I brought this book because I went to the same college as Louise, but I am glad that I did as it was a thoroughly good read. I am 27 going on 12 and do read a lot of childrens books and feel that both children and adults alike will enjoy this book. She manages to tackle important issues like self esteem and bullying without being patronising and does so in a quirky amusing way. Her great sense of humour shines through in 'The Invisible Friend', in fact I would say that she is the next Lemony Snicket instead of J.K Rowling. As a big Lemony Snicket fan, I mean that as a complement. Nice one Lou, keep up the good work and look forward to the next book.
