timefliesaway 's review for:
The Secret Lake
by Karen Inglis
I found it a bit hard to get into the story; around the pages 15-20, it was definitely easier to get going. I don’t exactly know why. Maybe my mood today just wasn’t up for a sudden dive into a story, who knows.
Overall, i did enjoy reading the story. Once i was in, it flowed really smoothly. The characters were all very nice, even though I found Stella a bit annoying in the beginning, but still understandable. Jack and Emma were definitely my favorites.
I really love time-travels, although sometimes they can get very confusing with lots of plot-holes and all. This story I found rather wholesome, especially because their friendship basically went through 3 different time periods and that’s always amazing. :)
What bugged me though was the grammar. There were lots of missing commas and sometimes the quotation marks at the beginning of a dialogue was forgotten. The spelling and sentence structure was clean, or at least I didn’t notice anything. But for the commas... I don’t know, are there two different types of editors, one who corrects the spelling and one who corrects the commas?
Missing commas just really throw me off my reading rhythm.
Apart from that, I’d still recommend it. Story-wise I like it a lot!
