The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, by V.E. Schwab, is the story of a young woman ahead of her time. Adeline LaRue is a young woman in 1714 France who has no desire to play housewife. She wants to be free, to make her own choices and to see more of the world than her little village. Her mentor, Estelle, teaches her the hidden magic of the woods near her home, the streams and meadows. All with the warning to never pray to the gods after dark. But as Adeline grows, and as her life takes a turn for the ordinary, she makes a deal with the dark for an extraordinary life—only, it’s a life no one can remember.
