Barely There is one of those short stories that would have made a fantastic novel. Interesting characters that would have made a lasting impression with a novel-length story. A very interesting premise that would have smoked with a novel-length story.And therein lies my biggest issue. Short stories don't usually have enough meat to satisfy most serious readers. I used to think it was disappointing when a short story wasn't well written. Now, I know it's hugely disappointing when a great short story IS well written. I just want more.For those that enjoy short stories with a touch of conflict centered on a love-crossed couple, Barely There is the story for you. You won't be disappointed.
