review 1: This story was a rollercoaster of emotions, I was shock, gross out, impress, moved…gosh, I'm only talking about a short story here.Shock by the rape and beatings.Gross out, that the main character is an Alien with very sharps teeth like needles.Impress by the author imagination and the plot for such a short little story.And finally moved, it was a very weird nice story, with a happy ending…. if we can call it that.

That puts the blurb in a creepy new light... O_O less

Meh. Too short to provide any depth, or, well, anything really. Might have madea decent novella.
