I would recommend your latest chapter to other reviewers to ready. Thank you for entertaining me in with your story telling. Keep on writing your entertaining book chapters with a creative pen. Rock on, my friend. Lovely day to you...Melissa.

This is so heart-wrenching. I wanted to cry, too. James should be a teacher, he has a wonderful way of explaining and simplifying things for others. Also, for someone who is supposed to be socially awkward, he is surprisingly empathetic. I feel for Alfina and the ordeal facing her. Linda

'Making Vegetable Soup' is quite a chapter that cleverly gives examples of the law and court procedures in a way his grandmother could comprehend. Comparing that to making soup is brilliant! The whole chapter is very well done, Sasha.

Hi Sasha,

I am sleepy and should be in bed but I had to read this story first. I feel so sorry for
Alfina, she must be so scared. She has been thrust into a world she knows nothing about. James is so kind to her and whatever she has to go through he will be at her side.
This is another astounding chapter....blessings, chey

Your writing is superb and your characters are rich in detail.

The dialogue adds credibility to the situation and fits the circumstances.

This story goes from strength to strength, you are a masterful writer and one who I'm certain inspires others on this site

I have only read about two other chapters of this work. It is so well written that I have been able to follow quite easily.

It is quite conversational in parts in a way that makes ther reader want to hear more.

Hugs

James seems to be dong a good job in explaining the situation to his grandmother. He doesn't talk to her like she was a child. He tried to explain the situation in terms she could understand. She probably doesn't know much about Charles' father because his grandfather took him from her at birth.

    That is correct, she knows very little about him. I am pleased you liked this chapter.

Clever title and addition of a "love interest" with the return of Rachael. James' analogy about the law and soup is excellent, and the ending of the chapter is moving. Well done- Joan
