RE: Reborn: Chapter Thirty Three "One Down"
With regard to the arrangement of the chapters, I feel that the recent trend has been beneficial to the series. Talking about switching the focus between Anna and the brother, then to someone else. The little pauses provide a kind of reprieve and somehow prolongs the longing for the main story. So, great job on that front.
I've been out for a couple of days, so I'm glad to finally find the time to catch up. I see that @verbal-d has already done a great job summarizing everything, and I fully agree with his sentiment. I can't help but feel that this is the beginning of the real story and the previous chapter now seems like a prologue story or a prequel series. Sort of like Anna's origin. There's nothing wrong with it, it just suddenly feels like the story has taken on a different tone.
I can't wait to see what Anna's interaction with the father would be like. Given your real-life admiration of Jeffrey Dean Morgan, he's bound to have a strong characterization. 33 chapters in, and I'm still enjoying the ride. Great work with this, my friend!
You don't have long to wait for that interaction, that chapter is up :) You're absolutely right about the tone change, that's definitely why I consider this Part Two of the novel, and there is going to be more additions, more twists, more kickass supernatural characters :)
Ooooh, I can't wait! I already have the new chapter queued in my tab and will be reading it in a bit. I've even linked to it in the latest SILVER LINING as well :) I apologize for the delayed comments, my friend. I really try to digest it every time I read it so that I could leave the thoughtful comments I'm known for.
