Invisible
Published February 2nd 2018 by Nube de tinta, Paperback 296 pages
Emotiva, conmovedora, diferente... Invisible narra, a través de los ojos de un niño, una historia que podría ser la de cualquiera de nosotros.
¿Quién no ha deseado alguna vez ser invisible?
¿Quién no ha deseado alguna vez dejar de serlo?
El problema es que nunca he llegado a controlar bien ese poder:
A veces, cuando más ganas tenía de ser invisible, era cuando más gente me veía, y en cambio, cuando deseaba que todos me vieran, era cuando a mi cuerpo le daba por desaparecer.

100% recomendable
I strongly advise everyone to read this at least once in their life. Dont know if its translated into other languages, i hope so because the themes this book talks about are SO IMPORTANT in sooo many levels!! Bullying is very present in teenagers and high school, even though we don't see it that often because its INVISIBLE. The worst of all is, that its invisible to everyone else (or everyone else decides to do nothing about it and make it invisible).
Amazingly written and very gripping.
10 out of 5 stars if I could😍❤️

I really enjoyed this book. It traps you in from the first page because of how it's written. On the first page you're introduced to the present, and the timeline continues. Many of the chapters switch back and forth between the point of view of different characters. Then once the book gets to a certain point, you're introduced to the past that lead up to the present, and the timeline continued. The story continues until you arrive at "the present" that happens right before the first 'present' that we are introduced to in the book.
There were a few "slow" parts to this book, or rather, parts that I felt were a little redundant. But I'm glad that I picked the book back up and continued to read it.
In the end, I was left with so many questions but it was not a problem because the book is realistic enough for me to think of the potential consequences of it all. It gave me an opportunity to reflect, so I believe that the ending was appropriate.

[This book deals with a subject matter that might be hard for some people to deal with. There are a lot of scenes that describe in detail how a character is being bullied. I do think the subject matter is appropriate for preteens and older individuals. Kids and adults alike would enjoy this book. (hide spoiler)]★★★★½

This one is hard. It was not at all as I expected it would be. It got me thinking a lot.
It is about bullying at school and it is so well explained with all the metaphors, you actually think about these things happening in a daily basis that is difficult not to cry....
I totally reccomend it with no doubt. No matter the age you are, you are going to love this book.

It's a beautiful book that teaches you a lot about life and bullying. All the world should read this book to understand the meaning of bullying and how it can be so dangerous.
Even though it has approximately 300 pages, I finished it in 2 days, so it's easy to read.
Some schools make this book mandatory, so everyone has to read it. I consider that this must be for all schools in the world, in specific, the years when people are teenagers between 12-18 years old. However, everyone can read it, and I recommend doing that.
Maybe, it should be read from the age of 12, as some parts have a double sense, so a child cannot understand the deep meaning of the chapter.

This book was pretty hard to read for 2 reasons: because the topic is so real and difficult and because it is written in a way that sometimes you don’t know who is talking and understand things only from the context.
It’s a good book, makes you think a lot and relate to many things but it’s not a light read

This was an intriguing novel as it started off by explaining the various superpowers that a child has and then later one learns the deeper meaning of these superpowers. It wasn't the most masterfully written novel, but it was still a good story. Overall I enjoyed this novel (plus it helped me to improve upon my Spanish reading comprehension skills) this is why I rated it 4 stars.

An amazing book. It shows the perspective of the bullied child and his innocent attempt to make himself invisible because his colleagues make his life miserable in and outside the school. Very recommended for children, teenagers and also adults, like me.
