Reading the back, I still couldn't decide how much I'd like the story, but the guy at the counter said it was really great and reccommended it so I cast my doubts aside. I've enjoyed book one of this series very much. To me, it leads up a lot to the next books in the series--setting the stage, introducing the characters, their dreams, some mysteries and a few explanations. Sey is a fairly normal 16 year old girl with a famous author and not very "motherly" mom who decides to up and move one day, having Sey stay with another family--that turns out to be quite a bizarre household with Hali, the daughter, pretending to be a guy named Terri for the mom's benefit. As the story goes along, you get a feel for Sey's closest friends lives as well as those of the family she's staying with. The more I read the series, the more I adore it. I love Sey's character, their situations, a guy who hangs out with the rougher crowd and has quite a... unique family background. There's romance, funny moments, mysteries, and dreams in this story not to mention very nice artwork. I highly reccommend it.

Just like romantic comedy films, they use the same story line over, and over, and over again...Why bother with this one and just read one of the other thousand mangas just like it????... Honestly. How many times are they going to be able to use this SAME plot, without anybody noticing anything?! So, lets see...Interesting story? NO! Likeable Charectors? None here! :) Entertaining? Not at All!!!! ...

Volume 3 was released over a year ago and there has not been a release since. I have heard that the company the author worked for went out of business; but regardless of whether that is true there is no information about a 4th volume on TP's site and the series definitely did not conclude at volume 3. Just in case I would not recommend buying it until another volume comes out, otherwise prepare to be disappointed when you are left hanging.

Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: invu Review: This book is rather excellent for anyone whose interest are for light-hearted romantic comedic pieces but finds collecting series that run on for 10 to 15 plus volumes at $14 a pop is hard on the wallet. If I am not mistaken, I.N.V.U. has four volumes which don’t mean the plot is lacking. After reading the first 3 volumes I am definitely looking forward to the forth. I have enjoyed the series so far because it hasn't turned out as "soap-opera~ish" as Peach Girl has been. I.N.V.U doesn't have the over exaggerated love-triangle that is super imposed onto love-triangle and so-on and so-on.... which is good because that can get tiresome. The characters are beautifully drawn though super tall and very lean :/ Don't get me wrong, there are love-triangles in this one! Other books I recommend: Mars, Peach Girl, Kare Kano

At first I resisted, because it sounded ridiculous, but finally I caved and bought it. I'm glad I did. The art is really nice, although different from other styles I've seen. I'm really interested in what happens between the various couples. It sucks you in. It doesn't have superheroes or magical girls. Just a bunch of fairly normal girls and their relationships. I highly recommend it. It's not the most addictive manga I've ever read, but it's very close.

I've had a chance to read up to the 3rd volume, and though I am just as big of a fan of cliffhangers as the next person, each of the three volumes literally had me on the edge of my seat. I'm still waiting on word for the release date for v4. It's common for most shoujo manga have a very soap-opera feel, and INVU is no different. What I enjoyed about this series isn't necessarily the original storyline, but rather, the way that the creator staggered several storylines of each of the characters, giving the readers small glimpses here and there of each of their lives, all the while keeping the continuity intact. From the sheer number of characters to the segues to the "coincidental" situations the characters find themselves in, I wouldn't be surprised if INVU is incarnated as a live-drama sometime in the future. In the world of INVU, everybody knows each other directly or indirectly through a friend, family member or other such degree. Would I recommend this title? Yes, most definitely. The characters are all very engaging and you cannot help but be drawn in to their stories and their dreams. The art is pretty, and I'm rather impressed with the fashion choices the artist Kim Kang Won creates for the characters. It's not as edgy as Paradise Kiss, but it's still good.
