The Invisible Life Of Addie LaRue Book Review
The story is very unique. Which you can definitely see from the plot itself.
The story is about a girl who is going to live forever but she has no one remembers her as everyone forgets about her.
This book is written very beautifully. It talks about art, music, history, and books. Also has dark academia vibes. If you love all these things then you’ll definitely enjoy reading this book.
The whole vibe of this book is just amazing. You’ll fully get involved in the story and Addie’s life. It makes us feel happy and sad at the same time. But it’s definitely more on the sad side.
You’ll get hooked on the story from the beginning till the end. The pace of the book is slow to medium. Which makes the writing style more enjoyable.
The start was amazing. It did get a bit slow in between but it is not a big problem but it was as it can affect your reading pace and can take more days to complete the book. But the beautiful writing will make up for that.
The book follows Addie’s daily life in a detailed manner. After the first half of the book, the gap between days starts to increase and that eventually increases the pace of the story.
The characters feel very real. You’ll feel connected to everyone. The Darkness, The Guy-Henry, and of course Addie LaRue.
The story is wrapped up in an amazingly unique way. VE Schwab has made a book in this book. Which made this book feel so real as if this is a biopic.
The ending is not just a normal ending. I won’t say more because it can be a spoiler. It’s better if you go into this book blindly.
I hope I convinced you to read this book. When I finished this book I had no idea what to say. I was literally speechless. It’s one of my favorites now.
