She ends up at a place known as The Midnight Library where she has the chance to see how her life would look differently if she made one different decision. The story follows Nora after she decides to end her life. But what about those small ones that go unnoticed all of the time? That’s exactly what The Midnight Library explores, through the main protagonist Nora Seed. It’s easy to get caught up in the big decisions and moments in life. I loved this book so much and highly recommend it to anyone that might underestimate the importance of thinking on the bright side of life, and appreciating what you have. Of course, I am referring to the multi-award-winning novel from Matt Haig, The Midnight Library. Next on my list is a book that I consider to be the most like The Invisible Life of Addie Larue because it also follows the coming-of-age story of a lone female protagonist as she grapples with understanding life and death. Mixing magic and time travel, together with deep, complex characters and a sprinkle of romance is a recipe for an other-worldly book similar to The Invisible Life of Addie Larue, which A Darker Shade Of Magic completely is. You’re not going to find anything like it, anywhere. What’s so amazing about this novel is how original the story is. Joining forces and using magic along the way, they need to stay alive to stand any chance of saving their city. She saved Kell from a dangerous enemy and soon after, an evil force threatens the existence of all of the versions of London. In between performances, he meets a pick-pocket in ‘Grey’ London named Delilah, after being a victim of said thief. Naturally, Kell can travel between four parallel worlds of London, called Grey, White Red, and Black London. Set in 18th-century London, we take a peek into the life of a wonderful magician named Kell. The second book on the list by Victoria Schwab that I recommend you read after is called A Darker Shade Of Magic. It’s safe to say, Schwab has written a superb fast-paced novel with tonnes of haunting atmosphere and a thrilling ending. In the creepy underground of the catacombs, Cassidy awakens a haunting spirit capable of creating terror for the Parisian people.Īs a ghost hunter, she has to stop this haunting spirit from growing stronger, enlisting help from her friends along the way. It was written by the super talented, NY Times best-selling author Victoria Schwab.Ĭassidy Blake’s parents are filming a TV show about haunted cities so naturally, they’ve come to the beautiful city of Paris, famous for its underbelly of skulls, bones, and supposedly evil spirits. So, continuing with the spooky theme is the sequel to the incredible City of Ghosts, Tunnel of Bones is the Goodreads Choice Nominee for Middle Grade and Children’s Books in 2019. You’ll likely have heard of my next suggestion as it’s written by the same author as The Invisible Life of Addie Larue, but what better to read next than something by the same person? I also love how both authors create characters that are so relatable, I feel like I’m reading about my best friend. While it’s not quite similar to The Invisible Life of Addie Larue in terms of storyline, the writing style between Cassandra Clare and V. That is until they find out they have unique magical abilities that can be used to free the city and become the hero everyone needs. However, her new life is soon torn apart as a spate of demon attacks terrorizes the streets of London. Tantalizingly gripping from the very start, Chain of Gold is set in Edwardian London and follows the children of a previous Cassie Clare series, The Infernal Devices (which is also outstanding by the way).Ĭordelia Carstairs, a warrior trained from an early age to battle demons, is drawn into a life of luxury with her childhood friends.
