“Henry wonders, as they wait in the queue, if some people have natural style, or if they simply have the discipline to curate themselves every day.”
The breakdown: A deal with a devil + a love story + a twist
Reminds me of: The Time Traveler’s Wife, The Midnight Library…and a bunch of books I actually like.
Best advice: Give it a few chapters. I’m not sure whether it’s the book or where my head was at when I started it, but it definitely took a minute for me to get into it.
What to look forward to: Addie’s way of making a mark on the world; moments of quiet wonder; a surprisingly satisfying resolution.
