This was nice prepatory work for my office book club about The Midnight Library!
Love the book club kits, especially how they have developed!

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig is a thought-provoking and emotionally resonant novel that invites readers to reflect on the choices that shape their lives. With a unique premise, engaging storytelling, and deep philosophical questions, Haig creates a story that is both heart-wrenching and uplifting. This book is a perfect addition to any book club, as it sparks conversations about regret, possibility, and finding purpose.

The novel follows Nora Seed, a woman who feels trapped in her life, burdened by failures and missed opportunities. After a devastating event, she finds herself in the Midnight Library, a mysterious place that exists between life and death. There, Nora is given the chance to explore alternate versions of her life—each one representing a different path she could have taken. As Nora revisits the choices she regrets and imagines the “what-ifs,” she learns valuable lessons about the nature of regret, happiness, and what truly makes life worth living.

Haig’s writing is gentle yet profound, weaving together elements of magical realism with deep philosophical musings on existence and mental health. The structure of the novel—where Nora’s journey through the Midnight Library allows her to experience different versions of her life—keeps the narrative fresh and compelling. Each of the alternate realities Nora explores provides a new perspective, which will resonate with anyone who has ever questioned their own life choices.

The themes of the book are universally relatable, particularly for readers grappling with feelings of dissatisfaction or looking for meaning in their lives. The idea of infinite possibilities and the ability to choose a different path offers both comfort and a sense of freedom. Haig’s exploration of depression, existential dread, and the search for purpose adds an emotional depth that makes the novel not just a fantasy but a meaningful reflection on life itself.

The pacing of the book is steady, and while there are emotional moments of introspection, the story never feels bogged down in heavy philosophical discussions. The character of Nora is well-developed, and her emotional growth throughout the book feels authentic and moving. While the premise might seem fantastical, Haig skillfully grounds the story in real, human emotions, making it both relatable and comforting.

One of the book’s strengths is how it handles mental health. Haig does an excellent job of portraying the struggles of depression and how it can distort our perception of ourselves and our lives. Nora’s journey through the Midnight Library is not just about fixing what went wrong, but about learning to accept and love herself, regardless of what could have been.

I absolutely LOVE book club kits! Sometimes you enjoy the book but you can't come up with questions on your own or you need help getting the conversation going.

Magical realism, life questions and hope, it has it all.
Best book of the year!

It's no secret that I am not the biggest fan of "The Midnight Library". However, what I also have been pretty vocal about is the fact, that I think this book is great for discussions and book clubs.

This book club kit proves me right, because the questions are well fitting for the book ,even though I think some of them have a similar tone to it and maybe, could be combined or replaced with other questions.

The author interview was a great input though and gives a great insight on how this book came about.

I am seriously OBSESSED with this book club kit!!! It has author interview pages, discussion question pages, good ideas, read next ideas, games…. So many fun things to use with the book!! A great tool to have!!

This book club kit is a fantastic resource for Midnight Library. I read the title a few months ago and although I found the book not to my taste, the kit itself is great for starting discussions with friends or groups on the topics covered. Thank you so much to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to download this kit. I will be providing it to my book club at our next meeting.
