QUALITY
Author Marcus Sedgwick has created a unique and well-constructed story. From the descriptions of how blind Laureth operates in the world ("I learned to turn my head towards whoever is speaking; I learned to hold my hand out to greet people ... I learned to do a thousand things to help sighted people simply talk to me.") to her father's research into theories about coincidences, SHE IS NOT INVISIBLE is a book that will get readers thinking and forming their own opinions about luck and fate.
Even after racing through the fast-paced, short mystery, fans will enjoy searching back through the book to see what instances of her father's special number (354) they can find cleverly embedded in the text.
