Guest chapter 33 . 2/3 Still love this story! Went back to reread it. Why do you think Jess still loves her after she used him like that? |
FrenchyMarshmallow chapter 33 . 1/9 You're probably far from here now but I just could not not review this... Just finished and I am actually crying. This is so bitter sweet for me as a Lit fan through and through because you got me rooting for Tristan the whole story and then you had to throw Jess in the mix and I knew realistically that it was not gonna happen and I didn't even wanted to really but still he breaks my heart... This is so well written and thought and everything. You have so much talent when it comes to exploring characters, their motives their growth. It is complex but not cliche not too much so believable and the whole thing rings true beginning to end. I also really enjoy the way you integrate the sex not as an excuse for smut but as an actual part of the story. It is never pointless but always a way to say something more about them or their relationship. I'm continuing my discovery of all your stories, but if you were to try your hand at a Lit fic please notify me lol! |

Goldenbassets chapter 31 . 5/11/2018 This story has had me on an emotional rollercoaster all day. I can't let it go. Every spare moment. It is wrecking me. Also very hot too. So up and down. I don't have enough wine left, only two glasses in the bottle. My Friday evening is consumed with this fic. Omg. |

Im incredibly sleep deprived this week and i went to bed 5 hours later tthan my bosy could have just to keep reading this, its incredible and so good, genuine, real. It’s so far beyond the avg fanfiction and trust me, i love the average fanfiction |
lost0and0found chapter 1 . 2/27/2018 Every now and then I think about this story. I'm yet to discover a better written characterization and heart-twisting plot than yours. I've been listening to 'Shameless' by The Weekend and it kept reminding me of something. It took me a while to realize it reminded me of Tristan in this story, especially in those first chapters. I'm still in love with this story, its slightly unlikely premise and the masterfully executed plot and characterization. Thank you for sharing it with the world :) |
heathermarshall chapter 33 . 5/1/2017 I love this story so much I wish you would add more to it |
sexy sadie chapter 33 . 4/5/2017 truly, truly amazing. |
heathermarshall chapter 1 . 3/14/2017 Truly a great story. Even a few tears |
Seeran chapter 32 . 3/16/2016 I'm so glad I took the time to read your story. Very well written. Deep and thorough characterization. You have a talent for making the reader get the feels. That said, I hated Rory. She had no redeeming qualities. I hurt for Tristan and all the rest of her harem. She didn't deserve any of them or their pain. Honestly, I hoped for a different ending that left Rory abandoned by all of the guys she used and hurt. So while I appreciate you finally finishing this fic, I had to stop at this chapter, because Rory doesn't deserve a happy ending. Seeing her book published (by yet another guy she destroyed) should be her one and only consolation. But again, wonderful writing! Cheers from the UK! |
Guest chapter 33 . 1/22/2015 worth the read |
lost0and0found chapter 33 . 1/24/2014 Hey:) Whatever I say, I feel it will be short of words for what this story made me feel. It was heart-warming, atmospheric and just so... alive. I could sense all those shifts in the air and all those shifts in the characters' minds, and I held my breath all the way through, because you took on a pretty tough task - you chose to describe the ups and downs of a relationship, and you did a brilliant, brilliant job building the characters and evolving the plot... I feel like there were all those supporting characters that made this story vibrantly alive. There was New York City for example, which was a thoroughly separate character in your story - I could feel it all the way through the narrative, in the city crowd buzz or the cloud-cast sky, in the coffee booths and office building wide windows. So was the season frame of this story - the season change as the plot evolved, it was that subtle thread that led me all the way through. Oh well, the leads - brilliant job with Rory and Tristan - from every little habit and detail in their demeanor to the insightful, psychologically correct twists in their characters. It's like their story starts backwards in this fic, and it's a beautiful, powerful plot choice you made - showing the wrecks a relationship is rebuilt from, the very same way a broken person needs to redeem themselves. As to the Jess-involving parts... I'm a dead-set Lit fan, you know? Yet, being such, I can't see any other way this story could've happened - it was so refreshing to have that new perspective on Lit and Jess/Tristan dynamics. Without denying that infamous love and mind chemistry Lit have, you transform it into something just as powerful. Then, the emotions. I was crying through half of this story (and I'm not the tear-jerkable kind of person, I swear). But I was. Throughout this story, I was. I didn't cry because it was particularly sad at those points, I cried because it felt so damn real, so utterly true, and this touched me. You have hell of a talent, and I hope you know it and it brings you joy, because your story left a deep trace in my mind. Thank you for a insightful, soul-feeding piece of literature you granted us here, because that's what this story will ever be to me. Bow ! :) |
