Review Detail of WinterBud in Angel Smile

This story tackles an extremely sensitive topic, and before anything else, I just want to praise the author's bravery once again. I can't help but remember Dumbledore's words -- about choosing to do what's right over what's easy. Because the author writes so well, and her characters are all so distinct, this story will really take you on a ride, like what the other reviewers said. Part of that ride is seeing the story unfold through a certain b*stard's eyes, and it could either make a reader turn away from the story or hate hate hate on him so much that you'd just want to get inside the pages and kill him yourself. I'm obviously of the latter camp, and I gotta say, I particularly loved how the author handled volume 1's ending. It's going to have repercussions on the siblings' psyche, I know, but they took the beast by the throat and did him in using their own will and power. That's going to count for something. Please give it a read (the sensitive scenes are marked, so if it's triggering, it can be skipped). I'm looking forward to how "Smile" would unfold and what changes the three main characters would undergo. I am rooting for them, most of all for the little girl that "Angel" once was and the strong woman she would become.
