the power of agency and choice

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig explores the power of choice and agency through the story of Nora Seed, who finds herself in a magical library between life and death. Each book offers a glimpse into a life she could have lived had she made different choices. The novel shows that while we cannot change the past, we hold the agency to shape our present and future—and that our worth isn’t defined by regrets, but by the choices we make now.
