Wow. So, first of all, I need to admire the really beautiful and summery layout. It's very pretty and bright and it doesn't distract you from the story, but just adds to it, really. It reminds me of bright summer suns and warm winds and the waves rolling over the shores. It really is beautiful. And your writing, oh my gosh, just flawless.
There were no mistakes and the flow was continuous and bittersweet, having known from the get-go that Floyd was going to break her heart. I love how you summed the entire summer up in just a handful of paragraphs, that the relationship and the downfall were just as quick as the summer itself; as the story itself. I liked that a lot. I had this sad little smile the entire time I was reading it, shaking my head and feeling so sorry and sad for her when she walked in on him. Though, that little twist at the end, I actually gasped and dropped my mouth open. I wasn't expecting that and it really made my heart squeeze tighter, made me feel so much worse for her. I loved this, this was really flawless. Keep writing and good luck~
Your comment, just oh my gosh. It means a lot to me that you guys liked it and that I was in the honorable mentions section. :') like, just ugh.
I've been so disappointed in my writing here lately so it feels good to know that there is someone out there who genuinely enjoys reading it. I guess I'm not one of the people that can just write for themselves.
