Review of Report From The Lisa Lansing Case

Review by julia

Rated: 18+

| (3.5)

I have read others in this series but did not personally like this read.
This is my personal taste though. I found the poem very haunting but the rest of the read was like a report and so maybe it is to be that way but it was factual and alittle boring.
Sorry but tis my personal opinion.

Review of Bumble Boy

Review by julia

Rated: 13+

| (4.5)

A very tense story ending in despair that leaves you angry and sad.
Very well written with depth that makes you want to continue reading.
I wanted more for the main character but it's not the story being told.
I hated the father and great job as the writer reaches your emotions and taps at your emotions leaving you with feelings of deep anger and also love bubbling up.
I wanted to make it better for Jon.
The story seems to come from a family in the late 50's setting and is quite sterotyped for that era.
No complaints except maybe do a p.s. note saying Jon became famous and his brother a bum. :o)

Review of Unbroken

Review by julia

Rated: ASR

| (4.5)

A sad piece that is haunting. Moving in it's expert way to make the reader feel and dig for meaning as the reader contemplates the words.
I find the writing genius and earthly bound but wanting in escape.
I don't actually care for pieces like this because it emplores one self to consider the depths of their own life, asking questions that one does not want the answer too.

Review of Across The Universe

Review by julia

Rated: 18+

| (5.0)

I about cried when I read it. I felt some of the pain like she was trapped and no way to escape. I believed I wanted to find a way for her to escape so bad.
It was powerful and gave me feeling of helplessness as I myself read wanting to help her.
Perfection indeed.
Not a poem to enjoy but a poem to look into another soul's pain.

Review of Something's wrong with Jack....

Review by julia

Rated: ASR

| (5.0)

I absolutly love the story. You could make a short film with it. I loved it, I was right there. I could picture your friend.
I got that imagined friends leaves us and its so sad. I liked that the sixteen year old bounced between playful imagined friend and sanity. Dang that was great work.
I saw no real errors that merit pointing out. I look forward to more of your work.

Review of That Is What You'd Miss

Review by julia

Rated: E

| (3.0)

I think this author is very insightful and different in their approach to writing.
I had to read it 2x to get the meaning but I am slow to grasp at times.
A thinking poem that has wonderful merit.
I would love to read more of this persons work.

Beautiful vision of primal sexuality. I pictured the scene well as I read this. Only fault was the (A) back to back three times. Lovely reading.
