A pre-birth prophecy, a contrarian relationship to fear that pushes her toward her deepest discomforts, and years spent studying both the stars and the greatest monsters of our imaginations alike. 
These aren't the notes of a fictional character - this is the lore of V.E Schwab herself!  

In this incredibly candid interview, she tells Luke all about it, along with illuminating insights into her writing philosophy and her most loved works, including:
How The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue contains her most personal character ever (that's not Addie!)
How Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil explores not only her favourite monster, but one of her favourite themes
 How she had the end to her her upcoming novel Victorious, the finale in her Villains Trilogy, from the very start - and exactly what we can expect from it.
