Calling Invisible Women by Jeanne Ray
3.0
I have always had a bad habit of picking up donated and used books at the public library where I worked. I still do it as a patron. They only cost a little and I never know when I might run out of reading material. The facts that my shelves are full, that I have lots of books on my Kindle and that the electronic library is open 24 hours has not changed this pattern. I just don't want to face a place where I have nothing to read.
So this novel is one of those items that I picked up along the way. I am guessing I was sucked in my the cover. The dog looks a lot like a Cairn terrier and I love them. (It turns out it is a Cairn.)
I have no good reason for deciding to read this next. I am in the middle of 18 other books, but this was what I wanted. I found Ray's story distracting and entertaining. Although it is not very plausible, it is a lot of fun.
Ray has picked a good group to make invisible - middle-aged women. How many of us have felt invisible at one time or another. How the women have gotten to be invisible and their solution is the main theme of the book.
I recommend this book to anyone who has ever felt a bit invisible, a bit ignored. Hopefully it will help you laugh at your predicament.
