for Sly Dog3/3/2013 c1 Rosie
Hey there! I'm Rosie from a website called A Drop of Romeo and I'm happy to say that your story has been added to our archive, under the category of One Shot! Here's your review:
Rosie Thinks: 'Sly Dog' is up there with my favourite one-shots on fictionpress. Honestly, I was surprised that it wasn't already on the site and so eagerly snatched up the opportunity to rectify that! The whole thing flows so beautifully, from beginning to end, so I barely noticed the passing in time as they went from strangers to more. The love interest is very much a stray dog - slowly taking over our MC's apartment and life. I couldn't help but fall in love with him a little bit - his actions were just so hilarious and goofy.
The story is very much description heavy, with very little dialogue, but this is definitely not a bad thing. It makes this story even more unique for me, giving it a much different feel. It's cute, romantic and the ending is just so utterly adorable I couldn't help but 'aw' aloud. It was just so fluffy, but it didn't make me feel sick from all the happy/romantic feelings - a perfect balance! The sentences are all generally quite long and do run-on, but this added to the overall feel of the story. I actually think it helped the flow of it and gave the reader the feel of really being inside the MC's mind. The author, at the end, makes a note that she thinks there are some awkward sentences in there. If you haven't noticed, I don't agree with this at all. There were no jolting sentences and no mistakes, as far as I could tell. Overall, this is definitely a one-shot great and deserves its almost 300 reviews.

You...quickly jammed this and pulled it off?! How is that possible! It's way too great a read to believe you "quickly jammed" this! xD So unfair. I'm jealous of your writing style; it pulls in the reader right away. Never mind the long, run-on sentences. I think it was all fine and the story flowed well.
That said, I like the ending. It was very sweet and well, totally unexpected. Thank you for the great read!
