I just love this story and it keeps my interest so well. I hope it gets published soon. I will but it for sure. I like the dialogue and how it defines its characters. Sometimes I feel in my book that right now there is just too much narrative. It will have more dialogue if I could just hold the readers interest till then.

Comment from Carolyn Hilliard
Within minutes Betty returned a tray holding three glasses of ice tea and gave Betty the first glass.
[I'll bet Betty gave Margaret the first glass.]
It was very short. It flowed smoothly and continued the story well. Good job.

Comment from Shirley McLain
Great writing as always. It is such an important story and a very enjoyable one at the same time. I like the fact that you have caring people looking for Anna. I'm curious about where she went? Great job.

I think Anna found her way back to Bobby, or committed suicide. So much details. You're so informative. But those statistics completely saddened me. And it's Saturday morning. Let's hope my weekend picks up. Otherwise, I'll be thinking about such horrible crap going on around the place.
I think High School's everywhere should have a relationship course. Maybe senior year. That could lessen the domestic violence and stuff.
Have a nice weekend.

Somewhere I read that date violence starts as early as 14. I think maybe in 8th grade this education needs to beging. Thank you for your kind review.

I don't think dating should begin so young, but I suppose it's a socio-economic situation. Dating should start when the hormones can be kept under control (between 16 to 18). I'm just had some input. And I look forward to reading coming chapters. :)

This is very interesting and reads smoothly. You have chosen your words wisely to where your reader is able to see each scene as your paint it with words for them. God bless,

Comment from AprilShower
Oh, my! It's hard to believe that it is or was that high. It is very depressing to think there are 60 percent of marriages have violence in them. Maybe we should teach young people how to live with each other and how to solve their problems in a better way. You're chapter is well written, but very short. It is good that you are bringing this to our attention. Thank you for sharing this information in novel form. April

Comment from 7thpoet
I was a bit disappointed, not because of the story but because I have to wait now to find out where Anna is hiding, or if she is hiding at all.

I purposely don't want to reveal Anna's whereabout, yet. I am wanting my readers to worry about her too. Thank you for your kind review.
