How spicy! I'm a bit confused as to what the 'JAYDEE' file is though, as you didn't clarify. I loved the addition of quotes from the story
Do you ever feel like you spend too much time reading? Yeah. Me neither. :lol:

I read the sample of "Waves Break (on Unknown Shores)" by Barry Litherland, it's my type of book. Thank you for the review.

Thank you for sharing your review with us. I enjoyed the sample pages of this book and your excellent review prompted me to add this book to my reading list. The plot sounds interesting and I am intrigued to see how Wayne turns out.

I don't know what it is bit it's interesting to read. The only thing I don't liked is that story is going nowhere. So it's irritating sometimes. That Wayne boy is seriously weird, I don't know why. But I pretty much wants to know. So, I'll be reading it. Written nicely that's a good thing.

I'm glad to see that the use of profanity did not affect your rating. The realest expression of passion is most often achieved by expletives.

This sounds intriguing with a suspenseful premise mixed with the nostalgia of childhood. Another aspect I really like is the depth of each character. I believe the author has really worked on the characterization within the storyline. Thank you for the detailed review.

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

Post by dragonet07 »

This book certainly sounds suspenseful. It’s not at all suspicious when someone is arrested and then their older brother emerges once again right in the middle of the main character’s troubles. Between that and the childhood trauma of watching a friend die, this story seems like a page-turner. Thank you for the helpful review.

I was happy at the beginning, since the book promises so much. But the profanity is a no for me. Nice review though.
