I can completely relate to how Sazed is feeling in this book and all I want to do is give him a hug

There’s this part where Brume says something that I can relate to or feel so deeply.
“He was now part of Nnamdi’s past and should be left behind since he still lived in the days of verbal ambition”

Did NOT expect that twist oh Lord

“I asked you here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.”


TO BE LOVED BRO! >>>>

There’s this quote I just read and loved.
‘Wow,’ she said, very quietly, looking back at the vastness of it all. Then, in this vanishingly small moment in the history of the universe, she took my hand, and held it all the way to the subway.

🥹I really liked that

Closing Sohrab’s door, I wondered if that was how forgiveness budded, not with the fanfare of epiphany, but with pain gathering its things, packing up and slipping away unannounced in the middle of the night.

Khaled’s writing is so poetic
“….lifting him from the certainty of turmoil and dropping him in a turmoil of uncertainty”.
That is such a beautiful beautiful line

I cannot believe what I just read, I am in shock, I am disgusted, why did that have to happen?

Stepping into this just after reading Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine and it feels familiar seeing as Eleanor is a thirty year old dealing with an almost similar problem.

Idk what I expected the Midnight Library to be about but i am liking the writing style so far

The plot thickenssss

Stoppp this book is going to make me cry 😭

“You’ve made me shiny,Laura,” I said.
‘Thank you for making me shiny.’

For an atheist Eleanor makes a lot of religious references.

I like the writing though, it reads well

“Twenty-first century communication. I fear for our nation’s standard of literacy”

😂Eleanor is so unexpectedly funny, she reminds me of Sheldon Cooper
