I'm sorry to hear you go, @Bugsie2016. I'm having trouble keeping up with reading too. It hasn't been the easiest year for me. Post concussion, I have trouble concentrating at times. I wish you well and hope things brighten up for you.
1. Did the story draw you in immediately, or did it take you some time? If it did, how did it capture your interest?
Yes it definitely did. You draw Kass really well. I immediately got a sense of who she is as a person. I love the bit about her questioning whether it is a bad thing to love her hair so much. We all do that, when we have a part of ourself we're particularly smug about.
And wow I love the level of detail you go into. It's like we're reading someone's personal journal but at the same time, watching them through a window.
2. Did you get oriented quickly enough, as in did you get situated in the world and context of Kass's life and her surroundings and background?
Yes, I would say so. You introduced us to her world well. I particularly loved learning about her family history and where her name came from. Makes it an even more personal experience. And the chapters about the father, those were so sensitively written. The writing was so real.
3. Can you identify with Kass? Or another character? And if so, how?
Kass is a very different person to me, but yes, she's a well drawn character and I have definitely met people like her in my life. I also know many Ayesha's. (Secretly want to be them! lol! XD).
I guess I am a little bit like Cari?? I was the one who was always stealing my brother's toys. I liked them more than my own. We also pranked each other a lot. But I'm the one with the longest lasting prank. Every year at school on valentines day, I would buy my brother chocolates and lots of flowers along with a really soppy and embarrassing card by 'a secret admirer', just so he could be humiliated and have to lug all that around school with him. He never suspected it was me.
Also, omg, I was just like Andi in high school telling everyone the dangers of sweets and how they rot your teeth. ROFL! Also I love seaweed snacks! hehe XD
One thing I can relate to with Kass, is her fear of abandonment. I thought this side of her was really well written. It's ironic because the fear of losing people, means we push people away, which is exactly what we don't want. Don't you love the complexities of human emotion?
Oh I'm so terribly behind in replying, @simscognito. Thank you for reading. Yeah, secretly wanna be Ayesha too. She's based on several people I know in real life.
Abandonment issues are rough. Human emotions and rationale are very complex and tricky to navigate.
That prank is gold. Love it! My siblings and I pranked each other growing up. Best prank ever though was one in college with my roommate and friends, drawing chalk outlines on the ground outside the boys dorm and caution taping up the scenes.
Due to health related reasons, I'll be going on a mini hiatus till November 15. Sorry for leaving the story like this, but I'll be back on November 15 with the next update.
