Schwab V. The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
In the vein of The Time Travelers Wife and Life After Life, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is New York Times bestselling author V. E. Schwabs genre-defying tour de force. Addie La Rue has learnt the hard way that deals with the devil are tricky things. Immortal but eternally invisible and forgotten by people, Addie exists only as a muse for artists throughout history. The only person who remembers her is the devil, who visits every year on the anniversary of their deal. Until one day, in a bookshop in New York, she meets a boy who remembers her.

Schwab V. E. Das unsichtbare Leben der Addie LaRue
»Das unsichtbare Leben der Addie LaRue« ist ein gro?er historischer Fantasy-Roman, eine bittersu?e Liebesgeschichte – und eine Hommage an die Kunst und die Inspiration. Addie LaRue ist die Frau, an die sich niemand erinnert. Die unbekannte Muse auf den Bildern Alter Meister. Die namenlose Schonheit in den Sonetten der Dichter. Dreihundert Jahre lang reist sie durch die europaische Kulturgeschichte – und bleibt dabei doch stets allein. Seit sie im Jahre 1714 einen Pakt mit dem Teufel geschlossen hat, ist sie dazu verdammt, ein ruheloses Leben ohne Freunde oder Familie zu fuhren und als anonyme Frau die Gro?stadte zu durchstreifen. Bis sie dreihundert Jahre spater in einem alten, versteckten Antiquariat in New York einen jungen Mann trifft, der sie wiedererkennt. Und sich in sie verliebt. Fur Leser*innen von Erin Morgenstern, Neil Gaiman, Audrey Niffenegger, Leigh Bardugo und Diana Gabaldon

Klune T. Under the Whispering Door
Witty, haunting, and kind, Under the Whispering Door is a gift for troubled times. TJ Klune brings us a warm hug of a story about a man who spent his life at the office - and his afterlife building a home. From the author of joyous New York Times bestseller The House in the Cerulean Sea. Welcome to Charon's Crossing. The tea is hot, the scones are fresh and the dead are just passing through. When a reaper comes to collect Wallace from his own sparsely-attended funeral, Wallace is outraged. But he begins to suspect she's right, and he is in fact dead. Then when Hugo, owner of a most peculiar tea shop, promises to help him cross over, Wallace reluctantly accepts the truth. Yet even in death, he refuses to abandon his life - even though Wallace spent all of it working, correcting colleagues and hectoring employees. He'd had no time for frivolities like fun and friends. But as Wallace drinks tea with Hugo and talks to his customers, he wonders if he was missing something. The feeling grows as he shares jokes with the resident ghost, manifests embarrassing footwear and notices the stars. So when he's given one week to pass through the door to the other side, Wallace sets about living a lifetime in just seven days. Fans of A Man Called Ove and The Good Place will fall for this queer love story by TJ Klune. Praise for TJ Klune's The House in the Cerulean Sea: 'I loved it. It is like being wrapped up in a big gay blanket. Simply perfect.' - V. E. Schwab, no.1 New York Times bestselling author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue 'A modern fairy tale about learning your true nature and what you love and will protect. It's a beautiful book.' - Charlaine Harris, no.1 New York Times bestselling author '1984 meets The Umbrella Academy with a pinch of Douglas Adams thrown in. Touching, tender, and truly delightful.' - Gail Carriger, New York Times bestselling author of Soulless 'A witty, wholesome fantasy that's likely to cause heart-swelling.' - The Washington Post
