Latest Review: Creating Literary Stories: A Fiction Writer's Guide by William H. Coles

Re: Review of Curby

Post by dragonet07 »

The story’s premise sounds very intriguing, and I’m curious as to how it unfolds in just 105 pages. The mention of a lack of emotion in the review worries me a bit, but maybe other aspects of the story make up for it. Thank you for the helpful review.

Post by Raquel Sojo »

A story that mixes issues of substance abuse, disease and abandonment; when love and true nobility is what moves us, can the bond that exists solely from the heart win? While I'm curious how little this story delves into emotions, I certainly want to know if Curby manages to stay together with Nick. Another intriguing fact is Curby's abandonment, for what reasons and who is behind it? Thank you for this detailed review, it's certainly a book I want to read!

This review is as intriguing as the story itself sounds. It contains just enough detail to pique the reader's interest without detracting from the potential reading experience of the book itself. I may just have to add this one to my to-read list! Thank you for the well-written review.

A baby found out of the blue is shocking. But this unfortunate incident became a blessing to the lives of these two lovers. Sandra had the experience of motherhood, I would love to know how the journey went. This sounds like an emotional story that will take readers on a roller coaster ride.

Mmmmhh I sounds like a very nice book. Although I feel like it has gabs in information. Looking at the title of the book it gives an idea of a story about Curby, but reading this review it feels like everything revolves around nick. I feel like reading it sometime.

Not many people would take home a child they found on the streets. The following events involving teenage drug abuse, murder, and a conspiracy to derail Nick's custody case sound interesting. I am curious to see if Nick is finally granted custody of Curby. Congratulations on BOTD.

Is this a true life story or fiction? Either ways, I'm so emotional now. Sometimes, people turn the good we do to seem as problem for us. I'll really love to know how this story ends. This is an interesting review.
Congratulations to the author on winning book of the day.

I do hope that Nick eventually got to keep Curby because their story is too beautiful to not have a happy ending. Kudos to the author for such a wonderful book. Congratulations on being the BOTD.

It seems like the plot is too emotional for me. Since, I'm not ready to read something like that right now, I'll save this one for sometime in the future. But congratulations on being listed as Book Of The Day.

Wow, just when Nick thought that everything would be alright, then the worst happens. It's quite sad that Sandra died without seeing Curby grow up. This is not a story I would like to hear from someone. Thanks for the detailed review. Congratulations on BOTD.

The introduction of the review was amazing. I wonder if Nick would still be able to keep Curb despite no proof of birth or adoption. Congratulations on winning BOTD.

I'm so sad at the turn of events. Family is not always about blood and I hope that Nick gets to keep Curby and is vindicated from all the messy situation surrounding him. Congratulations on BOTD.
