bkwrm1317 's review for:
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
by V.E. Schwab
emotional
mysterious
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
Solid middle of the line read for me.
I really enjoyed some of the twists and turns of Addie's story, her history with Luc, and Henry's involvement in her story. The insight we get into Luc with Henry's story is also really interesting.
That said, this one didn't knock my socks off, as most really hyped up books end up being for me, but it's still worth the read for folks who enjoy Schwab, and who enjoy tropes of strong femme protags, women bucking the expectations of their times in historical fiction/fantasy, etc.
