| Tick Covering clothes are worth it. |
| Our narrator borrows some old clothes from her sister for a hike. What really works with this flash fiction is the moral of the story. I saw a lot of common sense being used, which is rare, but also, being prepared will keep someone safe. Good use of the prompt to tell a story that had a point without being preachy. This is told in the first person from our narrator's perspective. Past tense is used in the story. The dialogue accents the narration and captures the prompt of the story well. The opening paragraph engaged me right away. I wanted to find out what would happen next as if I didn't know... The narrator is a very practical person with a lot of common sense that I think connects with readers. Also, I like the sister because she's "everybody's sister," in a way and connects with readers on that level. It's perfect. There's a solid beginning, middle, and end. I did not notice and spelling/punctuation mistakes. My only suggestion here, and it's minor and a matter of style - maybe increase the font a little to make it easier on the eyes. The title sets the expectations of the story well. Good storytelling elements in a short fiction. Leaves you with a simple message - Common Sense will never fail you. An Angel Army Review
