"benim burada ne işim var?" diye düşündüğünüz oldu mu hiç? bir labirentin içindeymişsiniz ve kaybolduğunuzdan eminmişsiniz de, her bir dönemeci kendiniz yarattığınız için bu tamamıyla sizin suçunuzmuş gibi hissettiğiniz? üstelik dışarı çıkmanızı sağlayacak birçok yol olduğunu da biliyorsunuz çünkü labirentten çıkmayı başarmış, dışarıda gülüşüp oynayan insanların seslerini duyuyorsunuz. çalı çitlerin arasından arada bir görüyorsunuz onları. yaprakların arasından gelip geçen şekiller halinde. öyle mutlu görünüyorlar ki onlara değil, bu işi onlar gibi yapamadığınız için kendinize kızgınsınız. oldu mu hiç? yoksa bu labirentte kalan tek ben miyim?

The midnight library isn't a book about death.

It's a book about what it means to be alive . About the difference between being alive and living . About expectations , our own and other's. About what makes a person who they are and what makes a life a distinct one. A book about decisions , small one . A book I recommend. Genuinely.

With love ,

-Elle aka All the everythings

I just finished the Midnight Library and it was so Brilliantly beautiful.

Nora's journey of self discovery in finding out that she desperately wants to live, and see life unfold around her, is wonderful. The way Matt, the author, describes her feelings of despair to the then realisation of hope is lovely, and I feel that almost any human capable of feeling emotion will be able to relate to something within the pages of the Midnight Library, and be able to feel inspired by Nora's pursuit of life. I enjoyed the theme of regret being shown as something that is ultimately an unknown and never something we can rely on as it never a certain life truth. The Book of Regrets getting lighter and lighter to show Nora's growth, understanding and *perspective* of her root life was fantastic. Out of all the different lives she experienced she ultimately chose her root life and learned that her mundane root life was actually not mundane at all but a life to pursue, a life worth living and being alive in.

"It's not what we look at that matters, it's what we see."

“É uma revelação e tanto descobrir que o lugar para onde você quis fugir é exatamente o mesmo lugar de onde fugiu. Que a prisão não era o lugar, mas a perspectiva.”

– Nora Seed, A biblioteca da meia-noite, pág 304.

"She imagined, now, what it would be like to accept herself completely. Every mistake she had ever made. Every mark on her body. Every dream she hadn't reached or pain she had felt. Every lust or longing she had suppressed.

She imagined accepting it all. The way she accepted nature. The way she accepted a glacier or a puffin or the breach of a whale.

She imagined seeing herself as just another brilliant freak of nature. Just another sentient animal, trying their best.

And in doing so, she imagined what it was like to be free."

- The Midnight Library by Matt Haig (p. 143)

"Ne kadar çok olasılık varsa, o kadar çok hayatın vardır. Farklı seçimler yaptığın hayatların vardır. Yaptığın farklı seçimler farklı sonuçlara yol açar. Tek bir şeyi bile farklı yapmış olsan, farklı bir yaşam öykün olacaktı. ...Bu öykülerin hepsi mevcut. Hepsi bu yaşam kadar gerçek."

"Libros de autoayuda"

Nunca me llamaron la atención este libro y nunca supe bien porque. Hoy termine "La biblioteca de la medianoche" y es lo mas cercano a un libro de autoayuda que lei y me gusto tanto como me desagrado. La historia en si es llamativa, cuando mueres estala opcion de acabar en una biblioteca que te habilita a conocer las vidas que habrias tenido si hubieras tomado otros caminos. La idea no era mala, ni tampoco el mensaje "no te concentres en lo que no paso, ni en lo que pudo haber pasado, si no el ahora" y "no es tan importante el objeto en si, si no lo que interpretamos de el (ya que aqui juegan nuestros pensamientos)", el problema es como se planteo este mensaje en esta historia.

Los "consejos" de vida optimista estan puesto muy bruscamente, en ocasiones queda genial con la narracion, pero en otros momentos queda ridiculo y anti climatico. Siento que esto hace que el mensaje no cale del todo en la persona, despues de todo cuando uno aprende algo no siempre es capas de ponerlo en palabras tan "filosoficas". Esto es mas un punto personal, porque estoy segura que hay gente que le gusta y le sirve esos mensajes positivos tan expuestos, a mi me gustaron y no me gustaron, dependiendo el momento en si.

Últimamente estoy teniendo problemas con los finales y el problema esta en que si me vas a dar un final feliz, que por lo menos sea acorde a la historia, es decir realista para la historia. Se que es imposible que exista esta posibilidad de viajar entre vidad y vivir todo lo que vivio nora, pero no poder dar un final al estilo Disney si todo esta planteado en un mundo "real". Las cosas no siempre son tan fáciles y aun asi no significa que la vida es una mierda (aunque el libro deja en claro esto... PERO IGUAL)

some books put you on the edge of seat making you wonder what's about to happen. Some books transport you into another world where you live momentarily. Like a taking up a character and playing an rp game with pre written plot n dialogues.

Some books are just reflection into your inner thoughts. for me Midnight Library was such a book. This and The bell jar.

It's through the narrators you find yourself. You see yourself because you relate to most if not all the same life philosophy or beliefs or just simply see life the same way as the characters (or rather the writers)

Midnight Library gave me the opportunity to visit life from a new perspective while still maintaining my core beliefs. I felt I learned along with Nora.

I found my new coping mechanism for life. The midnight Library(the concept) is my coping mechanism to be alive.

It's okay if I'm not an astronaut in space. It's okay if i never become a writer. It's okay if i never live on the edge of the city or in the woods. It's okay If i can't do or be everything in this lifetime. Because I can do them in my other lives. I AM DOING them in my other lives. I AM ALIVE in my other lives / realities. I am living infinite lives simultaneously. Of course I'll try my best live the way i want in this life but it's okay if im not able to. I won't regret the things that aren't are.

I think this strange wave of optimism will come n go as waves do.

I'll chant ' you don't have to understand life, you have to live it' it seems like i was supposed to hear it. It will soothe my existential dreading self for a while. Alas i dont think there's cure for existentialism. Just momentary reliefs. And this will be that, the momentary relief from existentialism.

i get why I liked this book. It's mostly based on Sylvia Plath's fig tree metaphor. Branches from a single tree each branch leading to a different twig and at the end is a fruit. Each fig is a result of a set of different choices. Sylvia can't decide which fig to pick and they all fall to ground, rotting.
