I think the concept of the plot is really creative, and the author keeps track of a thousand little details of Addie’s curse that could’ve created a thousand plot holes.
At times it was predictable, but not in a way that spoiled my enjoyment.
This book made me want to savor every moment of life and love. It was entertaining but also thought provoking and heart-fire stoking.

He llegado a odiar y amar a los personajes de una forma inexplicable. Addie está durante sus más de trescientos años de vida anhelando un amor que nunca llega, porque el “amor” que siente por Henry y el “amor” que siente por Luc son ambos TÓXICOS. Está con Henry porque es la única persona que se acuerda de ella, así que decide aferrarse a ella al igual que Henry decide estar con Addie porque es la única que no tiene esa “bruma” en los ojos cuando la ve; con Luc, Addie siente una “atracción” y tienen una tensión sexual de la hostia, pero se aferra a él simplemente porque durante tantos años él es el único que la conoce y la recuerda. Eso de “eres mía” me ha hecho 0 gracia por todo el tema de que una persona no es una posesión OBVIAMENTE.
Me hubiera gustado haber visto más de la vida de Addie, como por ejemplo más eventos de su vida, porque, durante 300 años, solo parece importante decir que fue la musa de muchos artistas y pues aunque eso no es nada malo, me parece algo demasiado perfecto (no sabría ni cómo explicarlo😂).
Aún así, el final me ha hecho sentir totalmente vacía por dentro. No sé si 4 estrellas es demasiado para este libro, pero ahora mismo me parecen las adecuadas, y no voy a darle más estrellas porque, como he dicho antes, es un libro bastante lento y también creo que le sobran bastantes páginas.
Conclusión: Ten cuidado con lo que deseas y nunca le reces a los dioses de la noche.
