A review by beastreader
The Houseplant by Jeremy Ray

5.0

I am not crying, you are crying. This was my first thought after reading this short story. Mr. Ray shows that even short stories can pack a powerful punch just as much as a full length novel. I loved that George was the narrator of this story. So, everything was experienced and felt through his point of view.

It was easy to feel for George, even if he was an houseplant. I for years and years have always talked to my houseplants. In fact, I recently got an Aloe plant about 6 months ago and named her, Allie. I talk to her and in return, she has grown.

Anyways back to this book. I just absolutely loved this story so much that I was sad when it came to an end. This is the first book I have read by this author but it won't be the last one. Mr. Ray has a new fan in me.
