In this episode, we discuss Part Three of V.E. Schwab’s The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, get deep into the text, discuss red flags on first dates, wonder about drives Addie back to Villon, and consider again the dreams that feed defiance.
Next week, we continue our reading with Parts Four and Five.
