Bobby Phillips is an average fifteen-year-old boy. Until the morning he wakes up and can't see himself in the mirror. Not blind, not dreaming. Bobby is just plain invisible... There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to Bobby's new condition; even his dad the physicist can't figure it out. For Bobby that means no school, no friends, no life. He's a missing person. Then he meets Alicia. She's blind, and Bobby can't resist talking to her, trusting her. But people are starting to wonder where Bobby is. Bobby knows that his invisibility could have dangerous consequences for his family and that time is running out. He has to find out how to be seen again before it's too late.

Commentary Regarding Books Things Not Seen (Things #1)

This book surprises - the idea of an invisible boy seemed too far-fetched for a novel that would otherwise fit into the catagory of realistic fiction. But Clements finds a way, in the creation of Bobby's relationship with Alicia, to make this a story that digs deeper into other issues about invisibility. When will Bobby's parents stop ignoring him to see him for who he really is? Who sees Alicia for who she really is now that she's blind, and what can she now "see"? This was a good choice for

It's what I don't see.I look a second time, and then rub at the mirror again.I'm not there.That's what I'm saying.I'm. Not.

It never stopped being weird to me that the invisible teenager spends most of the book hanging around naked in public next to a girl he has a crush on.The other interesting detail that stuck with me: invisible poo only stays invisible for a little while. Does that count as a spoiler?

This book was super strange. I mean like really really really strange. Honestly the idea of going out into public naked so nobody sees floating clothes is a little disturbing. Despite the strangeness, I really loved Bobby and Alicia a lot, and I liked the overall story.

There are times in life that we might feel invisible to the world. For teenager Bobby Phillips, this is quite literal. Waking up one day and discovering that he cant be seen, he begins to question how this could have possibly happened. With the help of his parents, he tries to figure out just why he would suddenly disappear one day without cause. His parents keep his school in the dark as to Bobbys condition as they look for a cure. Bobby soon learns that being invisible isnt as fun or easy as

AH. I loved this book! Review to come.
