Thank you so much Antoinette.

Thank you Rosemary.
Thanks for your review Georgia. I never related visibility with aspects like the poverty and wealth in the world, thanks again.

Invisibility is something I've desired and explore in my memoir of growing up different in a small, seemingly perfect, American town. So, it's close to my heart, MAG. Glad to be of help.
I prefer GK Chesterton and his worldview.
Not to say HG Wells stuff is not worth pondering. I have Outline of History on my shelf and have had for some time. Just haven't read it.

Imagine if Goodreads required us all to confess what books sit unread on our shelves. That would be revealing. Ok, Davy. You gave me yours. I'll confess to one of mine. It's Clarissa by Samuel Richardson.

You're thinking of Clarice. My Clarissa is scary in other ways and was a British film with Saskia Wickham and Sean Bean.
I was joking. I looked at Claissa on Goodreads because I had never heard of it.
Thanks for expanding my horizons.
I don't think I will read it though, I mostly go with non-fiction with just a light sprinkling of the classics.

Definitely not light. I'd say it weighs a kilo.
2.2 pounds. I have read War and Peace 2x.
Only book I've ever read twice.

I'm a serial re-reader. I keep going back to what I love.
"Sometimes, going unnoticed would be nice. Or just easier. Ask those who have wished they could cover themselves from head to toe, put a paper bag over their heads, or worse, slash their fine profile. They'd like at times to be invisible."
I admit I've enjoyed growing older and less visible for many reasons, not least of which is dancing (!) a bit in the street without anyone noticing. A lovely review as always, Georgia.

Martha and the Vandellas's song Dancing in the Street is playing in my head since reading your comment, Yules. Look out neighbors!
Excellent review, Georgia. I've to read Wells someday, thanks for sharing it :)

It's plot driven, sometimes ridiculously, yet spurs thought that goes beyond the story, Gaurav. Works in many ways and it's short!
