Smashwords book reviews by L.A Speedwing

Starting Over on April 28, 2012

Is there a good way to break up with someone? Not really but there's definitely a way to write about it and that's what this author was able to achieve in this story. We live this break up with the protagonist.
Heart over Head over Heels on May 31, 2012

Nice story. Poetic and thoughtfully written. I like the way the character's feelings moves from head to heart through the story. I only found one problem to this story. Way too short! ;-) But lovely ending.
The White Gloves on May 31, 2012

The sequence of events is a little unusual ( a bit confusing) but we get there in the end. And a nice end. Nice witty writing as well as a polished style "she tried to calm down the wildness that was brewing behind the diamonds." I mean nicely done! Jane Eyre meets Scarlett O'Hara. That would be one way to describe the character.
The Orphan and the Shape Shifter on June 08, 2012

Show us, don't tell us. You're telling rather than showing how poor or lonely Elizabeth is. Also you should start the story by an action scene, or something unusual to keep the reader reading.
Love and Misery by Cynthia Woolf on June 08, 2012

Lovely story and humourous in parts. Love on Misery island. clever idea. "only noticed one possible typo at the end- touched his lips it" maybe?
Color My Catcher on June 08, 2012

really good dialogs and a good story.
Melissa and her Prince on Dec. 20, 2012

Cute little story with simple but effective illustrations.
