In the vein of The Time Traveler’s Wife and Life After Life, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is New York Times bestselling author V. E. Schwab’s genre-defying tour de force.
A Life No One Will Remember. A Story You Will Never Forget.
France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever—and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets.
Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world.
But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.

It took a few chapters to get the whole story but when I did I couldn’t wait to see what happened to Adeline. Supernatural devil take over soul type story.

A great book that takes life, love, loss, and history and puts it all into one story! Solid 8/10

This book was amazing. I kept wondering what was going to happen and when I figured it out I was like ‘no Addie!’ (Like she could hear me lol). I loved it. I highly recommend it!

This book kept me very interested, and , although a fantasy of sorts, it never really felt like that, it felt plausible, even though you know it isn’t. I loved the characters and the individual personalities of each, and will miss them and wish there was still more to read of their lives.
