Review: A Tight Story
Rating: 4 out of 5

I always look forward to a T.M. Franklin story, they’re so well-crafted. Generally, I’m not a fan of short stories; I like to sink my teeth into long tales, but T.M. does such a good job of getting the reader attached to a character in a short amount of time that I’m always glad to spend the time.Chloe and Ethan are likeable kids, and the concept of the piece is intriguing. What if you could see possible futures through your window, but had no clue how to change them?I’m revising a novel of my own that’s couched in the same tense as this story: third person present. This is a cool tense to use, as it makes everything that happens seem more tangible. It really works for ‘Window’. Four and a half stars.
