About this listen

 "Academic rivals portrayed to perfection… An all-time top favorite." —Chloe Gong, #1 New York Times bestselling author of These Violent Delights and Our Violent Ends

"Utterly unique, thought-provoking, and wonderfully written." —Gloria Chao, author of American Panda and Rent a Boyfriend

In this genre-bending , speculative YA debut, a Chinese American girl monetizes her strange new invisibility powers by discovering and selling her wealthy classmates’ most scandalous secrets.

Alice Sun has always felt invisible at her elite Beijing international boarding school, where she’s the only scholarship student among China’s most rich and influential teens. But then she starts uncontrollably turning invisible—actually invisible.

When her parents drop the news that they can no longer afford her tuition, even with the scholarship, Alice hatches a plan to monetize her strange new power—she’ll discover the scandalous secrets her classmates want to know, for a price.

But as the tasks escalate from petty scandals to actual crimes, Alice must decide if it’s worth losing her conscience—or even her life. Coming of Age Difficult Situations Fiction Literature & Fiction Multicultural Racism & Discrimination Science Fiction & Fantasy Discrimination China Fantasy

The story as a whole was pretty good, but what really made this one special was the narration! I loved the way the characters were all brought to life. It was so easy to imagine the characters and scenes, it was all so fluid.
The writing itself was really well done, and I thoroughly enjoyed listening! I would definitely recommend this one.
A simple story, with excellent character development and an intriguing premise.

Amazing narration

I love the academic rivals to lovers, I love the magical realism. It's so cute and I love them so much it makes me so happy. Also I like the main character and how the 3rd act conflict doesn't involve Henry and Alices relationship in fact I think it just strengthens it. I recommend this so hard it's so good

Cute
