I have 2 #Charloe Shippers that want to participate but can't make the 10ish pm time; I suggested they read the stories & comment whenever possible & then we can comment on what they said & vice versa, What do you think?

I write letters to judges all day, details MATTER people!!!
I'm with you Gizzi!! Totally drove me nuts, the entire story!

It Sucks the time zone differences, keep a lot of Charloe FF fans from joining, ya know, because they're asleep when we are having BC! I hate that! Because there are quite a few that would be here if they could!😰😰😰

Absolutely, Jamie. Anyone can post at any time that they want to. I check back over the week to see if anyone leaves comments

Ok, yeah, there were definitely details that were smoothed over. And not always well.

I know we're going to have many different types of stories here and some are going to be great and some aren't. I'm trying to keep us completely away from stories where the writing and editing are SO bad that it can't even be read. Sorry that some of us hated this...it's always a bit hit and miss with fanfiction.

Anyway, we're going to stick with the story (I'm sorry, Gizzi and Melanie ) So for next week, maybe those of us that enjoyed it can read the rest and get it done. Then our members who didn't like it can only skip the one week. Is that going to be ok for everyone?

Ok, I'll look for it. Won't be able to read it until tomorrow night though. Have to head off to bed here shortly.

And, Ice, don't worry about it. I'll suffer through as much of the remainder of this story as I can stomach. I don't promise to finish it, but I'll try!!!

I'm sorry Ice! You know I ❀️ you girlie! I just didn't like this story, but I'm not finished, I stopped at ch. 6! I'll keep reading it, but I don't know if my feedback will be any different! But I'll look for something positive while I read the rest just for you!
Your the bestπŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’žπŸ’•

Gizzi, if you hate it, you don't even have to finish it. Like I said, I'm trying to keep it in the realm of readable...cause believe me, there are some I skip over that would have your head spinning. I remember reading this story before and as I was reading through it, I didn't remember that there was that much of a problem with grammar and scene changes the last time I read it. However, the last time I read it, there was not as much Charloe to pick from, so those of us shippers were starved for it.

And Melanie, the same for you. You don't have to read it, if you hate it. I don't want anyone to be unhappy at book club.

Anyway, unfortunately, not all of our writers are going to be top-notch. But I did fall on the side of thinking this was a sweet story myself, so...what can I say....LOL

Alright, we will try to get through the whole rest of the story cause the chapters are short and I think a lot of us already read the whole thing anyway....hahaha.

OK, guys, thanks for being here for another book club. And thank you to Jamie for posting Charloe songs. I'm going to have to look those over.

Good night, everyone, and see you next week!

Random question.... Does anyone have the link to that not so partial review blog? The writer is wicked clever and I was in the mood to re-read some of her pro-Charloe reviews.... I've read it but always forget to save the addy.

Help.

Found this link, hope it helps:

The not so impartial review: Revolution : Missing You (More Charlie and Monroe)

I have to say, wow to Gizzi and Melanie for their very gutsy, cut-throat honesty. As a writer those are comments I fear but also desperately want because I want something that's telling me what I'm doing right and what I'm doing wrong. However, I would like to say that if you do give the author, GraceTakeARisk, your opinions about her story do it in a PM. It's nicer if you don't take her to task so publicly; I'd hate to see someone feel humiliated, especially a follow Charloe lover. I do have to say I agree with a lot of what you wrote, but I also try to find the positive when I comment too.

Question, Ice, are we supposed to still try to come up with a conclusion for this story now? Or are we just going to read it and be done with it?
