anastasiaf 's review for:

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
4.0

More of a 3.8 than a 4 but oh well.

It was fine, but I don’t know if it was the pace or the fact I read it as an audiobook (though Carey Mulligan’s voice will be lulling me to sleep on bad nights) but it just lost steam.

It felt a bit preachy at the end, and a tad too fantastical for a story that had generally been pretty grounded emotionally. Not sure if that’s just where I am but oh well.

Cute enough story and premise with nice writing that it would be good enough for a read.
