Story
Kell is one of the last Travelers - magicians with a rare, coveted ability to travel between parallel universes. As such, he can choose where he lands. There's Grey London, dirty and boring, without any magic, ruled by a mad King George. Then there's Red London, where life and magic are revered, and the Maresh Dynasty presides over a flourishing empire. There's White London, ruled by whoever has murdered their way to the throne. And once upon a time, there was Black London...but no one speaks of that now.

In 1893, there's no such thing as witches. There used to be, in the wild, dark days before the burnings began, but now witching is nothing but tidy charms and nursery rhymes. If the modern woman wants any measure of power, she must find it at the ballot box. But when the Eastwood sisters - James Juniper, Agnes Amaranth, and Beatrice Belladonna - join the suffragists of New Salem, they begin to pursue the forgotten words and ways that might turn the women's movement into the witch's movement.

Nice enough
Honestly at first I found it very boring and had a hard time getting into it eventually It did get more interesting and I did enjoy it but the characters were kinda ify for me and even though the ending was pretty good I did expect everything that happened early on. Another thing was 300+ years living with like no diversity? I did appreciate the bisexual rep tho.
I understand why some like it but it wasn’t worth the hype for me personally.

Great, enjoyable read
This is a good good book. And the ending is exactly what I needed to be, which really leaves a satisfying finish in my mouth.
I have really, really enjoyed listening to this book. It is a tad bit long, yet there is not one scene or moment I would have glossed over or taken out. It all fits together quite nicely.
It is very atmospheric, which I LOVE in an audiobook. Julia Whalen (my girl crush narrator 4ever) does a fabulous job yet again of transporting me to exactly where Addie is in the moment, both physically and emotionally.
The characters can be a bit juvenile, yes, but the relationships between them and the descriptions weave through the story like silk, binding it all together in a beautifully wrapped package.
It is not a strongly plot driven story, rather character driven, however the plot is solidly mapped out and holds up throughout the book. The settings are really what take you away.
I would recommend this book to anyone that likes fantasy/fiction, and just a generally good read. I am even considering buying a copy for my kindle so I can highlight some of my favourite passages!

it's tiring
this story was very long and drawn out. most things were described to death, over and over again. I found addies relationship with luke to be really frustrating, the back and forth between them felt childish and hardly any thing changed. I didn't like Henry at all, their relationship seemed pointless. be prepared to hear "shadow, storm, and orbit" a LOT. there was a tonne of redundancies all the way up until the end. I think this author could take up an entire chapter just to describe a pencil. don't get me wrong, I appreciate a thorough description but this was just overkill. I liked the performance though, the narrators voice is enjoyable.

It's a long book...but I still wasn't ready for it to be over. At first I found the switches in time and perspective a bit unsteadying, but I quickly adapted and it makes complete sense once you begin to understand the story. I would read again after a while, and would highly recommend this book to anyone especially if you enjoy historical fiction and things with just a touch of magic.

Prose style not to my liking
The story is interesting and the voice actor is good, but there is just one level of emotion throughout all the hours of this book. Perhaps if I’d read it rather than listening to it I’d have enjoyed it more. I kept finding myself rolling my eyes because I felt like was listening to a melodramatic teen who feels everything excessively intensely. Who can keep that up for 300 years? I also didn’t like the prose style— multiple similes for what seemed like everything. I think a more thorough editing and a firmer director activeIy looking for interpretations that would allow for variation in the emotional tone would have made a better experience for me. I liked the ending.

I'm glad it's finally over...
You'll need to gird your loins if you're going to dive into this book. It is deep, dark, heavy and sad. After each listening session, you'll feel like a soggy, wet blanket has been placed over your soul. The narration was sublime and needed to be to drag u thru the depths of this book. It needed far more dialog between the characters, as it read more like a memoir about Addie and Henry than a novel. So much detail! And Henry's background story should have been less, and Addie's more. This seemed to be 2 books in 1. Having said all this, it was beautifully recorded and the prose was magnificent. How someone could have come up with this subject matter and lived to tell about it is a miracle in itself. It is depressing and lovely, all at the same time. You have been warned.

So much better than I was expecting and that was already high
Oh my god I can’t even begin to explain what goes on in this book. So much happens, emotions just explode out of the words; out of Julia’s performance. This is my third book from V. E. Schwab and she knocked it out of the park and straight into space. The ending (without spoiling much) is bittersweet but it closes the story nicely.
This came out at the perfect time. It’s a great and powerful story, amongst a bleak and unpredictable year. I want to revisit this novel again sometime soon.

Schwab at her best
I've read a lot of V.E. Schwab's work, including her Conjuring of Light series, middle years works, YA stuff. Overall, Addie LaRue is a sophisticated and engaging book, one I prefer to Conjuring of Light. It has echoes of Gene Wolfe (Latro), Neil Gaiman (Hobb in the Sandman), and Erin Morgenstern (in general). I am knocking it down a star because about halfway through, the book became overwhelmed by the romance. The romance is important to the plot, but I just didn't find it very compelling. I decided not to recommend the book to several friends just on the basis of the romance, though I think a lot of other people will really like this aspect of the book. Just not me, or my friends.

Two Centuries too Long
Interesting idea and excellent narration. However, slow to start and for my taste a main character that lacked, well, character.
I could understand the innocence and lack of experience at the beginning of the story but as the chapters unfolded her development was superficial and manipulative.
This was not a book I would recommend to most friends.

Wow, just wow. Everything about this book is five stars. The story is so heartfelt and heart wrenching at the same time. I think people of all audiences could fall in love with this book and find themselves entranced in Addies life.
Julia Whalen has done an immensely great job at performing this book and made it all the more real.
One read through is simply not enough for this book it will definitely be one that you keep coming back for.

I momentarily hesitated before purchasing this audiobook, but the reviews were so strong that I decided to give it a try. I finished this book in a little over 24 hours, playing at a slightly higher speed of course. The characters are incredibly vivid and, though aspects of the selling your soul storyline have been told before, the book is still fresh and like nothing I have ever read previously. I definitely recommend this book!

A wonder to listen ! A masterpiece
The quality of the narration is out of this world and I listen to a lot of fictions. Julia Whelan is able to give an auditive identity to each character and her voice gives each word an impact, a taste that enchanted me for the last week. I m a French researcher in medieval literature and folklore and Victoria schwab made such a good representation of the dark... This is brilliant. This is literature.

Excellent narration and good story idea.
Some passages a bit too repetitious. I wish there had been more surprises. Sex with the devil should be less predictable.
