Publisher's summary

Why me? As a fatherless child, your interpretation of society is a little different. You constantly feel incomplete when you see fathers on television, in the grocery store, and on social media. And no matter how much you try to voice your feelings, you steadily are sucked into life's woes. Perfection is the perfect way for you to mentally escape. Ultimately, you never deal with the trials of your childhood, leaving you to grow into a person that lacks confidence in your emotional voice.

Join Candice as she takes you on her journey of coming face-to-face with being a fatherless daughter, to living an amazing life filled with healing and wholeness. Candice's life-changing path will help you come to terms with who you truly are. Full of raw feelings, interesting twists, and a desperate plea for peace, Invisible Dad is the tool you need to transform your life into the best "you" you can be. This audiobook is what you've been looking for!

TLDR find bury your daddy issues in god

The Author has an all too relatable story. She summarizes well the pains of growing up fatherless. I think if you are someone trying to understand the deep hurt of someone else who has grown up fatherless, this is a good book for you.
However if you are a fatherless daughter and already know these pains, to me this book was just hearing those pains spoken by someone else. Ultimately the author's repeated advice is to find God. If you are a Christian, this book may help you find some healing. If you are not a Christian, it probably will not help you. I have read many Christian self help books and you kind of filter out the religion and hopefully take away some pearls of wisdom.
With this book, however, the only "pearl" is the author's relationship with God. If you are like myself, and have rejected that path - then this book does not hold much else for you other than to hear your pains echoed and perhaps not feel alone in the world.
That being said, thank you to the author for your willingness to be vulnerable. I wish you the best on your journey of healing! It is not an easy walk and we all need someone cheering in our corner.

I would recommend this book to young African American Christian women who seek peace from the void of an absent father.

Candice’s insight and view on healing from the absences of an earthly father through God’s unconditional love, is nothing short of amazing. This book opened my eyes to the peace of revealing your truths and letting go of the picture perfect world. The way she delivers the book makes me feel like I’m talking to a close friend who can relate to my feelings of anger, and abandonment. Thank you for changing my view on such an controversial issue Candice.

A Great Book for Christians with Invisible Dads

As a person who grew up fatherless her story was very similar to my own with the pains we went through and the anger we feel today. As someone who is not a Christian it didn’t help much because it was basically telling you to seek God as your father when you’re fatherless.

Wonderful!

Wonderful book, excellently written. Candice engages her readers with her calming voice while telling her story. Buying the audible version was 100% worth it.

Go Deep

Struggled to finish it. Felt kinda rushed and was looking for the author to go deeper at certain points.
