Short and cute :) it's only shortcoming is that it was rather bland, nothing happened! And I laughed at rather inappropriate moments. . .Oh, and I would have liked more focus on the setting, and the whole mage and gem concept. It was very intriguing and I would have liked to see more of it!Recommend if you want a short, fun-ish, light read in between books. :)(and if you enjoy this genre, of course) I actually really enjoyed this story even though it was extremely short. I had no idea who Kaeck's secret admirer was and the twist at the end was interesting. I will say that at some point I was about as upset as Kaeck was, and the fact that Megan Derr was able to draw that kind of emotion in a short story is commendable. I wanted to immediately buy the next story but was extremely disappointed to find that it is $3.99 for a 47 page eBook. I understand that a writer needs to make money and I support all writers by buying TONS of books, but I thought this was too pricey for a story of that length. I enjoyed Admirer though and was happy to be able to read it via the Nook lending program and I do recommend this to other readers.
What do You think about An Admirer (2010)?
Very cute. I really liked Kaeck!ETA - 6/18/12 - *happy sigh* Just as good on the re-read.
