What does it mean to critique a story?
I entered a competition. I wasn't overly pleased with the story I submitted. Neither were the judges. Actually, that's not fair. One was enthusiastic. The other two sort of liked it, I think? All three had comments to make about it. I was happy to receive their feedback.

The Rise of Magicks
Nora Roberts has written book three of 'The One' series. In my opinion I believe that this could be a stand-alone book too. It started in the new town of New Hope with Arlys and her keeping her journalistic tendencies to keep all safe from the Dark entities that have arisen from the time of 'The Doom' and finishes there too where things are happening. This is mainly the story of her children and the teams that are formed to try to make a new country magical and to be safe.

Cleo and Sonya are enjoying their chosen professions and their personal relationships with Trey and Owen. They are still dealing with a dark entity which is a ghost by the name of Dobbs, but these four friends though they are skittish at times, but they are working together to beat Dobbs, and they also have a lot of help to do this. Cleo and Sonya are also planning a big celebration to show in a way that they are staying and show that they are the new owners of the manor.

Year One
Nora Roberts has done it again and this time it is a novel the first in a series entitled 'Year One' that starts out with a virus called 'The Doom' and the world goes berserk. Kind of like when Covid-19 started. This is a story that has three groups of characters that will have to find a way to survive the virus. In this first book it is all about finding a safe place and just being able to survive to see another day. All the groups are just starting to form into what will be magical both white and dark and yes this is a story of witches, but a fun read. I am waiting for book two for it hasn't arrived yet.

initialization.
Kardi Bradshaw 6 July 2024 Ever since I walked in, I felt like people’s eyes were following me, like I was a criminal. I couldn’t quite sit still, sandwiched in the leather booth between Hannah yapping about her wonderful boyfriend who wished he could join us tonight, and Lilith kicking my tight-crossed legs on accident; and as the Pink Floyd cover band took the bar’s stage and lights shone in my face and the beer-perfume-weed atmosphere got into my skin, my stomach clenched with the feeling that I actually was guilty of something.

Jackal. You are wild and timid. Are you binge-worthy?
The original Jackal is a story of the very bad guy on one side chased by a very good guy which was based not only on money commitment but on loyalty to their home country and their personal history between them. They were driven mainly by their professionalism and keen goal to achieve what they had wanted to achieve, mainly to be free. In the new version of this story, things are a little different.

Texas!
It has been a while since I wrote a critique essay on a Dana Fuller Ross novel. The last one was 'Oregon' and now this one is for 'Texas' the fifth in the series. This is the story of how the state of Texas became part of the Union. It does continue the story of Cathy and Lee Blake and Chet and Danny who are best friends ever since the first wagon train to Oregon. 'Texas' is a novel that to me covers the history of Texas and the Mexican War with Santa Ana, the president of Mexico in a creative and interesting way but does not go into too much detail of the war for it is started and ends at the end of the book. This is a novel on how this history affected the various characters in their personal and professional lives in helping to grow the United States.

Grimm's Fairy Tale#5
In reading 'Little Snow White' in Grimm's Fairy Tales one will get a sense that it is two stories in one for I got a sense of The Three Bears story as well when Snow White entered the dwarf's cottage she performs some activities as if she were Goldilocks and for the dwarfs they speak a few lines that to me seem reminiscent of the Three Bears story. This version as it seems to be is quite different from the Disney version that we all seem to like to watch at times.
