The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

In 18th-century France, a desperate young woman named Adeline LaRue makes a Faustian bargain with the darkness, trading her soul for eternal life. The catch? She is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she ever meets the moment she leaves their sight, unable to leave a mark on the world, own possessions, or even speak her true name without it being erased from memory. For three centuries, Addie navigates history, a fleeting muse to artists and a ghost in the lives of countless strangers, her only constant companion being the devil himself, Luc, who visits her annually, tempting her to surrender. Her existence is one of profound loneliness, marked by fleeting moments of beauty and the relentless search for ways to leave an imprint. Until, in a small Manhattan bookstore in the modern day, she encounters Henry Strauss, a young man who, inexplicably, remembers her. This impossible connection shatters Addie's solitary existence and forces her to confront the true price of her immortality and the terms of her age-old deal.
