I absolutely adore @lisajewelluk books. This one has been no different, I did a very happy dance this morning when Netgalley gave me this one and I have completely devoured this one over the last few hours.
Another absolutely absolutely unputdownable and gripping novel by a fantastic author. I have tried several times (unsuccessfully) to guess the ending of this one.
Another absolute delight to read which is available August 2020. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have read Lisa Jewell novels before and this author has never let me down. Her writing is mesmerising. ‘Invisible Girls’ is just as good as the others.

The story revolves around Saffyre Maddox, who tries to be the “Invisible Girl’ and the ‘Fours’ family consisting of Cate (mum), Roan (dad), Josh and Georgia. The family are living, temporarily, in a flat opposite Owen Picks and a wide-open space next to the house he lives in with his aunt Tessie. This is in the leafy suburb of Hampstead.

Something nasty happened to Saffyre when she was ten years old and she took to self-harming so was assigned to attend a psychologist, which was Roan Fours. During this time Cate thought her husband was having an affair and this caused problems for the couple.

Saffyre is the link between all of the characters and as the story unfold there are lies, deceit, revenge and a sexual predator preying on the streets around Hampstead. This all comes to a head on valentine’s day and the intertwining of the relationships and plotlines intermingle with cunning and craft. Be careful when judging people by their appearance.

Another stunning ending.

Thank you to NetGalley, Random House UK, Cornerstone and Lisa Jewell for my ARC in return for my honest review.

Brilliant Read and highly recommended.

Lisa Jewell is a perfectionist of writing psychological thrillers which put you on the edge of your seat. Highly recommended.
Saffyre Maddox was ten something terrible happened and she's carried the pain of it around with her ever since. The man who she thought was going to heal her didn't, and now she hides from him, invisible in the shadows, learning his secrets; secrets she could use to blow his safe, cosy world apart.
Owen Pick is invisible too. He's thirty-three years old and he's never had a girlfriend, he's never even had a friend. Nobody sees him. Nobody cares about him.
I was hooked from the starting. If you want a perfect read them ho for this book.
Characters are of top level as in her other novels and narration is flawless.
Thanks to NetGalley and Random House UK Cornerstone for giving me an advance copy.

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!
