 Lisa Jewell’s suburban, domestic thrillers are 👌🏽 (chef’s kiss) in my opinion, and Invisible Girl is no different. Perspectives shift between a girl who goes missing, the wife of the missing girl’s therapist, and a neighbor guy who everyone thinks is creepy and weird. There’s a man assaulting women in the neighborhood. Did he take the girl? Who is the attacker? This one has a bit of a slower start compared to her others like Watching You, but I still loved it. (4.5 ⭐️)
