Featured Story:

We are now here at the last 2nd Monday of the year. After reading the below review, I think Aditus and the Review Team knocked it out of the park for 2024. Settle down with this story as we will have all new ones in 2025! Special Circumstances by lawfulneutralmage Reviewer: Aditus Status: Complete Word Count: 95,407 Special Circumstances caught my eye because the full-length novel is written by a new author. I had to try it. Jamie Artois (I love the name) is a police offi

Featured Story: Matteo Went Ahead

Matteo Went Ahead by Aditus Reviewer: chris191070 Status: Complete Word Count: 1,096 This short semi autobiographic story featured in the In To Deep Anthology 2024. This is a very short tale where we find the author drawing on true life experiences. I'd suggest having tissues available, as this story whilst only 1000 words really packs a punch. We discover what it's like to lose a parent, which will have many of us thinking about what the future may hold. A re

Featured Story: Sold Into Freedom

Well we are in the second week of September already, so you know what that means. Another great review! This one by @chris191070   Sold Into Freedom by Mikiesboy Reviewer: Chris1910770  Status: Complete Word Count: 82,796   This story is hard hitting, gritty and heartbreaking. We follow Matt, a young man who is taken from the street and sold. He suddenly finds himself in a situation that no one would want to endure. During his time he does meet some people who

Featured Story: The Rip

Enjoying August and the last real month of summer? Well if you are, or aren't , take the time to check out this excellent review on an excellent story, done by our excellent reviewer, @Parker Owens!   The Rip by Mark Ponyboy Peters Reviewer: Parker Owens Status: Complete Word Count: 42,794 It’s summer, at least here in the Northern Hemisphere. The sun is high in the sky, and the beach or deck lounge chair beckon, along with a good story. It’s just the time for The Rip.

Featured Story: The Brillant Boy Billionaire

The Brilliant Boy Billionaire by Altimexis Reviewer: W_L Status: Complete Word Count: 474,949 The primary reason for reading Brilliant Boy Billionaire is its sense of first-person adventure, especially as someone who has encountered similar stories over the years, such as my first, Dewey Writer's Brian and Pete series, starting with For the Love of Pete, where the excitement of a young gay teen is explored with a complex plot and backdrop. At first, it felt like an epic road trip t

Featured Story: Between the Lines

Not much of an intro needed. @spike382 did a great job at a difficult time     Between the Lines by Comicality Reviewer: spike382 Status: Complete Word Count: 45,928 I will start off by saying this is probably one of the hardest reviews that I’ve ever written since I joined the Review Team back in 2017.   I personally still feel a bit of shock that Comicality isn’t here with us anymore, and that he won’t see this review and leave a comment on it. I might have mention

Featured Story: Crossing The Moon

It may seem like just a week or two ago that we were reviewing a story, but it has been a month 😮 So why don't you all check out his story that @Timothy M. did a great review for?     Crossing the Moon by HinderToyBL aka Rambling Robin & Thirdly Reviewer: Timothy M. Status: Complete Word Count: 136,292 One of the great things about GA is that you can find a story about almost any topic, in a multitude of genres. Some are romantic, others serious, many are funny

Featured Story: Aunt May’s Magic

It is the time of the month for another spectacular review from our Review Team. This month @spike382 gave us the review.   Aunt May's Magic by Mancunian Reviewer: spike382 Status: Complete Word Count: 3,008   I was actually having quite a debate with myself about which story I would read for my last review of 2023. There were a couple of classic stories, that I wanted to draw new readers to, and a few newer stories that I thought would also be fun to take a look

Featured Stories: Inked and Beach Bottles by Carlos Hazaday

Wow! Did you notice the title? Instead of story, it is stories this month  Timothy did two great reviews from Carlos this month. Although Timothy will most likely blatantly deny it, I'm sure this is my birthday present since it is coming up  Enjoy!     Inked by Carlos Hazday Reviewer: Timothy M.

Featured Story: Inherited by Lomax61

Inherited by Lomax61 Reviewer: Parker Owens Status: Complete Word Count: 94,659 So perhaps you need a late summer thriller? A plotline thick with twists and unexpected turns? Something to binge-read on a week’s vacation under the sun?  There’s no need for a trip to the airport news seller. Instead, just tee up Inherited, by GA Author Lomax61.

Featured Story: Give Me Back My Prompts by Sasha Distan

Hope everyone is enjoying what hopefully is a great summer for you! If you are taking a vacation by chance why not take this interesting story with you and give it a read. It is quite unique to say the least.   Give Me Back My Prompts by Sasha Distan Reviewer: Aditus Status: Complete Word Count: 8,273 If the review blog was a TV show, one would probably call this entry a cross-over episode. The Review Team crosses quills with The Prompt Team.

Featured Story: Good Guys Don't Date Bad Boys

So is this a rule to live by? This review by @spike382 of a great story, I'm partially into and I would highly recommend the read!!   Good Guys Don’t Date Bad Boys by Laura S. Fox Reviewer: spike382 Status: Complete Word Count: 227,576   My favorite genre of story to read here on GA has always been Romance.  But a particular flavor of Romance I particularly enjoy is that of the College Romance.  Maybe because I wasn’t lucky enough to have a romance of my own in colle

Featured Story: Finding Good Trouble

Step back from the candy canes and cherry cordials, the chocolate coins and the Christmas cookies... otherwise the reality in this month's story review  by @chris191070 might just take a bite out of you. The holidays can be a time when people are usually kinder to their fellow man, but what happens when being that good person means more than holding open a door or saying please or thank you?  Finding Good Trouble by @Ronyx Reviewer: chris191070 Status: Complete Word Count: 72,532
