Incredible. Perfect for the existential girlies.
Also, what a gift to exist at the same time as Julia Whelan audiobooks. That woman tells stories better than I can read.

4.5 stars. I enjoyed this one and found it exceptionally well-written. I liked seeing how Addie’s life was impacted as a result of her soul-selling deal, and enjoyed the mystery of her meeting Henry, the first person in nearly 300 years who is able to remember her. I found the plot with Luc to be slightly rushed, particularly near the end, but I still loved this novel and it so far ranks as one of my favorites this year.

“That time always ends a second before you’re ready.
That life is the minutes you want minus one.”
This was such a well written book and overall beautiful story. I loved the casual queer relationships as it felt very refreshing. I loved the dark elements to the story — who doesn’t love a good devil soul exchange? Speaking of .. LUC! He was written SO WELL. I loved and hated him. This story captures the complexity of emotion, life’s necessary pain and vulnerabilities, the contrast of love vs. possession/obsession, and without spoiling TOO MUCH, the book ended up being so meta! Loved that
I found Henry so relatable and my heart ached and warmed for him. Addie is a beautifully dynamic character and I love how her story is so connected to art itself and how that truly became her way of “leaving her mark,” so to speak.
I was hesitant about reading this, only because it almost felt more contemporary than what Im used to but it was just fantasy enough to keep me in—and boy am I glad. Such a beautiful, yet tragic at times, story.

Yo juraba que le iba a dar 3 estrellas o menos a este libro. Estuve apunto de abandonarlo varias veces, más que todo en el primer 50% del libro. Me aburrio demasiado el inicio, muy lentooo. Ya me estaba desanimando, 200 páginas leídas y el libro es lentísimo. A tal grado que me tomó como 4 días leer esas primeras páginas. Pero todo eso cambió cuando llegué como al 60% del libro, me leí lo demás en un suspiro. Esas partes estuvieron buenísimas, super adictivas. Fueron tan buenas que me hicieron subirle la calificación que tenía en mente. Cuando ya todo encaja la historia se vuelve muyyy bonita y luego se entiende el principio del libro.
Se que no debería pero a mi si me gustaron Addie y Luc

La verdad es que me gustaron tanto la trama como los personajes, pero el libro de 545 páginas podría haber sido de 350 como mucho. Entiendo el porqué de la longitud, pero igual me pareció demasiado largo sin necesidad.
