourselves once in while something with "what would have happened if...".

Even though the concept of story is not 'wow' at all, the storyline was quite exciting to read till the end and see what the leading lady, Nora, will come to. Perhaps if I share more regrets with Nora, this book would resonate with me more. It lacked some depth for me.

Everything starts great, and the premise is fabulous. It has beautiful and funny phrases, and it can be very uplifting. I think the last third of the book ruins the whole thing when it becomes a plain story about deciding to live with such a lame moral finale. It feels like when you rush the end of essay before a deadline.

Lectura qué te atrapa. Algunas partes me parecieron demasiada descripción. Más allá de eso me gustó la historia.

I wish all people concerned by ending their life would first read this book. I wish my cousins would read it...

wow! that's everything i can say after i finally finished reading it. in general, it took me more than three months to read it, but actually, i was reading it only for a couple of days throughout those months. at first, i dropped it off because it was so complicated to read those first chapters about nora's intentions and decisions on her life. her mood was overwhelming for me, so i literally couldn't keep reading it.

do i regret it? well, no. the author had taught me not to regret anything because it doesn't mean that i would miss something really good.

i always knew that i would finish it one day and that day is finally here. there are quite contradictive reviews and personally, i still think that maybe that hype around the book, even a year later, is a wee bit overrated. the idea of the book is actually amazing! it provides so many crucial thoughts, philosophy and quantum physics references, but the plot itself was in my opinion, so slow and dry.

along the line, somewhere in the middle of the book i had that thought that maybe i should have just dropped it again and put it on the shelf of"DNF". i also had a thought that in the end, it would again all be connected to the idea of finding love. and i'm extremely glad that the final thought of the main heroine wasn't about that, rather it was completely concentrated on the perks of being alive and live that precious life of yours.

Amazing book, I loved it very much!!

3/5. Замечательная задумка и много идей, заставляющих немного переосмыслить жизнь. Не likeable персонажи, иногда стиль написания казался ну очень наивным, в принципе автор пишет ещё и детские книги, возможно поэтому. И все-таки элементы fantasy всё таки не моё. Зато быстро читается. В целом, неплохая книга на один раз.
