5.0 out of 5 stars Muy Caliente, May 16, 2009

By	Shalonda - See all my reviews

What more can I say than WOW?!? Before reading this one, I was expecting a unique story that would captivate my attention. Kelly Parra totally exceeded my (already high) expectations and knocked my socks off!

As I stated before, I tend to read realistic fiction books, so I was out of my comfort zone with this one, but I loved every minute of it. While most readers probably don't see warning signs on the chests of others, I feel that everyone can somehow relate to Kara--whether it be due to the death of a loved one, conflicts with parents, or falling in love for the first time.

In YA lit, diversity is increasing, yet still has a way to go. Kelly Parra did an excellent job of incorporating diverse characters and settings, without being at all stereotypical.

Invisible Touch was action-packed, due to its many twists and turns. In addition, Parra mixed suspense, mystery, and romance (one of my favorite elements) into one fantastic story!

By	anne (the bleak midwest) - See all my reviews

Kelly Parra knows teenagers and with INVISIBLE TOUCH she once again demonstrates her skill at creating realistic characters in realistic settings. INVISIBLE TOUCH is a page-turning blend of romance, realism, life, death, and secret psychic powers. A perfectly magical October read!

5.0 out of 5 stars The new voice in YA is back with another great book, October 13, 2008

By	D. L. Snell "Dianna Love" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

INVISIBLE TOUCH is the brilliant second story from new comer Kelly Parra. She continues to create sharply-drawn characters with emotional depth and exciting plots that appeal to both mature teens and adults. Between the fast-paced mystery loaded with twists and the emotional pull between interesting bi-cultural characters you'll be up all night flipping pages. Kelly's dynamic voice stands out and shines in the growing YA market.
