Social Creature
by Tara Isabella Burton
Are you dependent on Social media... (6/21/2018)
I cannot compare this story to Gone Girl. I dislike the use of that type comparison. This is not really an original plot, it has been done before, but if you can restrain your disbelief, Burton will carry you all the way to the end.

This story is a story of nonsense, but it is a story that wraps you in it's arms and swallows you up. There is the constant push to find out how it all ends. Tara Isabella Burton is a new author to me, albeit one I will read more of. She writes strong characters, with unbelievable plots to follow, however you fall under her spell and float on her wave all the way to the end of the story. You become the invisible flotsam, just like Louise.

Louise Wilson is hard working - hard working that is until she falls in with Livinia Williams, spoiled little rich party girl, who is only out for herself. Lavinia introduces Louise to the glam and glitter of life. Then Lavinia dies.

Now what happens? What does Louise do? Just how invisible can a person become?
