A life no one will remember. A story you will never forget.
Addie is our main character. A young girl with seven freckles. She has big dreams and one day wants to leave her small village behind. She wants freedom and the chance to make her own decisions. Unfortunately, that's not what her family has in mind for her. They want her to marry. She has been told to not pray to the gods that answer after dark. But she ends up praying and one answers. She is desperate and ends up giving up her soul for a chance to live as she wants, free until she has lived her life to its full capacity. But the god has a trick up his sleeve.
I love Addie's character. She's young and full of life and wants to experience all life has to offer. She wants to make a difference. Do things. Be someone.
Luc is the god in our story. He is a drawing right out of Addie's own sketchbook come to life. He is handsome with his bold green eyes and black curls. He is alluring and enchanting. But he is definitely a villain. He is a god you do not want to pray to. He will entrap you and he will be the only one with the upper hand.
I couldn't wait for Luc to show up. I couldn't wait to see what he would do next. What a surprise he had up his sleeve.
Overall, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is a unique story on immortality, with a fantasy twist. It made me smile and it made me cry. It made me wonder what would happen next. Give Addie a chance you won't regret it. I hope this story makes it to the big screen. I can't wait to watch it!
