First of all, I don’t normally read futuristic stories, which might be a bad thing on my part because what you’ve got so far is amazing. I’ve only read the first chapter and I’m already completely hooked. Your descriptions of people are beautiful. I could see the older man and this woman perfectly in my mind. I could practically hear her heels clicking in this hallway. And I appreciate how well you kept the characteristics in line. When you mentioned she liked to be addressed as Miss and then further went on to only address her as Miss until the end of the chapter, that really showed her characteristics. Like I already mentioned, you did a beautiful job with your descriptions. I could see this woman’s almost smug expression. And at the very end of the chapter, when she was given the bundle, I wasn’t sure what it was and I love the fact that you didn’t do the cliché thing and mention a baby whimpering or crying, but actually waited until the very last sentence to even mention that the bundle was a baby.
First chapter is A+
What you’ve got here is gold. I really love this story and you’ve earned yourself a subscriber. :D
