Interpretation Supposing Books She Is Not Invisible
The feeling that coincidences give us tells us they mean something... But what? What do they mean? LAURETH PEAK'S father has taught her to look for recurring events, patterns, and numbers - a skill at which she's remarkably talented. When he goes missing while researching coincidence for a new book, Laureth and her younger brother fly from London to New York and must unravel a series of cryptic messages to find him. The complication: Laureth is blind. Reliant on her other senses and on her brother to survive, Laureth finds that rescuing her father will take all her skill at spotting the extraordinary, and sometimes dangerous, connections in a world full of darkness.Rating Based On Books She Is Not Invisible

I had no idea how thought-provoking She Is Not Invisible by Marcus Sedgwick would be or how much I would enjoy this YA read! I love the world building and descriptions of people and places. Never have I been able to mentally picture a scene through only sound, smell and feel, but thanks to Laureth, the narrator and main character, I am amazed at how clearly I could be in the moment. Laureth is a blind sixteen-year-old who sets out on a mission to find her missing father with her six-year-old3.5 StarsWhy is it that sometimes you forget just how much you love someone until theyre gone? Why are we so stupid? Shouldnt we always remember that the people we love are more important to us than anything else?This book doesnt mess around. We bump right into big questions and big trouble!Laureth Peak fears her father may be in danger, so she sets off to find him with her little brother, Benjamin. And Stan tooBenjamins stuffed animal raven. :) This is a cross the oceanfrom London to New
She Is Not Invisible is a triumph of characterization, atmosphere, setting, suspense and dialogue. The only thing lacking, as we get into the meat of the narrative, is the plot itself. At 216 pages total, you spend the whole book trying to figure out whats really going on. When the reveal comes, youre like, Eh, thats all it is? None of this really even had to happen. Oh well, at least its over already. And, yeah, in instant hindsight, you can figure out why it all had to happen (view spoiler)
This one is powerful in a quiet way. Most people commonly talks about rape, murder, vengeance and a lot more usual topics we usually see in a book. But what I love about this book is that, it shows us how a blind person perceives the world. I rarely read about blind people because it's rare to find a fiction novel about blind people. This book teaches me a lot of things. Not just about how people treats about blind person but about the things we usually take for granted.The ending, that a lot
I really loved Laurith's perspective and the system she and Benjamin created to communicate was fascinating! But, you really read a thriller for the ending. The big twist is what makes or breaks a book like this, and for me, it was very anticlimactic.(view spoiler)[ Basically, some guys on a plane overheard her dad saying his book was worth gold and diamonds, they thought he meant REAL gold and diamonds, so they decided they needed to steal them. They mugged him and left him stranded (which is
"Love is a funny thing, and once again I really don't mean it's amusing. I mean it's odd. Strange. Weird. There was a time not so long ago, because I can remember it, when Mum and Dad loved each other. It was obvious, in the things that they did, and the way they were, and the way they called each other 'honey'." In the end of 2013, I came up to finding a list on Buzzfeed that showed the top twenty books that will sure be hits of 2014. This one was actually on it, and I've been wanting to read
Clever and thought-provoking, and an interesting change of pace for an author mostly known for dark, gothic stories. (It's so nice to see the humorous, pleasant side we've gotten to know through his interviews!)While the ending was a bit less complex than I expected, I love everything I've read by this author and this book is no exception.Review to come.
