beautifully written.

intriguing and wonderful story, thank you :)

it's scary how much i identify with alice. you have a beautiful attention to detail that made me feel like i could live the experience myself. right now im a sucker for happy endings, so i love the hope they were left with.

Oh, this story was beautiful. Especially the last line, but really all of it. The descriptions and the way you connected the mental with the physical senses...absolutely lovely.

I found this one-shot while searching another's favorite's list. It is absolutely stunning. Just the way Alice's friends are so insistent on bringing up her 'moment of insanity' makes me just as exasperated as she was! Your voice is just amazing, the way you explain things is just...wow- and I do believe this is the most flattering review I've ever written. Bravo, bravo.

With words of encouragement,

Beautiful.

What a beautiful story! I could almost feel the heat of the sun, the enchantment Alice must have felt, and then that numb feeling slowly spreading. Your writing is amazing!

I really liked this. It had a good mood.

This is an incredibly beautiful peice, your grasp of imagination and passion is so captivating it made me feel light, and heavy when it was needed. Just... faultless. Really, really amazing.

All I have to say about this story is wow. It was very poetic in the descriptions of Marina. Very good, but I was left confused with Alice's friends, were there two or three?
