VE Schwab does it again! First book of 2024 is a 5 star. Honestly I can’t believe I waited so long to read it! This book had me laughing and crying, and thinking and feeling and honestly… isn’t that what we all want out of a good story? 
It’s emotional in a longing sort of way, but anyone who enjoys a twist on “The Villian gets the girl” romance stories will certainly enjoy this read.

“But isn’t it wonderful,” she says “to be an idea?”

So this book wins the award for first book this year to make me cry. It has curled up in my brain (where I am sure it will stay) like the echoes of an idea, the secondhand mark, that Addie LaRue leaves behind.  

I don’t think I’ll be forgetting this story or the multitude of feelings it evoked in me for a long time.
