As you respond, you might want to think about some of the following: Does it play like a movie behind your eyes? Can you see it, hear it, smell it? Are there enough thoughts and feelings to take you into the character's heart and mind? Is there a strong narrative hook? Is there a building of tension through the use of obstacles in the path of the main character? Did it end slowly and carefully? Did the ending satisfy the reader? Please be sure that your comments are focused on the reading before posting them to the discussion.
