Now this is a real psychological treat! My mind has twisted one way and then the other .. Saffyre Maddox is a young woman surrounded by a loving family, but one by one they are diminishing. Outwardly confident, she has clear memories of what happened to her as a ten-year old and there is no doubt it affects her to this day. Owen Pick, on the other hand, has little love in his life and society doesn't give him the same options it offers to Saffyre. But should we all judge by what we see? Definitely a novel which will make you think! How many times have you seen an accused person on tv and thought 'look at him, definitely guilty' without digging into the facts? This is a realistic story with plenty of food for thought. I had no idea who was guilty due to the very clever writing. Lisa Jewell's novels are such a treat to read! There is so much happening that the reader is kept on their toes and at one point I wasn't entirely sure who had done what - and to who! Gripping, exiting and offering a wonderful sense of satisfaction when the final page is reached, I loved everything about this one and cannot recommend it highly enough. Without a doubt, a full five star read!

This book was a strange one... Took me quite a long time to actually get into it to begin with as quite a few different characters each chapter focusing on one or the other so it took me a while to get used to reading this way and get a feel of each character... I got halfway through though and really started to get into it... All the chapters and people cleverly slotted together towards the end and it all ended great with no loose ends... Completely unexpected ending... An enjoyable read if you have the patience to wait till your properly into the story... Came together to well the 2nd half to give just a 3star and sadly not an option for 3.5 so here it is 4 x stars from me... 🌟🌟🌟🌟🤗👍

Anchored by a gripping prologue and fast-paced chapters with clear narrations, Invisible Girl ticks all the requirements of an excellent, compelling, shocking psychological thriller. Do not be discouraged with a slow start that establishes a core foundation between family dynamics and relationships between the characters, for the ending makes it completely worth it. The ending was something I read twice, with 'NO WAY" being verbally uttered. Thank you NetGalley and Random House UK for the eARC.
