Somewhere out beyond the edge of the universe there is a library that contains an infinite number of books, each one the story of another reality. One tells the story of your life as it is, along with another book for the other life you could have lived if you had made a different choice at any point in your time.
When Nora Seed finds herself faced with the possibility of changing her life for a new one, she must journey through the Midnight Library to examine what is truly fulfilling in life, and what makes it worth living in the first place. But as she navigates through the infinite shelves, she realizes that some choices come with catastrophic unintended consequences.
