Review: A Solid Short Story
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 08 5, 2012
Short stories can be difficult to write. The author needs to provide the reader with enough info to get them interested and, in the end, make an impact. Tough.Absorbed is roughly 188 Kindle locations once you subtract the intro and ending bits. I downloaded this one when it was offered as a freebie.The main character is solid and the creepy necklace concept is such fun. My only complaint is I wish I had a little more build up regarding the men. More subtle abuse - less in your face. It would have made me want them to die. The addition of five to ten more pages could have built the tension more and made the final impact greater.But - I would definitely read more by this author. She has a creative writing voice and I'd gladly hear more of it.
