Your book is really good. The family bond between your characters, as well as the characters themselves, were great. Keep up the good work.

I just finished reading The Recipe. It was great, I enjoyed the images it brought to my mind. It was heart warming how the father used food as a reward at the end of the story.

You pulled the reader into your story from the beginning with the action. I liked the story very much. You are a great storyteller.

I did want to know if you consider the book for older children or adults. It's my opinion that you could say the man cursed at the children, without having to use some of the language.

Hey I know the subject is probably a turn off; just wanted to let you know some things. I am a very anylitical reader- your first scene contained a lot of curse words, which goes with it i guess.

I do appreciate your comments and changes will be made during editing. You brought up a point that I thought of, kind of. I tried to make the big man so tired of running that it was an effort for him to move the ladder. But you see, if I had to explain this to you,it could have... mehr anzeigen

I really enjoyed the characters you created. You enjoyed their personalities straight away. I believe though that you jumped subjects too quickly which made the flow of the paragraphs a bit jerky.

I found it difficult to pare down a full novel to a short story. I have had some good comments and right now the story is in the hands of an editor. I appreciate your comments./joeparente
