This book became such a 'famous' book in 2020. Everybody talked about it, this is a book you wil love 100% or will hate. So I was very curious about the story. At the beginning of this book, I was interested in the story, then there was a moment when it took a long time until it became good again. However, when I got true  the reading-'block' it became interesting again and the ending got me speachless. 

I do think the 'boring' part has so many words and so many lines in the story that probably hides a deeper story in it, which is desperate to be pulled apart, to be investigated apart. However, I probably excpected more or maybe I hoped a deeper meaning in the 'boring' part because I feel like the story should be more then only the ending.. If you know what I mean? 

I like the characters. Addie is a stubborn soul who would keep on living a endless life. However, she made a deal with the "devil" to live forever and free but she became invisible (in a specific way). Henry is a bookworm who doesn't know what to do with his life, and he was kind of depressed. The Devil (aka Luc) makes deals with desperate people who call for the God's but who are to late. The story itself was good, a part was boring but eventually it became good, even great! Some parts where difficult to read, because there were parts that jumped from 2014 to 200 years earlier, and for me it was difficult to read sometimes. I did like the book, it took a long time before it became really good but when you get to that part, I really think you would like this book.
