52 - Get back over here for another happy hour chatting about The Midnight Library by Matt Haig! This week we're sipping on a (not furry) Schrodinger's Cat and a yummy Peaches and Cream for Mama Mariana. We talk about the idea that life only gives us what we can handle. In talking about the many lives of Nora Seed, we talk about the many lives we'd like to live and bucket list items we wanna check off in this life, and we play a fun little game guessing the lives we DIDN'T see Nora live. We also get a fascinating Deep Dive recommendation from our wonderful listener Evicka: NPR's Hidden Brain Podcast | Rewinding and Rewriting: The Alternate Universes In Our Heads.

Pages Discussed:  144-216 (End of chapter "The Many Lives of Nora Seed)

Next Week:  We finish the book!

Join us again for Happy Hour next Thursday, and follow us on Insta @AreTheseBooksDrunk for updates on our next episode & cocktail pairing so that you can read along and sip along with us!
