Goodreads Monday is a weekly meme where you chose a random book from your Goodreads TBR and show it off. This meme is hosted by Budget Tales Book Blog.
Today, I’m spotlighting The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. I feel like I’m one of the only of my friends who hasn’t read this one. I even own a copy, but i still haven’t gotten to it. I think I’m worried it will break my heart, and I won’t recover. lol Based on all my friends, it sounds like a story I’ll love, though.

I loved the concept and the writing was very clever. The plot dragged at times for me but I still enjoyed this. Hope you get the chance to read it soon
Thanks, Louise! I really need to try to squeeze it in at some point.
Honestly, I think it’s overrated 😬😬 It’s enjoyable and a good read, but not the best book ever, which felt like back when it came out.
Ooooh, interesting. It did get a ton of hype (sill does lol).
I haven’t read this one but I have seen a lot of positives about it!
Me too. Someday I’ll get to it. lol
I loved this book! I’ll probably even reread it at some point.
Nice! I’ve heard so many good things about it!
I haven’t read this one yet either. 😬 I’ve been meaning to get to it forever and have a copy on my shelf. I’m glad to know I’m not the only one. Lol
Me too! We should get all our blogging friends who haven’t read it and do a big buddy read. lol
This sounds like fun! It would motivate me to finally read it. lol.
