I don’t think I have read anything more emotionally powerful (on this site) then this story. Readers can’t really relate when a story is about vampires or other mystical creatures, but you can when a story has a real basis behind it. Even a powerful one, such as this story does. When the main character was scared, I found my nerves strung tight. When she was sad, I wanted to cry. That is the mark of one genuinely good author. This story was written so well, I felt like I was reading one of the many novels I own that have already been edited and published. I hardly ever make comments on the actual story pages, but I found myself wanting to be one of the many people saying… “Upload, Upload, Upload” Well Done! *****" - GIGS782, five stars
