"I really liked the story. I thought it was very realistic, and I liked that I could feel as if I was in the bathroom. I felt I was right there next to Vincent, and at times I felt as if I was in Vincent's mind feeling his pain by staying 'alive' and in this world. I thought the story was very creative and daring with a very strong message. The only thing I might have changed would have been the sophisticated language that seemed forced in the beginning of the story. Other than that I thought everything worked well. I loved it." -- Antoinette Beedon, Chicago, IL, United States.
