Book Review- "Invisible" by Jeanne Bannon

"Lola?" he whispers. "You there? It‘s okay, I‘ll just wait here ‘til you come back."


Let's face it, at some time in our lives we have all wished we could become invisible- even if just for a moment.  Well, Lola CAN.  "Invisible" by Jeanne Bannon tells the story of high school senior Lola Savullo and her incredible ability.  Will Lola be able to learn to control when she disappears?

I loved this story, and even though it was written for young adults I felt like I could relate to Lola.  I guess some parts of high school never do change.  There will always be those who pick on others and make life miserable for some.  Lola, though, finds a way to get back at the bullies in her life.

You'll have to read "Invisible" to find out what happens, but I promise this is one read you won't regret.  I laughed, I was saddened, and there was one shocking part that was handled with finesse by the author and by Lola herself.  I am really glad I got to read this book and will be looking for others by Jeanne Bannon.
