What to expect

From V. E. Schwab, the No. 1 Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue: a new genre-defying, unforgettable novel to sink your teeth into.

Santo Domingo de la Calzada, 1532.
London, 1837.
Boston, 2019.

Three young women, their bodies planted in the same soil, their stories tangling like roots.

One grows high, and one grows deep, and one grows wild.

And all of them grow teeth.



V. E. Schwab's The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 05/10/2020

Critics Review

Schwab is so good at creating a fantastical world, but letting her characters, and their complexities, take centre stage

Jodi Picoult, author of My Sister's Keeper

Sends you whirling through a dizzying kaleidoscopic adventure through centuries filled with love, loss, art and war . . . you will find yourself in quick turns both aching with heartbreak, and gleefully crowing at the truly delicious, wicked cleverness in store

Naomi Novik on The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

Addie LaRue is a book perfectly suspended between darkness and light, myth and reality. [This novel] is – ironically – unforgettable

Alix E. Harrow on The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

The kind of book you encounter only once in a lifetime . . . a defiant, joyous rebellion against time, fate and even death itself – and a powerful reminder that the only magic great enough to conquer all of it is love

Peng Shepherd on The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

Schwab’s page turner is an achingly poignant romantic fantasy about the desperate desire to make one’s mark on the world

Oprah.com, ‘Best LGBTQ Books of 2020’ on The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
