The story keeps getting better and better with each chapter. Keep on writing your stories are really great and I enjoy reading them. You make it so it's like the reader is in the story.
I echo below...the story just keeps getting better, I really enjoyed reading and savoring it...them all actually...but this one best!
But, Lizzie entire attitude really ticked me off (as a reader). She was unrepentant, it completely soured the story for me. Short sighted and selfish.
I still enjoyed it. But her attitude brought it down a full star.

This is by far the best I have read in a long long time. PLEASE keep going with it.
Your attitude in bombing a story before the author has finished it because he didn't tell it the way you wanted it to go isn't going to make him write it the way you want it; quite the opposite, in fact. You don't know how the story ends, it's not finished yet, and throwing your toys out of the play-pen half-way through is stupid and intolerant; if you don't like the way a story goes, leave, or write one yourself; bombing the story half-way through in a fit of pique makes you no friends and marks you as an inconsiderate jerk. This author writes his characters like real, complex, flawed, people, not 1-dimensional cartoon characters as you so obviously prefer, perhaps he doesn't want Lizzie to crawl on broken glass or slit her wrists as a penance while bleating about how sorry she is, because real people don't do that; her attitude is realistic, she can't fix what happened too long ago to fix, and the only people she feels she needs to apologise to are Darryl and her father; one doesn't need it, and the other was never angry with her, and she already apologised to him, so what's your problem? You admit you can't write, which mean you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, so grow the fuck up and keep your worthless opinions to yourself.
Coming from an Anon poster. Yeah, I will give your opinion the weight it deserves.
However, I did not bomb the story. It still got a good rating. Perhaps I should have said her attitude did not ring true to me. AND it was irritating. You can't please everyone all the time. I am still sticking with this storyline because it is well done and I enjoy it.

Please note, this area is for comment about the merits (or otherwise!) of the storyline and the character development, such as it is; if you want to get into verbal punch-up's or altercations with other commentators, please do it somewhere else; as both of you have fair points to make, I'll leave the comments up, but I will take down any others that seek to get involved or want to take a dig at anybody here; this forum is for fair and unfettered comment, not snot-rubbing and spit-balling, so please don't indulge, I'm sure you're all better than that!
This was an amazing story as always and i look forward to reading more from you and did any one else see that callback to mark and julie being his cousins very interested in seeing the potential in that 6 of 5
I liked your story.. Im just wondering if you ever going to pick up where you left off.. If so or you have already but changed the title.. Could you let me know please..Im enjoying reading this as much as your writing it..So please send me an email of where i can read more..Thank you..EMAIL: damwalow@hotmail.com
I just went through some more tissues. Your development of the story never lets up. It seems the story has more twists and turns as some of the best mystery novels.
Surprised that nobody has commented on the the closet that Lena would sit in when she wanted to do some deep thinking was also where the St. Christopher medallion was hiding. Nice link..
It's Ballykissangel. Tune in after a special word from our sponsors.

Nice save for Daryl's character development. 5*
I liked the story. Just as I like the soap, though I only saw the first two seasons.
of course, i say that about all of yours! i read the comments below - being in America no BBC other than crappy nightly news and an occasional show like "downton abbey"! but this could be a movie. very clever and interesting storyline. i might like this better than "Lori"!!! on to chapter 4
oh - and 5 stars!
Too forgiving too quickly. Should have tossed that bitch out of the house instead of instantly forgiving her and moving on. Ridiculous to work through all the emotions in one day, knowing that your dad's family has never contacted you for 25 years, your mom never contacted you and even had children.
