The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue | V. E. Schwab
In the vein of The Time Travelers Wife and Life After Life, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is New York Times bestselling author V. E. Schwabs 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 foreverand 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. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

I really loved this book. It has everything: history, art, fantasy, and, of course, a likable, gutsy protagonist who is cursed to wander the world always forgotten by all that meet her. How can you make your mark on the world if the world cannot remember you? How do you find love and connection? Beautifully answered in this very well written and satisfying read. Also, kudos to the narrator of the audiobook, Julia Whelan.

Of how much she would lose in the centuries she has spent alive of how much there was to be lost.

Until one day she met the love that would change her life.

Someone who could actually remember her and give her a reason to fight.

A reason to live and a reason to enjoy her life.

So this poem is for you Addie LaRue.

A girl who has lived a million lives.

So guys I did a thing and wrote a poem because the book was so great. Enjoy 😊

Reggie Awwww that‘s nice! 🖤🖤🖤 5mo

A Poem For Addie LaRue

This poem is for a girl who lives in a world where no one remembers her existence.

She can leave no physical marks behind without facing any resistance.

She has lived in the world where with just one look a person cannot remember her face or her name.

A world where she has seen much darkness and pain.

When she made her deal with the Dark she did not understand the cost.

My dad and I have a mini book club that we started a couple years ago and we‘ve struggled with our picks so far, but he requested something fun this time around so I‘m hoping that Addie LaRue will be a win for both of us! Finally a good reason to get this off my TBR.

Loved it! Another hit from V.E. Schwab. I would pick this one up again. Addie is so well written that she feels like she could be real. Brilliant book!

BkClubCare And, do you recommend this for narration? (Of course, with Julia Whelan! Should I definitely go audio?) 12mo
Zatetic1 @BkClubCare yes I loved the narration! The character is French but loses her accent over time. The voice actress did this so well that you could tell exactly which time period you were in just based on the accent! 11mo
BkClubCare @Zatetic1 - awesome 👏 thank you 11mo

2024 was a good year for reading and I read some fantastic books. I read every Sarah J Maas book and loved them all. My favourite book of the year was The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue 💙

Life got in the way of getting to read this book for a few months when I initially started it. Highly recommend reading this beautifully written story. Without too much detail, Addie bargains away her soul. She soon learns what she got wasn't exactly what she wanted. This is my first book from this author, but will definitely read more.

Awesome premise - I was hooked very early on! Unfortunately the middle part was repetitive so that took away from the whole experience. I did like the ending.

This one has been popular the last couple of years but I didn‘t enjoy it too much. It felt like word vomit a lot of the time. I liked the premise, the characters, and the ending. But the meat of the story was chaotic. Perhaps better editing was needed?

Addie LaRue lives in a world where she is forgotten the second she leaves a person's sight. After making a desperate pact 300 years ago to be allowed to live, Addie is cursed to wander the world invisible to everyone around her until one man remembers her. A beautifully crafted story that spans centuries whilst being rooted in the present, which sweeps you along. Truly loved this book and will be recommending it to people for a long time.

I cannot put this book down! It is captivating with the seamless swing from past to present. Do I have to go to work tomorrow or can I bunk off to read this all night?

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V. E. Schwab

This is hands down one of the best books I have ever read. It's a bit different but oh so good. A magical experience for the mind. A love story for the soul. I don't say soul lightly either. I story of hope. A story of “Not forgetting.“ A story about a girl. Then a boy. And the deals they made.
