Wow... didn't expect that /3

This is just my sort of angst. I like the scenario of Bella doing even worse in NM, and I'm really enjoying this so far.

Great

Fantastic

Loved it!

This was an amazing read, would love to read edward’s pov though.

I devoured this fic and have got to tell you about it.

Your writing is absolutely marvelous. Your pacing is great and the way you handled the time jumps and the haze was impressive. You create great imagery while using so few words at a time, and it was a delight to read this, even if painful (due to what Bella has gone through.). I saw in your profile that you gave up on the Edward POV of things and that saddens me, because at times I was really intrigued by a more linear perspective of the whole ordeal, but I understand that rehashing the same story for a second time can feel tirying.

All in all, great work! Thank you for writing and uploading it.

(Perhaps edit out the mention of the edward pov in the last chapter, tho?)

Hope you have a great life!

YAYYYYY! Is this #1000? I think it is!

Okay, I realize I'm cheating, but honestly, you could have easily broken this fic up into well over 40 chapters. Most of the chapters were quite long. Don't get me wrong, I'm the same. I have trouble keeping mine under 10K-15k words, which is atrociously long, but hey... I'm verbose dammit.

I feel so proud and jealous of other writers, like yourself, who have managed to start, write, end, and post an entire story. For me, it's on my damn bucket list. Someday, I will post an Epilogue. IT WILL HAPPEN!

Thank you again for sharing your lovely talent with the rest of us. Fanfiction entered my life unexpectedly back in 2008 and surprisingly became one of the beautiful little subtle things I love about humanity. So... in a sense, you've helped save me in your own way from my own rampant misanthropy.

HERO. In MY book.

Lots of KUDOS & love and well wishes to you and your family!

The autocorrect on here really pisses me off (ha! It literally just tried to change that to "passes"). In my previous review, it was supposed to say PENNAME, not PENNANT. Sheesh.

We're almost there!

Until the next!

Maybe that was 2 more to go. IDK, there's a bit of a delay when they post.

Anyway... I also liked the last paragraph of your bio. I never thought to do something like that, but I am of the same mindset. Save for two unlikely possibilites, Internet Forever for all to see... even posthumously!

Okay, until the next!

Sigh. I just read your bio. I will not lie and say I'm not saddened that you decided not to post what you wrote of Angels and Devils. Self-indulgent or not, I'd have loved to get those details.

If you ever change your mind, or decide you might want to ever take a crack at edits to make yourself like it more... seek me out. Seriously. I'd be happy to lend and ear, an eye, and healthy criticism. (Though, admittedly, I'm not much of a critic. I'm a bit to easy to please).

Hope your life is going well for you either way. You can find me on fb & fb msgr under my same pennant.

Okay, 3 more to go!

Ugh... why must we HAVE to conform to time? I so wish I could spend 12 hours a day researching, developing, and writing fiction... while simultaneously spending that same 12 hours cooking, cleaning, working, and spending time with my family & friends? Oh, to be an SMeyer vampire. If only, lol.

Okay, until the next!

I could honestly sit here and have a one-sided conversation with you all day, hahaha. Did I mention before how much I both equally love & hate the whole discussion between Edward & Bella about souls? Hers in particular? I think you did such a fantastic job of it... allowing Bella to articulate perfectly (unlike in the books or movies) while keeping true to Edward's stubborn character. It's really making me want to do a philosophical deep-dive into the entire concept and perhaps write a fic about it. I'm curious how much you wrestled with the character traits and subject matter when writing this. I tend to let myself get mired down in perfecting certain points when writing... which would explain why I can never seem to finish a single story of my own, lol.

Okay, until the next!

I'm also going to have to re-read this story at some point. There are some first that I can listen to, and they're not so complicated and I can get the bulk of the important things. But this story, I need to read along while listening... so many nuanced details and important plot points peppered in. These are the stories I LIVE for... the ones that DEMAND my undivided attention.

Okay, until the next!

Only 8 more of these to go. I checked, and it looks like you never did post the EPOV version of this story. *sadface*. I wonder if you ever come back to revisit your old stuff? Do you ever try to continue writing it? If so, I can be an excellent cheerleader and sounding board! Well... I do realize that the majority of folks who were immersed in this Fandom back in '09 have grown up and moved on with their lives. I am clearly not one of them, hahaha.

Onward to the next!
