Reviews for The Father
Guest chapter 64 . 1/25/2022
I spent a week almost obsessively reading this book. It made me laugh. It made me cry. It made me want to walk through the pages of the book so I could join in the action. I have a few thoughts about it that I want to mention here:

1. Young children are extremely hard to write. Their innocence yet mischievousness. Their inability to understand important events yet their desire to want to help anyways. I’ve reads many books where writers try so hard yet fail at it anyways.
You, however, nailed it. Sara and Sandra were one of my favorite parts of this book. Their speech, their mannerisms, everything. One of my favorite scenes was in the chapter, “How Not to Babysit a Skywalker”, when Sara and Sandra were describing their father to Lando. It made me smile so much. You managed to capture two twin two-year olds perfectly.

2. Your dialogue is beautiful. I’m a nut for things like that, and it made me overjoyed to read the interchanges between characters and their internal dialogue.

3. You captured Han Solo perfectly. I could imagine a slightly younger version of Harrison Ford delivering each and every line.

4. I am a mixture of a visual and verbal reader (I see the action and hear the words spoken by the character as I’m reading). For me, reading your book was like watching one of my favorite movies. Your descriptiveness helped me to hear the characters clearly and see the action play out in their surroundings.

There are so many more things I loved about this story as well. I would like to thank you for pouring so many hours into writing this, as I know how hard writing can be— and on top of that, your author’s notes made it sound like life was keeping you very busy. I could tell how much energy and time you put into this.
I will definitely be coming back for a reread of this again and again. Thank you for sharing your work with me and with others.

I was wondering how you'd end this behemoth of a story, but I hadn't thought of this. More fool me. Its perfect. Thank you for the gift that this epic has been; its thoroughly diverted me for almost two days straight.
