I don’t think listening to this book did it any favours. I found the time changes hard to follow sometimes and I couldn’t flip back the pages to double-check were I was up to! I also felt it could have done with a good edit - too many words that didn’t really make a difference to the story. The language was a bit too overblown for my liking. I also thought it extraordinary that she managed to rub shoulders with just about every famous artist, writer and musician over her three hundred years on this planet- highly unlikely, don’t you think? Especially as she seemed to have no particular skills herself.
However, despite these misgivings, I did find myself getting lost in the many lives led by Addie LaRue, and it begs the question: ‘Would you sell your soul to avoid an arranged marriage?’
