I started reading fan fiction when I was a young teenager and I couldn’t get over Twilight. I’ve read so many different stories, but nothing that really stuck with me except for this story. I love to read, but I have problems reading books that seem so unbelievable. And I’m not talking about unbelievable as in sparkly vampires and imprinting werewolves. What makes a story believable is all in how the author writes. It takes skill to write a story where even the most absurd ideas actually make up part of a great story. I have put down so many books because the author couldn’t finish an idea through or they just really couldn’t put what they were trying to get across into words. Or it’s so cringey and unrelatable. I’m starting to ramble at this point, but I wanted to say that I am 27 now and I specifically get on just to look up Maggie’s Gutter to reread this story. I think the author is so talented and such a great writer. This story actually takes me back to feeling like an awkward giddy teen when I read it and I can feel Bella growing throughout this. I wanted to give kudos to Maggie’s Gutter and I hope they still read these reviews. I also hope they have written a book.

Charlie is a fucking dumb asshole like in the twilight series too but in this story he is even worse

All these years have gone by and I still come back to this story from time to time, hoping against all hope that it will be finished. In any case, thank you very much for writing!

Still dreaming about a day when you might come back and update.

Ten years, Maggie. Ten years.
I was only eighteen then. I'm twenty eight now.
Somehow I'm still waiting.

so sad that this is jncomplete, but I still really love this story, so thank u so much for sharing

Hi. i just found this story and I loved the first chapter so I just kept reading, but I had to stop and leave a review 'cause this chapter made me cryI feel so bad for Bella. Her mom left her, her best friend left her, and now EdwardI wish I could just give her a big hug.
The way you wrote this chapter... it just reminded me of how confused and alone I felt as a teenager, but unlike me, Bella has these heartbreaking things happening to her and it's just so sadHowever, I love her relationship with Charlie. it's so beautiful. Thanks so much for this chapter

Read this story again. Still loved it so much even after having read it so many times before. Thank you for sharing this story with us.

This story was really amazing, sweet, funny and super cute! I don't know if it's finished or not but I liked very much anyway. Thanks for sharing

Me checking for an update even though it’s been almost 10 years lol

Hi, so I read this story this weekend because someone recommended it to me and I had no idea it was unfinished. And who knows if you'll ever read this, or finish this because it's been so long now haha, but I just wanted to say how much I loved it. And I wanted to say thanks. Whatever happened that prevented this story to be finished, I'm still thankful that I got to read your work. It was really beautiful and it made me nostalgic for a simpler time when I was younger. So I wanted to say thank you for that.

Maggie, I don't know if you're still out there in the world somewhere, but if you are, I hope you've listened to Taylor Swift's new song "Cardigan" because I just did and it reminded me of this story so much I had to come back here to tell you that even after all these years I'd still give my right arm to read the ending. You once said it was a Taylor Swift song that inspired you to write this story. I can only hope another would inspire you to pick it up again after eight years.
Hope you're doing well, whatever you're doing.

Gani.

Charlie's a cutie
