Invisible life of Addie Larue

V. E. Schwab

The Invisible Life of Addie Larue, in the vein of The Time Traveler’s Wife and Afterlife by V. E. Schwab, a commercially successful New York Times writer, is a feat that breaks the laws of the genre. A life no one will remember. A story you will never forget. France, 1714. In a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian deal to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addy Larue and a glorious adventure that plays out across continents over the centuries, through history and art, during which the young a woman discovers what she can do to leave her mark on the world. But that all changes when, almost 300 years later, Addy stumbles upon a young man in a secret bookstore and he remembers her name.
