This is another outstanding novel by Lisa Jewell who never fails to produce a piece of work that hooks you from the start, and keeps you guessing all the way through. The vast array of characters slowly develop as the novel moves forward, and at the same time your opinion of them begins to change.
Saffyre Maddox is ‘the invisible girl’ through choice. She doesn’t want to stand out or be noticed, especially by boys. Saffyre is still trying to come to terms with a traumatic event that happened when she was a child and with the help of her therapist, Rowan she thinks she is starting to move on.
Owen Pick lives opposite Rowan and his family and he also feels invisible, but not through choice. Living with his aunt and struggling with issues at work, he looks for support online with a group of men in a similar situation.
When events bring these people together, judgements are made based on appearances that aren’t entirely accurate, and the fallout for some is devastating.
Despite the gripping storyline, well developed characters and fast pace of the book there is also an important message.. Don’t judge people on appearances and don’t assume everyone has the same background and experiences as you. Be kind and non judgemental; you don’t know the kind of issues people are dealing with and trying to escape from.
I think this novel will stay with me for a long time and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

I have loved everything Lisa has written and was so pleased to get this one in advance! Another brilliant novel, delves right into the story. I like all the different person perspectives too. Lisa is excellent at creating realistic characters; rounded yet flawed! I’m only sad I’ve finished it now!

I was thrilled to get a preview copy of the latest novel by Lisa Jewell as I am a big fan of her thrillers. Her stories are always excellent and Invisible Girl is no exception. Saffyre is a seventeen year old girl who has been through a lot of hardships. When she disappears, fingers are pointed at the 33 year old man who is always seen as a bit 'odd'. With each chapter told from a different perspective, this book is full of twists and turns and I was left guessing until the very end. Totally gripping, I would thoroughly recommend this.

Another corker from Lisa Jewell - I have been a fan since the Ralph's Party days and I don't think I've been disappointed yet.

It's no secret that I'm a fan of a first person narration and this is a great one. I've read a number of newer books that involves incels as protagonists - and its an interesting slant.

Enjoyed this book and raced through it in a couple of days - would recommend!
