4.5/5 stars.
V.E.Schwab is a beautiful writer and The Invisible Life Of Addie LaRue is no different.
Although I didn't fall in love with this book, as easily I fell in love with the Vicious/Vengeful books, in the end it did make me feel. And I want books that make me feel. If I was more of a contemporary book lover than a fantasy lover this would have made my heart soar, but I wanted more of Luc and their interactions as to why it doesn't truly feel like a full 5 in my heart. But my head says 5 for the sheer complexity and beauty of the writing.
There were twists and angst and longing. There was sadness and joy. And at the core of it all there was the human need to be remembered.
