GrannyP 4/11/08 . chapter 3I don't have much to say about this chapter. I think it's kind of a transition into the next part where we will (hopefully) get to see April and Jake together. Of course, you could tease us and stretch it out a little bit longer, which would be understandable and make me giggle at your cleverness. Nice work. I look forward to reading more. |
GrannyP 4/11/08 . chapter 2I like how you switch the focus of the story from one character to another, but you keep the third person POV. I kind of like stories that do that. When I write, I tend to focus all on one person without venturing out, and it can get a bit tiresome. But you make use of third person perspective and show us how, as the writer, you know all. Yay! Nice work with this one. There was a minor grammar/word choice thing I noticed, but I am going to stop being a nerd for five seconds and just let it go. It wasn't a big deal anyway. |
GrannyP 4/11/08 . chapter 1Interesting beginning to a story you have here (speak like Yoda, apparently I do). HA! No, really, it's cute so far. One thing that jumped out at me (only because I am a speech/language teacher and I tend to notice these things-I'm such a nerd) was the shifting of verb tenses during the flashback part. For example, "he asked" (past tense) followed by "he whispers" (present tense). I think you probably intended to have past tense the whole way, as the event did take place in the past. So, I will continue reading now! |

MythCreatorWriter 3/4/08 . chapter 1I may just be in a bad mood, but this wasn't working for me. Most of your writing was long sentances. I like the subject matter, but...what I don't get is April's feelings. So she's leaving him because he doesn't feel love for her, and she didn't let him know until then? ... Huh? I might be inspired from this to write my own, though. I may read the rest, depending on things. And I feel like the lyrics weren't necessary. In fact, I skipped them. I can see if you have a couple lines, but to have a whole block of the lyrics, I just think it's a bother instead of adding to the atmosphere of the chapter. Again, I'm really sorry if I sound pessimistic but I feel you should know what I'm feeling so you can make changes and improve. Ok? Message me if you have any questions, please! I'm only trying to help! |
Inkhearts and Inkstains 3/4/08 . chapter 3I really like your story. I'm not sure if your english though- anyway- just a few pointers- we say pull not snog now, snog is a bit 90's and fish and chips in London- its a bit uncommon, cream tea would be more likely. Anyway, I can't wait for more. Please update soon. |
artistic dreamer 2/10/08 . chapter 2hi again! i really like your style of writing. just reading this, i'm getting a bit teary eyed. don't worry, it's not your story, i'm just a really emotional and sensitive story and i really like jake's character. and the italicized (is that like a flashback?) parts really give a lot of feeling into jake. so yeah, basically i REALLY really like this. sorry for babbling about stupid things, just wanted to give you my opinions :D |

SSC and F13 2/7/08 . chapter 2so i'm guessing this story will be switching POVs. it's good to see from the other characters POVs too so i have a feeling that this will be a great stor. hope you update soon! |
Tecna 2/3/08 . chapter 1Another fantastic fic, it's well written and I just want to read more and find out what happens next. Also I apologise I haven't been consistently reviewing your other story, but I have been reading it, it's just that I hardly get time to review or read. I have yet to work on my fics, and I'm not even getting that done. I have courseworks going on in college so I hope you understand but do continue to update. I apologise in advance that I am not reviewing all your chapters, but I will review as soon as I get the time. Sorry, but still great new fic. Tecna ;) |
