Review for Decisions, A Godric and Cara Story by Meridian

Hi!  I have a story that I talked to this little birdie who flew in my window tonight, and told me there was an update coming for this story.

Also.  From now on, I will be posting on Tuesdays.  We have talked together and Tuesdays will be mine.  I will allow the other ladies tell you their days.  This does not mean we can’t pop up on another day, so don’t get complacent.  We like to shake things up around here.

The Twisted Fairy Tales contest is still going on!  Please submit a story to us by July the 30th deadline.  We also have a tumblr account that we have put some ideas out there to be used…

Review:

This is a story I didn’t start for a while. Why? Not because of me not liking Meridian’s work, but because I get captured by her stories and hate waiting. So I generally wait awhile and then start the stories. Hey, she does the same to me! LOL.

This is another Godric and Cara story. Godric is from TB, one of the few great things they actually did was introducing him as Eric’s Maker. Cara is from Meridian. She made up the character, and did an awesome job with it.

In this story, there is not much canon at all. Eric is Godric’s Child. And that is about it. The Club is not the same, nor is the backstories.

Instead you have a beautifully made world of Meridians invention and you often find yourself at the end of the chapter glued to the screen yelling at it saying, Hell NO!! More!!!! (Shh keep that part quiet please! I try not to tell her how much I want to scream and yell.)

The story starts out quite innocently. Our Lead Character is out at the local bar having drinks with her office workers. She tells of odd things, like her coffee being handled with more care than the other’s more expensive drinks. The fact that a new waitress had known to only fill the cup half full of coffee to allow her more milk in her coffee. She also had a sensation of being watched. She also wonders what it is about this club that they all keep coming here all the time.

This is only the beginning of the questions. The way Meridian describes the beginning of the story, is enough to hook you right in. You are snagged by the wording, and the mystery. I will tell you know, she is good at that. There is still a mystery going on (even though you solve the one that you started off with) to the point that I am impatiently waiting on the next chapter. Which a little birdie told me will be up in a day or two.

I highly recommend this one. If you have never read a TB story, then you are fine to start here. In fact, you would be better than the rest of us, who have the canon in our heads and wonder all the time even more mystified on what is going on. She acts like her readers have not read anything before, so you are fine to start off. It is her world, one that exists in her head and none of us are familiar with it. But I warn you, if you start, you too may start banging your head on the monitor, demanding more.

Good luck!!
