Minding our Mortality: Book Club
Event description
“Minding our Mortality” [MoM] events by Here to Honor provide opportunities for contemplative thought and conversation—designated time and space for considering our impermanence in ways that tap into our deepest human longings and shape how we face our finitude.
For our next Book Club gathering, we will be discussing The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab.
A brief description of this fiction read is excerpted from Goodreads below:
France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets.
Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world.
But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.
This book is available via our Bookshop storefront. Purchasing from Bookshop.org supports local bookstores as well as Here to Honor.
