2.0

While this is just a novella and understandably short, it definitely seemed a bit rushed. In terms of the spice, it definitely was descriptive, without being too much. The writing style, while not bad, just threw me off quite a bit. There’s also a lot of unnecessary detail included, for example the focus on the color of Cara’s lighter? It didn’t really make sense nor was  it relevant to the story telling. I was having to re-read to remind myself of the situation. If the writing itself wasn’t so confusing and all was less rushed, this could easily get more stars.
