Story Chosen: Just Like Juno (by Jen)
Reviewed By: matticus01
With Juno it started with a chair.The
Best opening line to get a person hooked. Just like Juno is about
Matilda Hunter who takes a pregnancy test and going through her mind
what it would be like if she was pregnant, just like her favourite
movie character Juno McGuff. In the beginning you read about Matilda
being visibly upset and later taking a pregnancy test. While you will
have to find out if she is actually pregnant and who it would be to,
through out the Fic you are thrust into Mattie's world, her mind and
her feelings on everything from love, hate, life and even love and
family.
Just like Juno is a one shot in which Jen has expressed
so much emotion with such belief that from the second you start reading
it you are hooked to find out more and more about what bought on
Matilda's turmoil. The ending was very subtle and was ended perfectly
and I wouldn't change a thing about this fic. 10/10, Jen!
Story Chosen: Hateful Words (by Jody)
Reviewed by: Zetti
This
time I have chosen a fic close to my heart; it is called Hateful Words
by Jody. You may be wondering why it is close to my heart as it is Aden
and Belle arguing not happy. The reason I love this one shot is because
Aden hasn't taken full responsibility for his actions and he has to
realise that
In the opening paragraph a lot of descriptive words
are used but to me that emphasises the situation and image in my head,
she {the writer} also goes back to Belle's love of photography and uses
it as a calming down tool, which for me is very effective. The actual
conversation between Aden and Belle for me is interesting as I think
most fans would have wanted an argument and then making up but in this
one shot that doesn't happen. It isn't a bad thing it is actually quite
endearing to see how a fan of the couple can write tension and angst
between them. The dialogue throughout the fic was thought out really
well and I loved the descriptions of how they were saying, but the one
thing that I love about it is that Aden finally sees what his actions
do to others and for me that is a turning point in Aden's life.
