This story was really good, I almost cried reading about how they bullied her. You made it so harsh but I think that is what made it such a great story to read.
I liked this story. I liked her as a character, she was really funny and I laughed out loud at some parts. I liked how she and Zacky instantly clashed because they were too much alike. Each chapter was believable and engaging, making you want to read the next. The grammar and punctuation were great. The lead character's emotional background was rich.
The only problem was, and this could be a personal issue that only I have, the boys' bullying was far too harsh. I can understand them feeling frustrated and blown off, and wanting to retaliate. But to come to point of punching and drawing blood? That's unforgivable. I couldn't like any of them except Matt after that.
I continued to read, hoping to see Matt step in, but he never did. That made him too weak, in my opinion, to be a love interest I could truly accept. Yes, his feelings were hurt by her rejection, too, but he gave up too easy. When he told her he loved her, I couldn't find it in myself to truly believe it. I can't imagine a guy who would let any other guy - any at all - hit or push or punch the girl they loved. Not while they still were drawing breath.
So in summary, I really liked 80% of it. If the bullying hadn't been so harsh, and Matt had stood up for her even once, it would have been 100%. I think you're a good writer. And I would definitely like to read more from you. I'm sure I will in the future.
I loved this story. It was hilarious. And sad, At the same time. Sage is One of the funniest characters I have ever read about. I love the Way you made the Avenged boys. This was truly an amazing story.
WOOOOOOOOOOOO! IT PAINTED SUCH A PRETTY PICTURE!!! I LOVE ITT!! Its sad its over tho :( BUT I STILL CRAVE MOREE! :] GOOD JOB ON THE WHOLE STORY :) ill be reading your other stories as well
Hi =) i absolutely love this story =) even though i just discovered it today lol just something i wanted to let you know about my perception of reading it, i though sage got too much blame for the whole thing; in the second last chapter, she apologised to them and they didnt really claim responsibility for bullying her. especially since she went through all that friendship tiffs with sarah and she's wayy out of her comfort zone, i just thought that zacky and the rest could have been a little more understanding; or atleast discover why she's a bitch most of the time =) but thats only my opinion; i still loved the story and the outcome =) thanks for writing!
Gosh, I feel so bad for Sage for having all of this guilt on her now, and Zacky better just stay strong. I can't believe Brian would still be so mean to her after she almost got hit by a freakin' truck though! :O
