TuneOut 4/4/09 . chapter 1I thought this was absolutely adorable. The only nitpick is that you fleshed out Jack more. I'm not sure if he was just a friend or boyfriend. |
found.eventually 5/11/08 . chapter 1Hahahahahaahaha. What the hell. THE LAST TIME I WORE STRAWBERRY LIPBALM NOONE EVEN NOTICED, DAMN IT. But then again, that was with my.. uhm. family. Yeah. The story was straight to the point, really, but I was kinda confused about Jack. Who's he again? Some random schoolmate... A hot, self-obssessed jock... A quiet, talented musician... A straight, gorgeous enemy... A childhood friend? The one-shot might've been a lot better if it had some sort of story behind the two of them, you know? Your one-shots are short, but they're always a good read. Who said you're not a good author, hmm? |
faerie-gumdrops 5/7/08 . chapter 1Ah this is very short and sweet - and the summary is awesome. How nice would that be? Just to have some guy come up and kiss you like that? Okay...so in reality it might be a little odd (and haha Jack probably has cold-sore herpes now!), but it's a really cool idea. Ah I am forever the romantic, wishing that things like this happened all the time. Lemon lip balm also has a nice sound to it, alliteration is yummy. 'Why else would he be staring at my lips as if it were a soccer goal?' this was a brilliant line! Why is it that boys are all so obsessed with football? And I like how Jack just comes up, kisses her, says 'lemon. Nice' and leaves - it kind of makes the whole moment more passionate and exciting. She should try passionfruit flavour. That is my favourite - I wear it just because I like the taste, which is kind of sad now that I think about it! I think I've now read everything you have on FP so I am looking forward to your next update! Hopefully I shall be able to read straight away instead of being pooey and inactive like I have been recently. Silly exams. |
pandorka42 1/31/08 . chapter 1Hahaha! That was fantastic. Loved the idea of the lip balm. Although, I think it would have been better to cut it off after "...he walked off." The last sentence seemed like unneeded extra. I liked your descriptions though. Not too much and not to little- just right!(I feel like Goldie-locks saying ) Anyways, have a great week! |
GrannyP 1/27/08 . chapter 1Haha! Hilarious! I thought the title and summary was pretty funny, so I had to check it out. So it was brief and a little vague, but still cute. |
Alkali.Alias 2/15/07 . chapter 1First, I'll do the constructive critisism and then tell you how much I love it. You wrote: "bent his head towards mine and begun to lick my lips" I think it's supposed to be "began" instead of "begun." The second thing I have a complaint against is that we didn't really have any idea of her previous relationship with Jack. Was he an enemy? It seemed that way because she thought he was going to make fun of her, but that could have been her own insecurities talking. I would havel liked to hear a bit more about their previous interactions, but whatever floats your boat. Thirdly, I LOVED IT. Really. It's sweet, to the point, and just...cute. Even in this little thing, you can almost feel her character coming through. And this line: "Why else would he be staring at my lips as if it were a soccer goal?" Wow, if there was a best line award, I would give it to you for that. |

zephyr deity 4/20/06 . chapter 1Is this a one-shot? If so, too bad. It's pretty nice but i was sorta grossed out by the description of the kiss - LOL, I'm only 14 that's why. |
