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.

    My mom discarded The Midnight Library from a book club read - she “didn’t understand it” …and I picked it up. It was the beginning of my love of Matt Haig’s stories. The Life Impossible is a book about being present - noticing all the beauty life offers, even in time so trial and sadness. We forget. This book reminds us. Loved it.

    I can’t really say what it was about this book, but I knew right from the beginning I was going to enjoy the book all the way to the end and I was correct . At the very first I thought this might be hard to get into or to keep track of, but it wasn’t . It was wonderful!
  • Slow and boring

    Slow and boring and oh, so dumb. I’m embarrassed to have read it and for the author to have written it.
  • What an imaginative romp!

    And at some point, we will come to see what is true, won't we? Magic, aliens, all things that we do not get understand but that was true about science in the past, it's true now, and it will always be true. Matt Haig brings these characters to life, and I can only Marvel out how his mind works, as he tries to describe to us what is happening within the indomitable Grace.

    I fell in love with Matt Haig's writing when I read The Midnight Library. (Who wouldn't?) His newest effort about impossibly esoteric happenings is just as deep, rich, and wise. I feel like I should create fridge magnets out of several of his sentences. I will be watching for more of his heart-and-mind sharings. Thank you, Matt!

    Not much to it. I thought it was repetitive and a bit boring.
