he Life Impossible - Matt Haig Rating = **** Matt Haig's new book isn't quite as brilliant as The Midnight Library, but it's close. 72-year-old widow Grace gets a mysterious inheritance of a home on the island of Ibiza from an old coworker she hasn't talked to in over 20 years. When she decides to try to break out of her funk by going to check it out, she discovers that there is a lot more going on in Ibiza than is evident on the surface. Grace learns she has a major role to play, but first she needs to let go of the grief and guilt she has been carrying for decades. Much like The Midnight Library, this book is about someone needing to let go and move on, to stop looking backward, and to start living in the now. And aliens. There are aliens.
