Review: Where's Theo?
Rating: 2 out of 5

In this story, Theodore has learned astral projection from his friend, Kristyn, and upon returning to his body after a short, out of body experience, he finds that his physical body isn't where he left it. Has someone hijacked it or did it wander off by itself? This story is about Theodore tracking down his body and what he discovers when he finds it.This is maybe a ten-minute read, a very short short story, I guess. And while the idea behind it is potentially interesting, this story didn't pull me in and make me care about Theodore. There was really no tension or worry for the reader to feel as Theodore searched for his body. As for the ending, I think it was intended to be sweet or endearing, but it felt one-note to me, with the shallow characters and the awkward dialogue. Overall, there's just not enough feeling, depth, or quirkiness for me to think that this story is special or even truly interesting.
