Mike’s review of A Particular Boy Among Air Particles > Likes and Comments

Thank you so much for taking the time to read and review the book, Mike.

There is a lot in your review for me to reflect on. I’m still learning as a writer, and the insight that stood out most to me was your discussion of plausibility in worldbuilding. While many of the unusual aspects of The Shell were intentional, your review reminded me that readers experience a world differently from the way I imagine it while writing. Understanding where a reader asks “why does this work this way?” is incredibly valuable feedback, regardless of whether the answer exists in my head or later in the story.

I genuinely appreciate the thought and detail you put into the review. It has given me plenty to consider as I continue learning the craft and working on future projects.

Thank you again for reading!

My pleasure, Irvin. You do show good strengths as a storyteller, and the craft side is easier to learn than the ability to take a reader on an emotional journey, which you have. It's always good to see a beginning author who wants to learn and improve in order to live up to their full potential.
