I don't have much more to add to my other review of this chap except to say that I agree with Cabycake's review (her 2nd one--heehee) 100%.

I don't care how ya flower it up, Adie is running away - again. Not sticking around & getting therapy for herself, for one thing, and work thru the grief of losing Molly WITH Nick (he lost her too, yanno?). I don't give this relationship much chance now that she's decided to walk away from it (again).

Author's Response:

People do strange things in the face of death. Yes she is running, we can all see that but I truly believe that Adie hasn't realised that yet. Hopefully it won't be too late when she does.

Thanks hun

OK...sorry for my initial response to this chapter.  I was so angry with Adie after I read it that I couldn't form a coherant thought to give you a constructive review. 

I am not one of those readers that always takes Nick's side in a story just because it is Nick's, and in the beginning, I actually felt for Adie and what she was going through.  However, ever since she has come back I am completely unsympathetic towards her.  She is VERY selfish.  I was glad that she finally admitted that she knew this was hard on Nick, but then turning and going away and leaving again after everything?  I get that she needs to sort some things out for herself, but she needs to make a clean break from him if it is going to be over.  And they have done nothing to work through this whole Molly thing and going to Nepal to find herself isn't going to make her better.  They need to grieve TOGETHER, get through it together...otherwise, I don't see how they can realistically be together.   Adie is also in need of some serious therapy...not couples therapy, but individual therapy to work through her many issues.  She would learn to love herself by doing that!  So, when I said I am so over Adie in my first review, that is why.

That said...the quality of your writing is stellar as always.  I love the way you write Nick...he is human, flawed and sensitive.  He has really changed a lot in this story, but he is starting to get a little soft...I loved when he got angry here but then he backed up and gave in and didn't fight. 

Update soon...I wouldn't have so much to say if I wasn't passionate about this or invested in the characters/story.

Hugs! 



Author's Response:

I am totally loving how passionate these reviews are getting! It's amazing how people have responded in a completly different way than what I thought they would.

I can totally understand where you are all coming from. She is selfish but she has settled for a long time and not just with Nick. She has done things to please others and now she is taking herself into consideration, she is doing what she wants for a change and yes I think you are right in what you are saying, it isn't the right time. Nick needs her but in the frame of mind she is currenlty in I am not sure she will be much use to him, I think she would just end up leaning on him far too much when it needs to be more of an equal thing.

You are completely right in that Adie does need some serious therapy though! She defeintly needs some sort of professional help. But I am not sure I agree with Nick getting soft. You can;t give someone help unless they are ready to accept it and he knows that. Don't worry though the anger about everything will biol to the surface eventually!

Thanks for the review hun! I love to hear everyone's thoughts and reviews like this help me to make the story better because it shows me how differently people think! Hugs back at ya!

I am SO OVER ADIE! 

I will come back with more of a review later, that is all I can think right now, though. 

Hugs!



Author's Response: A lot of people feel that way! LOL!

Oh No She Di-int!! Going to Nepal won't do anything for Adie except aid in her (once again) behavior of running away. It's an excuse. Working in another country only helps distract her from addressing her personal problems (and there are many). She & Nick should be working thru these things together as a couple. Not as a guy in one country & a girl in another. And for months! This isn't gonna end well.

Good on Nick for actually showing his true emotions. At least one of them is starting to face their demons like an adult. ;o)

Author's Response:

I'm really surprised people see it like she is running again. Once you guys read about her in Nepal I think you will see it differently, it's not at all like going to work in an office to forget about things. She is going to be working in dang conditions, a far cry from the hospitals she has worked in in both England and America. The people she will meet will be poor and poverish, with extremely poorly children, some of which will die - it's going to be a huge reminder of Molly.

I think she is facing her demons but she is doing it in her own way. She is going to come back after some major revelations.

 

Thanks for the review hun!

wow I think that was the most mature conversation theyve ever had huh? wow. that was heartbreaking but hopefully shes doing whats right. cant wait for more!

Author's Response: I definetly think she is doing the right thing. She needs to find herself before she can focus on what she wants. Thanks for the review!

Okay so lets get this review rolling....

I don't even know where to start there is so much to cover. I'm still against Adie, for her to go to Nepal is not healthy I think. The reason I say that is because what is she going to do honestly? She's going to work, and that's all. How is she really going to deal with this situation? She can give all the excuses she wants but I honestly don't think this will be good for either one of them and again she is just running away; I don't care how you put it. I have a feeling that Nick might slip up and find some random chick(s) while she is gone.

For the record when Adie said "Molly defines our relationship" really pissed me off. Again she is just using Molly as an excuse. A baby does not define you're relationship, it's the people in the relationship that define it. I can't believe she would say something that stupid. Ugh!!!! She seriously needs to grow up and put her big girl panties on!

My heart goes out to Nick in this chapter because he made alot of progress in this chapter. He also had major self control during alot of scenes. I'm happy that he finally let his emotions and deepest fears come out. He really needed to do that not only for Adie but for himself as well. It shall be interesting to see what happens to Nick while Adie is away.

I hope that you write some sort of conversation between Adie & Rachel in an upcoming chapter, I'd really like to see how Rachel acts towards Adie after this whole debacle. I still think Adie needs a swift kick in the butt.

Oh and one more thing, I noticed that in all of your chapters you tend to write really long paragraphs several times in a row, I just want you to know from a readers point of view that we will sometimes skip over those because it is an overload of writing because the sentences tend to run together after awhile and you usually just want to get to the good stuff. Maybe you can break some of them up more. Just an idea. Keep up with the fast updating and I hope that things start getting better and HAPPIER soon!!

Author's Response:

Now I have warmed up my fingers for my respsonse! LOL!

I am going to have to stick up for Adie here. From reading the reviews I didnt think people would still be this agaisnt her, But hey that is what I love someone else's view isn't going to be the same as everyone else's. I personally think it's a good thing, she does need to find herself again, and I'm not sure who said it in a previous review, but she can't love anyone else until she loves herself, she is definetly not doing that at the moment. I don't think she is just going away to work either, I have been where she is going, I have done what she is going to do and it is an eye opener, it makes you realise how lucky you are, it is very good for the soul. I think you are definetly right in saying that at the moment but you will see some dramatic changes in her. I keep promising that don;t I? LOL!!! Hopefully by then end of the story I will deliver!

I am very proud of Nick in this chapter too. He has had some amazing growth, while Adie had almosr reverted! Talk about role swap! I think he understands why she needs to do it, even if he hates the idea. He is just petrified that she isn't going to come back.

Thanks for letting me know about the chapters, I'll try to tone that down a bit. I find reading chapter like that okay but for some others it's a bit much.
