AGGGHH!!! I just wrote a review and it got erased when I logged in!
Lets see if I can remember what I posted...
I printed off "the Grotto" last night and I can't understand why no one has posted a review for your lovely story, my friend!
Making love to Frodo in a hot springs..how much more *sensual* can it be?? Our harmite is one lucky lass!!!! The way you describe love-making in the warm waters is just wonderful and very descriptive. (WOO) I must admit I was reading this story while taking a bath. LOL
Frodo stealing kisses in the grotto was wonderful, what a naughty boy..er..Hobbit.
I love how Sam is still taking care of his master even after Frodo leaves Middle Earth forever, nice touch, Ariel. It pains me to think Frodo is all alone (you know what I mean) after he sails, what a wonderful resolution to this little injustice...

| What a charming bit of Hobbitt eroticism. You write very well--I love your descriptions. They engage the senses and transport the reader into your world. I haven't read much second-person POV fiction but I think it works very well in this case, as it allows the reader to put herself into the narrative and become a (willing!) participant. I have to admit I put off reading this series because I was afraid it would be just PWP-silliness but you create and sustain a believeable reality with plausible situations. I rather like the idea that Frodo, who suffered so much, gains his reward in the easternmost of the Undying Lands. Nicely done! |

My stars! That hits-to-reviews ratio is really atrocious! I'm sorry!
Mm...sweet! I admit, I have some resistance to second-person writing (I blame a bad Jay McInerney experience in college); my brain rebels against it at first--it can be presumptuous! But I made myself get over that and went along with it for this one, and I'm glad I did. It must be difficult to sustain that POV over such a long piece--excellent job. The sensual detail of place and setting was especially wonderful, and I like the tale. I think at times it may have been even a little overly-lush in its 'selling' of emotions for my taste--but that's more a taste issue than anything you're doing wrong.
Do you think that back in the Shire they tell their own tales about the missing hobbit lasses? Do they have any inkling where they go--could Frodo turn into a figure of folklore, the faery lover who lures maidens away? |
