review 1: Reviewed for heartsonfirereviews.comThis is part of the Less Than Three Kiss Me Quick Valentine bundle. Seth is a college student, lonely, busy and harassed by certain classmates, especially Devon and his friend Mark. The only thing that makes his life better is his online friend and confidant, Atropos. They connect online and share conversations about college life, difficult days, and in Seth’s case, the ridicule and humiliation he suffers at the hands of Devon Parnell and friends. The odd thing that Seth knows and Devon doesn’t is that Devon and Atropos are the same person. Seth found out by accident and has never shared the information with Devon, too afraid of losing his online friend in Atropos, never mind that the nemesis Seth is talking about is the self s... moreame guy. As the story progresses, Devon begins to realize who Seth is and connect him to his online partner. The difficulty I had with it is that the point of view of Devon, once he realizes who Seth is, tries to make his actions innocuous teasing, instead of the mean spiritedness they came across as when he did them. Suddenly the remarks are to be considered no big deal. Devon himself admits “He wasn’t sure Seth would even let him in. Devon had been not exactly kind to him over the past year…” It made me wonder then, why is Seth suddenly now attractive? And when he gets upset that Seth knew Atropos’ identity and didn’t mention it, well, I can see why! This short story was so difficult for me to rate, because while I love the whole “online to real life” idea, there were quirks here that I found difficult to accept and keep liking the character as much. For the sake of Seth, I’d give it a four, yet Devon is a complete jerk at times. I like the concept of online friends meeting in real life, and Seth is a sweetheart. Hopefully, Devon will be as he was as Atropos and they will get their hea!
review 2: Digital to Analog is a smooshy little Valentine short. The main characters are undergrad electrical engineering students — a breed of student I hold near and dear to my heart. And around Valentine's Day, in the middle of winter, college days can be dark — literally and figuratively. Sometimes classes are awful, labs don't work, people suck, the weather sucks, the text books make no sense, maybe a different major would be better, and inevitably something else goes wrong. For some reason, that's the background of what came to me when I got the Valentine call. But, being the happily-ever-after oriented girl that I am, I couldn't let that be the whole story for the main characters in Digital to Analog. I hope you enjoy my inaugural release. less
