spongebob 2005-10-03 ch 1, anon.	abusevery long but well worth the ride, nice job!
luzz65 2005-05-10 ch 1,	abuseYour writing really is incredible. I'm usally not a G/S fan, but I discovered that I was reading almost all other couples. I found you on the favorite author list of one of the most talnted other writers so I decided to try it out. I'm still not a G/S fan but defintely a Burked fan! I still have a lot of your stories to read but I really hope you'll write more soon.
Cellar Door 26 2005-02-05 ch 1,	abusewow. this took me a long time to read but it was worth it. i really like this story even though i stayed up til one to finish it. bye.
rosie 2004-03-20 ch 1, anon.	abuseI LOVE this story! Wish we'd see more of a confident, carefree Sara on the show... it's so frustrating seeing how TPTB have dragged her down over the seasons! Your story was such a delight to read! It was nice to see Grissom pull his head out and even have to work a bit to 'win' Sara back! Excellent job, as always!
ACatFiend 2004-02-26 ch 1,	abuseYou'd better have a sequel to this! I loved the "What are you doing?" "What do you plan on doing after?" "How soon can you be here?" dialogue. It was so sweet. You really handled LH appropriately. Got it out of the way. He finally told her he loved her. It almost seems this is what it would take - at least almost losing her. I really need you to do a sequel, REALLY! By the way, how did she get hurt? Did they use protection, both times? I loved the way he dealt with the jealousy when they went out - "she didn't even notice the other men looking at her". Your dialogues were realistic too. What can I say? This was the best!
Jendeh 2004-02-14 ch 1,	abuseLOL its 4am and I have to get up at 8am. :) Your story was...great. Probably the best I've read yet of yours. Not that I've read them all yet. (btw I promise to leave reviews for them all!!) This was well written and the characters were in...character. I would like to see you write something much longer and with multiple plots lines going on. I think you could handle it with ease. :) Good job and keep writing...your good, very good.
futureat 2003-11-11 ch 1,	abuseaw, that was beautiful! I really liked the first lovemaking scene, it was nice to see Grissom so vulnerable and afraid of not being good enough for Sara, and vice versa
scigeek 2003-11-10 ch 1,	abuseI love this story. The way you mixed in her returning memories was cool - you feel Sara's confusion as she tried to piece everything together.
Spidey 2003-11-02 ch 1, anon.	abuseNeat. I liked this a lot, really. At first I felt a little uncomfortable about the 'new' Sara because I thought that she needed her bad memories back as well as her good ones in order for her to become what she once had been. But then you gave her those memories which pleased me, although I missed some sort of...I don't know, measurement maybe of how much of her memories she truly had regained by the end of the story. Perhaps you could tell me? Furthermore I liked the realistic way in which you described their first time making love and that it more often than not doesn't go as people imagine it. Also extremely cool and totally up my alley was your decision to not let her move into his apartment but let her find a new one for her own. One, that's also what I believe is best for a relationship and two, it's totally in character for them. On another note, I would have liked some more interaction with the other characters. Like Sara having breakfast with Nick and having some flashbacks. That way you could have shown how she starts to rebuild her friendship with the others as well and at the same time regain some things of her past. I know you've implied that such scenes might have happened, but I would have liked to read them. I've read your Nosferatu story as well which also was very entertaining if not too realistic at times(murderer still running free in spite of crushing evindence and a confession; maybe it was his special vampire powers which allowed him to lull Sara and Grissom into a state of indifference or illusion or something but I can't remember you mentioning that g). I really liked how you managed to weave the romance, drama and casefile together. Good job!
annie 2003-10-21 ch 1, anon.	abuseWow! I'm completely and utterly awed! I've only just gotten started on reading GS fanfics and I must say this is the best one I've read so far. Usually the amnesia story line is so overused (not to say abused:) and for me there wasn't a way to turn one of those into a good story. But YOU did it! This was great! You probably did a lot of research on it, didn't you? It seemed professional enough. Not that I know much about it. And I enjoyed the poems and quotes. I knew quite a few of them already and I loved how you incorporated them into your story. I think we might like the same authors :) Thanks so much for writing this wonderful story. It made my day and kept me up longer than I planned, but it was definitely worth it! I will go and check out some more of your work!
nutmeggies 2003-10-02 ch 1,	abuseWow. Amazing, amazing writing! You know these characters so well, and it really shows. To put them into this situation, and have it all seem so true to G and S is wonderful. I enjoyed every line! Both the canon characters and your original character of Dr. Kane were well-rounded and very realistic. I adored the storyline, and thought that both the internal monologue sections and the poetry and quotes added something really special to an already-fantastic fic! Wow, truly great job on this story! :) I think I'll have to go to your author page and check out all of your others!
TriplePirouette 2003-09-10 ch 1,	abuseBurked- this is, again, a fantastic piece of work! Your talent never ceases to amaze me, and though I don't leave feedback often, I am always in awe of your writign ability! But you're right- feedback is only a fiar part of this writer/reader relationship. So, take pride in knowing that you've created a superior piece of work that held my interest and called to me until I could finish it. Thank you for sharing your talent!
Pixy 2003-09-10 ch 1, anon.	abuseawsome awsome awsome. as always i loved this fic and i cant wait tilol ur next one. great job
Annie Lune 2003-09-09 ch 1,	abuseI have no idea how you do it Burked. Your writing just pulls me in and won't let me go until I have read every last word. That's one of the many qualities that great writers have. Your stories are so true to the characters and I just love them to pieces. I can tell you that I will be waiting impatiently for your next story, and hopefully many more after that too. I can't express enough how much I love your stories. Keep up the excellent work! *a.l.
Anansay 2003-09-09 ch 1,	abuseI too write because I simply like to write. But it is nice when other people can recognize the "work" (or time... effort... whatever...:) that a writer puts into their creation. I mean, what is 'to create' if there is no one to enjoy the creation afterwards? So we post the stories. And the feedback, reviews and comments might be considered a bonus. When I see another story by you, I know that I'll be reading something that has been well-thought out, that isn't too fluffy nor so heavy that it drowns the poor reader, that invites the reader along on a ride of myriad emotions all with very real sense about them. I'm sorry that you won't have as much time to write now that your studies have started again. I will definitely miss your stories. Perhaps, a bit here and there and a whole might come out by, say, December? LOL!
