Description

The New York Times Bestseller

“An odyssey of action and awe.” —The New York Times

“A wry and tender love-letter to the best of being human.” —Benedict Cumberbatch

The remarkable next novel from Matt Haig, the author of #1 New York Times bestseller The Midnight Library, with more than nine million copies sold worldwide

“What looks like magic is simply a part of life we don’t understand yet…”

When retired math teacher Grace Winters is left a run-down house on a Mediterranean island by a long-lost friend, curiosity gets the better of her. She arrives in Ibiza with a one-way ticket, no guidebook and no plan.

Among the rugged hills and golden beaches of the island, Grace searches for answers about her friend’s life, and how it ended. What she uncovers is stranger than she could have dreamed. But to dive into this impossible truth, Grace must first come to terms with her past.

Filled with wonder and wild adventure, this is a story of hope and the life-changing power of a new beginning.

  • Warmth and Mysticism

    Unexpected kindness grows into a captivating story about missed connection type friendships, sprinkled with a unique mysticism found nowhere on Earth. Have always heard about the magic of Mallorca - and I’ll have to see for myself, smelling the flowers and petting the animals along the way. Heartwarming and looking forward to catching up on others written by Matt Haig.

  • A nice escape.

    I had high hopes for The Life Impossible, especially since I thoroughly enjoyed The Midnight Library. However, I found that the pacing of this book was quite slow, with the main plot taking a long time to emerge. For much of the story, it felt as though the protagonist was on a wild goose chase, and it wasn't until about 70% through that the narrative truly began to unfold. While there were some standout moments and thought-provoking passages, overall, I struggled to connect with the story as a whole. Unfortunately, it didn’t resonate with me as much as I had hoped.
