Reviews

only so-so


(3 stars)

The story held my attention, other than hoping some readers would finish soon and not come back. But the ending! It was so abrupt and unsatisfying it left me thinking there should have been another chapter. 2 1/2 stars.


(5 stars)

An interesting story with many twists and turns. But her southern sip said there are many good readers, but some not so much

Good tale


(4 stars)

An interesting story with plenty of twists. Most reader are quite good, a few not so much. A rather abrupt ending.
