This one was GOOD. Solid writing, experimental format, interesting narrative. I thoroughly enjoyed it, found myself compelled by the story and I thought it was perfect length. Most of the shortcomings were just lack of context for some things. When you get to part three you understand the intention, but there was just a tiny bit of something lacking for me.
