I have been putting off writing a review for this title because I know that whatever I write will not do this story justice. READ THIS BOOK. Don't read any summaries - go in as blind as you can (that is what I did) because the magic of Addie LaRue's journey will sweep you off your feet. Schwab, the author, expertly blends historical fiction and fantasy elements to create a storyline that you will not want to end. Seriously, this book is just under 500 pages long and I probably could have read 500 pages more if the author had written them. I could not put down this novel and only wish that I could experience reading it again for the first time. The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is one of my all-time favorite books so do yourself a favor and pick up this title as soon as you can.
