Author Ginny Yttrup did a great job in her book Invisible. This is the first story I have ever read in this unique writing style. Yttrup wrote a flowing story from the first person view point of 4 different people. The reader gets a glimpse into the minds of the four main characters, Ellyn, Sabina, Twila and Miles. I loved the way I could feel the story flowing even though the character telling the story changed.
I enjoyed the entire book, and when I put down the book after finishing it I debated picking it up and starting all over. The book itself deals with lots of issues that many people face today: loneliness, depression, body image issues and many more. The main characters were relatable and loveable. I enjoyed reading each story (but Ellyns story might be my favorite). It was an interesting experience reading from the varying minds of the characters, one that I would love to have again quite soon. Invisible made it on my read yearly list (which isn't that long!)
The story of a large chef, a widower doctor, a woman struggling with depression and a girl who is starving as they struggle to find God is what invisible is all about, and Yttrup does an excellent job on the story. I would rate this book a 5 out of 5!

A Matter of Trust
Whiel did great in her latest book A Matter of Trust. The murder mystery begins and in the first chapter there is already an unexpected twist. As the story continues to unfold the reader is taken around twist and turns in the plot line. I am excited for the next book in the Mia Quinn series to come out.
The main character is a district attorney named Mia Quinn. She has a son and daughter, and her husband passed away recently. While trying to hold together the family she has left and also maintain some order Mia works two jobs, one as a district attorney, the other at a local college teaching law students. In the midst of all this chaos Mia is put on the case of a brutal murder of another district attorney.
Whiel wrote an excellent story including family struggle, murder and the chance of romance. I enjoyed reading this story and will continue to read Whiel's books in the future. On a scale of 1 to 5 I would rate this book 4. It was excellently written and I look forward to the next book from Whiel.
