The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V. E. Schwab
Macmillan Publishers
Paperback
For someone damned to be forgettable, Addie LaRue is a most delightfully unforgettable character, and her story is the most joyous evocation of unlikely immortality. ― Neil Gaiman
Victoria Schwab sends you whirling through a dizzying kaleidoscopic adventure through centuries filled with love, loss, art and war ― all the while dazzling your senses with hundreds of tiny magical moments along the way. The Invisible Life of Addie Larue will enchant readers as deeply as its heroine’s Faustian bargain; you will find yourself in quick turns both aching with heartbreak, and gleefully crowing at the truly delicious, wicked cleverness in store. ― Naomi Novik,
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is the kind of book you encounter only once in a lifetime. A defiant, joyous rebellion against time, fate, and even death itself, and a powerful reminder that the only magic great enough to conquer all of it is love ― Peng Shepherd, author of The Book of M
It's a bit cheeky to call THE INVISIBLE LIFE OF ADDIE LARUE Faust for romantic bisexual goths, but it's not wrong ― NPR Books
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.
