All My Friends Are Invisible: the inspirational childhood memoir

Product Information

Manic Pixie Dream Girl: Jonathan Joly is a non-gender-conforming version of this, so doesn't fit the trope's rarer noted "Manic Pixie Dream Guy" quite either, but rather an eccentric, fun-loving person who meets neither gender binary definition exactly. On finishing school, he floated from one career path to the next, eventually landing at university to study multimedia. People who may have enjoyed the presentation of him as an ordinary husband and father will be fascinated to see this aspect of his personality, one that was repressed for much of his life but has become visible to all. It is clear that this book is a poor attempt to gain attention and rekindle his failing and exploitative career. The story gave me a very vivid picture of what Jonathan thoughts and feelings were at different stages and times in his life and how he felt about his family-in particular his father.

If you can't relate to his story you should read and share it anyway because it might help someone else! I find this book extremely demeaning and a complete insult to those who are genuinely struggling with mental health issues. I will not go into the specifics but encouraging his fans to accept these kind of hallucinations is truly worrying.

The 'why' is missing from this book, which leaves its heart lacking (along with a believable narrative structure and decent writing).

There are also points in the book where the writing changes tense and then flips back with no warning. One minute it was describing random details about Ireland, the next it was retelling a story of child abuse and then suddenly it’d move on to some fantastical story about a make believe world which was described so vividly it was jarring with the rest of the narrative. All My Friends Are Invisible deals with themes of psychology, queerness, the digital gig economy, fatherhood, gender identity and conservative social norms. He remembers every outfit he was wearing, every food he ate, and every conversation he had within 30 years. However, I'm glad the author has spoken about something that clearly has affected his life in a very negative way, and I hope it has given him the peace he needs from the experience.We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. Born in Dublin, Jonathan is a gifted filmmaker and storyteller, and is dedicated to making the lives of others better, particularly those who feel misunderstood or alone in the world. It's worth noting that a number of the unverified reviews will be those notoriously hinging their life on bringing down Jonathan and his family by any means possible. The structure of the book needs editing honestly it needs more explanation because it just comes across kid hiding from the world with invisible friends due to abuse.
