I really like the setting, somehow we haven’t had a story in Hawaii told from the perspective of a local boy or had a story set in Hawaii at all. There’s a lot of surfer terminology I don’t exactly understand, but it adds to the authenticity of the story. I can tell that the narratorContinue reading “Pipeline”

I really like the new additions to this story, it more bluntly shows how Maria is suffering from her father’s passing even though ten years have passed. She might be hurting herself and got in a Spanish argument with her mother on the day they were supposed to honor him. Maria is an honor studentContinue reading “Papa Popcorn”

I forgot that I really liked how the author described things in the story, and how we’re casually told half a page in that this takes place in a future where working conditions for the middle class have somehow gotten worse. I really like the new addition, even though we still don’t know anything aboutContinue reading “The Light Behind the Eyes (part 2)”

I think that story is more polished this time around, but the pace is still too fast for me to get invested in the character and I still can’t feel any emotion behind the words so it all feels very stale. It’s just someone calmly describing a sports game and that’s not really interesting. WeContinue reading “Rookie Season (revised)”

I really like how the main character is written so hilariously, even though she’s basically a psychopath I strangely enjoy hearing about her endeavors to cripple her boyfriend which resulted in his death. She complains a lot about having to clean up the girl her boyfriend cheated on her with so next time the mainContinue reading “Fuck (revised)”

The characters feel very stale, and I can’t help but crack up every time I hear them say “Tabasco Warrior” so seriously. The stages he goes through are over so quickly and the main character literally has no fear as he goes up the mountain that killed his father. He’s as bland as plain tofu.Continue reading “Dragon King”

I really like the picture at the beginning, it really sets the scene for a desolate story. It’s really tragic that a little girl had to take care of an addict and only got care from her mother to keep up appearances. It wasn’t her fault she died, Lilith shouldn’t have had that kind ofContinue reading “Lilith”

It’s better than the original version of the story but the ending is kind of ruined by giving it away on the very first page. I thought that the queen was going to die in childbirth but that cliche is done. The protagonist has very realistic fears which I really appreciate and can personally understand,Continue reading “The Knight and the Dragon”

I always look forward to Cameron’s stories, especially since they seem to get better every time he writes one. He has gone into the fantasy genre before since he’s a fan of such things but the first one was more like realistic fantasy and the second like an alternate version of the TV show Supernatural.Continue reading “Hot Blooded”

Usually when you hear this title it’s about someone really amazing in a respectable field or someone with incredible skills, but how a god is defined in this story is really depressing. I think that the protagonist is just a kid, and he might suffer from seizures and his parents decide to fix that byContinue reading “Gods Among Men”
