Things Not Seen By Andrew Clements
This quarter I read the book Things Not Seen by Andrew Clements. Bobby Phillips, a fifteen year old boy was an average kid until one morning, he woke up and couldn't see himself. He was invisible!! There doesn’t seem to be any reasons or explanations on why this had happened. Bobby meets a blind girl named Alicia. They build a large bond and become very close with each other. Time is running out to figure out what happened to Bobby and how to get him back to normal. Back to being seen again.
I think that this was a fantastic book!!! I really enjoyed reading it and I could never put it down. I loved this book because it has so many different emotions involved in it. I also really liked how the author jumped straight into the book. Right when

    I think it was powerful because Aneta was an orphan and didn't have much but then she opt her family and she had such a big heart and loved Wink so much. At first I thought that I wouldn't like this book and it toulk me forever to get through the first couple chapters.

    I liked this novel very much because it shows how precious life is, and that drinking and driving is NEVER a good idea. The story makes me realize that with maturity, comes difficult choices, and you must always be wise. Things like this happen every day and people always think, “Oh it won’t happen to me,” but you never know. I would recommend this book to my friends because I think the story line would influence their choices greatly. I think it would give them a better perspective on making good…

    My initial response once I read the first third of the book was that I am really going to enjoy it. I thought that because it has a very strong plot which makes it very interesting for me to read. I like how the author gets right to the point, but still makes you think about what is going on in the novel. Another thing that made me think it will be a good book is that it is very realistic so I can relate to what’s happening and really understand the things going on.…

    The Protagonist of the book is Griffin, also known as The Invisible Man. He can’t get along with anyone in the society before and after becoming invisible. At the end of the story, the invisible man turns visible. It is said that he is a young man around his thirties with pale white hair of albinism and owns a pair of eyes that were like garnets. Though the story, Griffin doesn’t change at all. He was full of selfishness and greediness though the whole story, which caused him to…

    It had humor, real life events, sadness, and suspense. I would most definitely recommend this novel to someone because although it’s very long, you won’t want to stop reading it. This book will make you wonder, cry, even laugh. It’s a book that I think had great meaning and was put together very well. In my opinion, there is no flaws about this book except how long it is.…

    I enjoyed this book thoroughly and always kept me intrigued until the end. It had small twists in it that were rather easy to interpret but it was also very interesting. I don’t particularly relate to this book, although situations that I’ve endured have changed my perspective on life, in a positive aspect, and made me unprejudiced and versatile and not so…

    I like how its really intense and calming and also some parts funny. I like how it talks about teen pregnancy because some young teens will want to get pregnant at such a young age and if they read this book it may help them change their mind and wait till they get older, thats very important to me. I really like the chapter where Bobby was talking about the wall when he was trying to get everything back in place and try to see who he really was, i thought that part was really good. I like how it goes back and fourth for the chapters like then and now, it makes you want to read more because in one chapter it tells you really good information and you just want to read even more till the…

    Honestly, at first, when I was reading the book, I was so confused and bored out of my mind. But then, you get closer and closer to the ending where you want to keep reading to figure out what happens next and all the pieces just seem to add up together. Therefore, once again, I fully recommend…

    I thought the writer had a really good flow of style and expressed herself really well, especially with the storyline. It was a great story overall, the writer was very graphic with her words and it kind of made me feel like I was there re-living that moment with her. Her style was cool and she built up the story with conflict. The suspense was awesome because she made it feel like it was going to be good from the start to the end, but then I felt the tension when things became dark and muggy. The argumentation was written well and the story ended on a good note. The writer wrote for her people and you could literally…
