Book Reviews of When You Don't See Me

Book Review: Humorous and Quirky
Summary: 3 Stars

I read this book fairly quickly, and its an ok book. I only wish the author dwelled more on the details when he needed to, rather than just skipping over an entire event, in just two sentences. I also wish the book put more emphasis on why the main character feels invisible even though he's a good looking, funny, intelligent, guy with a lot of friends, and people that love him....

Summary of When You Don't See Me

Being Invisible Is Nick Dunill's M.O.

For nineteen years, he's been "the one who disappears" to his disapproving, Midwestern family. And now in New York City, a metropolis of anonymity built on not making eye contact, he feels right at home. Walking the streets of the Village, sneaking into dive bars, cleaning apartments, and trying to co-exist in a cramped apartment with his three roommates, Nick's trying to find his way without doing anything to put his wounded heart at risk, all the while wondering, "Does anything last?"

But Nick's vanishing act is about to be challenged in ways he never dreamed. Little by little, he's being forced into the land of the living--into relationships and opportunities, love and sex, truth and acceptance, into the heartbreaking secrets of his past and the hopeful chances of his future. And the more visible Nick becomes, the more he realizes that in life and love, disappearing is not an option...

"A book to get lost in."-Bay Area Reporter on Someone Like You
