Hi EnterName5312,
This review comes with a huge thank you for reviewing my story, "Gratitude For The Relatives". This is a wonderful story. The tone is formal. It suits the story and plot very well. The reader is wondering what the strange smell that John detects is. They will read to the last word to find out. The plot is straight forward and moves along logically. The story is about a party which turns deadly when one of the guests turns into a ravenous beast. The conflict is well defined. There is no doubt about what is going on here. The characters are well developed and believable. They come across as real people. The dialogue is well done and realistic. The characters speak like real people. The description is detailed and vivid. It puts the reader all the way into the story. I did come across a couple of structural issues that need your attention:
1)“I saw what you did and I didn’t want to leave you behind”-There should be a comma after "did".
2)John went outside and climbed up. He walked along the roof till he reached the glass. When he got there, the stranger popped his head up. “I didn’t ask you to follow me” said John as he was stomping on the glass skylight.
The stranger walked over and looked down before saying, “It doesn’t look like there’s any survivors in there anymore”-These are two separate paragraphs and need to be double spaced.
The story is consistent in terms of point of view and tense. Great job.
