A simple, relatable story that drives the irony home. Short and to the point. I think one of the aspects I most enjoyed about this story is that the person seeking vengeance isn’t the original victim; such a story is a testament that such horrible actions affect more than just one person, and there is no accounting for all of those emotions and possibilities.

Vindictive was my perfect example of what a great short story is. It had a catchy beginning, held the readers interest and ended with a bang (not literally, no spoilers revealed). I enjoyed this read. It was the most realistic out of the few so far and in such a short story it created a relationship between the characters and the reader, which made you relate to what they were feeling and why they were reacting that way.

I thought it was very readable and unique. Definitely different from what I usually read.

I found this story quite unique. There are very less people who seek revenge on behalf of the victim. It is very uncommon.

The close relationship between a brother and sister is what appealed to me the most. It kind of reminded me of my own sons. One of them gets into a situation, the other is there to get him out of it
