This was a good and quick read. For such a short story it had a strong beginning, kept me interested, and had a surprising end!
Title and Description - The title grabbed my attention, and the description drew me in. Who doesn't like reading about dysfunctional families?
Theme/Subject Matter:- I kind of figured out what the subject matter was before I began to read. But the way it was written was refreshing.
Characters - The little boy is the one who narrates the story. The reader can easily feel how confused and sad he is. He doesn't quite understand his position. And his parents do not try to explain it to him. Instead, they insist he's bad and hit him.
Originality/Creativity:- The viewpoint of this story is definitely original, different, and creative. Nicely done.
Setting - The setting is a small area, and the story is mainly focused on the window. The only escape from the noise happening from upstairs.
Emotion/Impact: - The reader can't help but feel for the little boy. Even despite things. Especially the last sentence.
My Favorite Part: - I think the ending, even though it's a bit disturbing, makes the story.
Summary: Thanks so much for sharing your story with us. I enjoyed it. Happy Anniversary!
