Review:TheGoldenKneazle says:
Hey there,

I really love the idea for this story - it's really sweet, and I enjoy the look into Pomona's mind for it :)

PLOT; It's only small bits of her life, but I really love this because it shows just what was important to Pomona through that. Her family seem very real, and it's the details that make it a really lovely piece. Her plant-love being born from a young age was a really nice one, and already you can see how she's a bit apart from the rest of her family; how she's different, how it will affect her.

CHARACTERISATION; You've painted Mona in a really nice way, just in her casual acceptance of who she is; in looks, what she likes, etc. She already knows that she probably won't be living up to expectations, but is trying hard to live up to them all the same, and she is just a very real person. The details of her plants really make us see that plants are really important to her, too, and you can really empathise with her through that. The dialogue really reveals her relationships with other people, which is great.

DESCRIPTION; The family life really helps you to get a grip on Pomona, and what she's starting from. Their quirks are really well described, and help you to imagine them too.

If I had to say anything against it, it would just be that I'm not quite sure how the Coldplay quotes fit in. It works really well as a fic, but sometimes the quotes seem a little OOC.

Overall, I LOVED it - 10/10 :)

Author's Response: wow, thanks for the lovely review! i have also had a problem with the integration of the quotes...i see, erm, heh heh, that you have realised that...
cause i think in my head i already see Pomona as an adult. when i write her younger, it seems not too out of place to also see her older--I KNOW THIS MAKES NO SENSEEE--so i put them in. but i am going to think about reworking them after i finish the last story.
but i'm so glad that other things worked in your opinion--i'm fond of these little stories, and i love minor characters because you do get to invent a lot of their world. i'm glad that it seems like important things i attempted *cough* to get across about Mona you actually got through reading the stories. i find that to be really cool, actually!
thank you SO SO much for this, it's very helpful!
