- l***t (35)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufOverall, happy as a clam. :) The book jacket had two small imperfections, which was less than ideal when listed as "new", but both were visible in the photos before buying. And in my case, I was removing the jacket anyway, so it didn't bother me. Received what I wanted and expected for a good price. Beautiful cover. Quick shipping and nicely wrapped/packaged. No complaints! Would recommend this seller.Invisible Life of Addie Larue, Special Edition by V. E. Schwab (2021, Hardcover) (Nr. 127115440264)
