In particular, I love that she makes him "horrible" yet gives us enough backstory to explain why and to give us a reason to sympathize with him. Really stellar.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06283504787794610911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2291157166360423354.post-42183120539286353532010-05-17T23:09:57.324-05:002010-05-17T23:09:57.324-05:00Indeed an excellent choice!

The writing is superb, the story suspenseful and dark - I love the way the vampires are written here. The author intertwines humor and drama skillfully. I found myself laughing out loud and biting my fingernails all in the same chapter. There is so much to this story but it never loses its way. There is a back story that makes the entire tale even more compelling as you understand why this dark Edward is the way he is. This Edward is very snarky sometimes even mean but Bella holds her own and gives as good as she gets. I really like this Bella - she stands out from the cliche fan fic version she sometimes can be in so many stories. This is a fic that you can't put down until you have completely consumed it - because it consumes you. As soon as you start reading the story you know you have found something unique and quite amazing. I can't wait for the author's next effort. I am a Twi fan fic devotee but would read anything she writes. I am happy to see TLYDF highlighting this story - it deserves to be known.Elora MacCoinnichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08043539074611243391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2291157166360423354.post-12353694682477231372010-05-16T16:52:44.315-05:002010-05-16T16:52:44.315-05:00I stayed up an entire night to read this fic when ...I stayed up an entire night to read this fic when I found it by accident on someone's Favorite page. It ruined me for so many other stories, because this is quality story telling and now I automatically compare it to other vamp stories. Completely different from anything I've read, no character cliches, insane use of Esme, Jasper, Alice, Emmett, etc. I nearly cried when it ended, even though I understand that a good author knows when to end a story. Now it's being pimped nearly every day at A Different Forest. Several times daly. GO READ THIS!Tong Tonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14419348244939165903noreply@blogger.com
