holy shit

That's... incredibly deep. I really like it. It's kinda hard to say why exactly, but it's really interesting and sad too.

This writing is so good I think I'm going to die happy after all.

Seriously, how you command the scene with the real, concrete details mixed in with sidelong jabs of thought-provoking tidbits just gets me every time. And then, just when I start to think that I've got it down and you can't surprise me, you throw in a one-liner, usually at the end, with the flipped meaning that it was supposed to have and I'm just completely stilted. It's amazing. I swear, I could read your writing all day if I had the time and enough of your writing.

Seeing as those last three lines on the second part are something I chew on every day, even before I read this, I immediately took refuge in this one-shot once I found it. You put together elements of real life characteristics and qualities and then add in Spencer's just as a twist to make it something completely new.

If there's one thing I would say to correct, it would be to never let there be a moment in your life when you're not writing. What you do is absolutely brilliant, and it'd be a crime for you to waste time and this kind of purely, satisfyingly amazing writing.

Anyway, I don't mean to drag on. All in all, I love this and I love all of your work, and I hope you never stop writing. Great job, really.

Whoa. This is good. I don't even watch this show, just decided to read this 'cos the summary sounded good, and jeez! You write real well! Pity the story doesn't get more attention - with your writing, it totally should!

Okay, wow.
It's really hard to find good Criminal Minds fan fiction, and this is absolutely top notch and heart wrenching. Reid is my favorite character in the show and you have portrayed all his complications, his hurts, his talents and his pain so wonderfully. Amazing, amazing job..

This was so incredibly good. I loved the insight you gave into Spencer's mindset. I particularly enjoyed the scene where Reid tried to find what kind of killer each of them would be; he didn't want to think of it, but it brought up some good points. The last few lines were amazing. I hope you write more!

I liked the story but know that it would have helped if you had added Reid's name in the story's information part of the summary. Just saying. Please keep on writing.

That was heartbreaking beautiful, I really loved it.

Oh my goodness, this is beautiful. The hopelessness is executed perfectly, and I love the integration of the DW episode - it works really well. Thank you!

This is already like a punch in the guts, and I absolutely love it. Can't wait for more. xo

That was different.
