Blueberry and Blacktooth chapter 8 . 2/17/2015 Hi there, Well firstly I'd just like to say how much I love your story and how happy I am to have come across it. I was a little bit hesitent to read it at first, but I'm really glad I did. It's so hard to find a greatly written Anti-Mary-Sue story, and yours is really great. Anyway, I was wondering if you were ever planning on updating again? I really hope so, especially since you left us with such a cliff-hanger! Haha, anyway, Much love, Blue |
Turtle Kid the Woolgatherer chapter 8 . 1/17/2014 Aah! I am really enjoying this story, and I'm so glad that-that-that they're back! I was wondering if they would be, and I'm so happy that they are! (Yes, I am indeed trying to keep things vague so that people reading the reviews don't get what's happening unless they figure it out by themselves.) |
Yuki Suou chapter 8 . 7/19/2013 Amazing! I can't believe you've left this story for two years. |
One Shiny Mess chapter 8 . 4/30/2013 Too bad this story hasn't been updated in a while, it's a lot of fun. I love the humor, and Millie's attitude, and watching the story through her eyes. I understand how it goes with inspiration though. Very entertaining, either way! |
superattackpea chapter 8 . 8/19/2012 I LOVE this! Amelia is a very realistic character and I like her role as the Sue's tag-along. It makes her more likable. I'm wondering what happened to Legolas, and why Pippin is here. Don't keep me waiting too long. ;) |
KatiKates chapter 8 . 12/20/2011 Of course! I find a humorously written story...yet it hasn't been updated since August! It is almost Christmas. I would love a finely wrapped new chapter under the tree, Santa! Please! Love your story, maybe a little more character interaction, yet still thoroughly enjoyable! |
crownedwithstars7 chapter 8 . 10/14/2011 Very interesting story! Amelia is quite the original character, stuck as a 'handmaiden' to those two selfish twerps. Can you tell I hate them? You've made them so vapid, selfish and stupid; the worst traits of a Sue all wrapped up in one. I'm glad that all the canon characters realize how ridiculous they are. I laughed when Boromir caught Elenya practically strangling Amelia. And yay! Merry and Pippin have presumably caught up! I kind of figured that's where Legolas disappeared to, although I can't believe that Elenya had the nerve to blame his disappearance on Amelia. WTH. The contrast between her Sue-ness and Amelia's normality makes it that much more ridiculous. I don't know how you'll get rid of the two Sues, but I hope they fall into Mount Doom or die in some other gruesome way. lol. I look forward to the next chapter! |
Urthona chapter 8 . 10/7/2011 So it ends...on a cliffhanger/plot-twist, almost four years ago...though updated recently to be sure. Well, Saltwater, do you plan any further updates to the story? I shall await them. |
Urthona chapter 5 . 10/7/2011 Still with you; still reading. :) I like the way you've handled the tone and voice of the story to this point. I think your writing is tightening up and improving with each chapter. I'm really both impressed and entertained by the self conscious, softly mocking tone of the narration. I loved the sentence: "a deadly adventure where death waited at every corner to leap on me and kill me to death." Inspired! Reading on... |
Urthona chapter 2 . 10/7/2011 Interesting start, though until Amelia began standing up to Bettiel and Veronicawen in the last scene, it was reading a little too much like Cinderella for my taste. I like the turn of events though, so I'll keep reading and hoping that Legolas doesn't show up with a glass shoe any time soon. I also complement your general handling of the writing and language. None of the spelling and grammatical porridge that turns up in too many of these stories. The only thing I found out of place was Amelia (in narrator voice) calling the world "the Land of the Rings". No one in Endor/Middle-earth would use that term, and I assume from the rest of the writing that Amelia is very familiar with the books, so it seems odd to me for her to. She's your character though, so perhaps it is more in character for her than I realise. A good first chapter; reading on curiously now... |
Larry1710 chapter 8 . 9/20/2011 I love that she flashed him twice. Almost getting to be a habit! |
Araloth the Random chapter 8 . 9/12/2011 As usual, an awesome read! Even if we have to wait a long time for updates (almost as long as you had to wait for me to get around to reading and reviewing this P) it's worth it, if we're going to end up with an update this good. I like that you've mixed humour with the terror of battle - it gives that slightly hysterical feel to what would otherwise be a very serious and frightening situation. Awesome work! Ara |
KrnYong chapter 8 . 9/9/2011 I KNEW IT! legolas went to get merry & pippin! I am so very glad of how wrote legolas, its hard to see him written in a believable way on And i especially thought boromir's accidental pervert moments were hilarious Plz update soon :) |
cri8 chapter 8 . 8/22/2011 I don't think I have actually come across a story such as this one before. You got the MSish tendencies of your 2 fan-elfs balanced with the snappish and sarcastic human realistic amulet. AKA Amelia, Mellie and NESS. Alusions to the Loch Ness Monster? Or perhaps the hybrid little imprintee of Alpha Wolves? I'll make it apoint to continue reading this story in the future |
Araloth the Random chapter 7 . 4/10/2010 Don’t be dissatisfied with your last two chapters—I really enjoyed them, does that count? :) Poor Millie, I really feel for her. Despite what most Suethors think, being in Middle Earth wouldn’t be too much fun. Life without basic necessities like running water and toilet paper would suck. I think it’d be hilarious to see what Legolas thinks of Elenya the Sue constantly trying to hit on him. I won’t yell at you to hurry up and write more, though I confess that I squeal happily whenever I see updates for this fic in my inbox. D Thank you for sharing! Ara |
