If You Could See the Sun

If You Could See the Sun
If You Could See the Sun

Sharp YA mystery with invisible outsider stakes

This is such a fun hooky read if you like school drama with a darker edge. Alice’s invisibility feels like the perfect metaphor for class, pressure, and not fitting in, and the story turns that into something tense, clever, and emotionally sharp. It’s the kind of book that feels juicy with secrets, but still leaves you thinking about identity, ambition, and what survival can cost.

Description

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