This month’s Book Club pick is The Midnight Library by Matt Haig.

Nora’s life has been going from bad to worse. Then at the stroke of midnight on her last day on earth she finds herself transported to a library. There she is given the chance to undo her regrets and try out each of the other lives she might have lived. Which raises the ultimate question: with infinite choices, what is the best way to live?

The Midnight Library became a global bestseller on its release and was recently one of the most nominated titles for our recent Pleasure List campaign.
