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

5.0

There’s so much to be said about this book and I don’t think I’ll be able to say it all with my words. What a book. What a journey. What a story that I will take with me for a long, long time. What a joyous and wholesome adventure with Addie I had!

This story touched home. Addie feels so much like me and my unbalanced desire to live & experience everything; to love, to laugh, to cry, to do a million things at the same time, to want more and to LIVE. I feel Addie and I felt so incredibly close to this fictional character that could easily be me. Or any of us.

This was my first V.E. Schwab book and I knew I would love it, I just knew it deep in my soul. I knew I’d fall in love with her writing, her characters, her words. I just knew it and I did not get disappointed. V. E. Schwab is a wonderful storyteller and I don’t remember the last time I read something so complex yet so comforting at the same time.

Addie was amazing. Henry was wonderful. Luc was captivating. All the side characters were just as interesting. I could read about ALL of them for the rest of my life.

I’m in awe. Now let me just go and re-read my favourite quotes all over again! I miss the story already!
