Not long enough
I wanted more. Was a good story and it felt like it was just really getting going when it was over. Felt like a very sudden ending

Despite the fact that this book only has 59 pages, it was a struggle to get through it. The storyline seemed hastily crammed in, as if the writer had to stick to the number of pages, this was reinforced by the many typos and grammatical errors. Overall, the book had a lot of potential, but unfortunately did not live up to the expectations.

Today We Did
Suzie Edwards is an English major at college, living with her best friend, Melly. When Melly disappears, her boyfriend Craig is the prime suspect. Suzie is still waiting for news of her friend when her parents die suddenly. Are the two incidents related?
Weeping Willows is a quick read with a nice premise. The story has potential, however, the writing requires a lot of polishing. It was riddled with errors, and for some reason my copy was missing quite a number of ‘l’s, especially the second ‘l’ in words like Melly or chilling. This is probably to do with the conversion of the file, but I found it very annoying. There were some grammatical errors as well, but many of the mistakes were one word misplaced for another, such as ‘winching’ instead of ‘wincing’. It interrupted the flow of the story, and is evidence of a lack of editing. Spell-check is simply not enough. I think an extra draft or two could really make a difference here.
I usually like mysteries, but I found myself drowsing whilst reading this. The blurb sounded exciting, but it didn’t reach my expectations, it was only something to pass the time. I didn’t connect with any of the characters, and therefore had no investment in what happened to them. There wasn’t any suspense, and I was disappointed that Suzie didn’t even try to escape her fate. She was a weak and annoyingly boring character. I’m also a little confused about the start of the story, as Suzie remembers something from her childhood that seems to have no bearing on the rest of the story. There was no explanation as to how her family went from poverty apartments to a wealthy neighourhood, perhaps I missed the importance of that.
Weeping Willows is suitable for middle high school students and up.

Mysterious novella
It can be difficult to create a mystery out of a novella, and this is definitely a quick read. It was a good premise, but some detailed backstory would have lent to a longer story. It is an intense story with interesting characters and Suzie struggles deeply by missing her best friend, who disappeared. Would make for a great novel, with a little more polishing and chemistry between characters.

Good story
I enjoyed this story very much and only marked it lower than I usually do because of typos, which distracted me. A very good read, otherwise!!
