Again, I find myself having a little trouble figuring out where to start. I think I’ll go with my pickiest thing. Characterization. It was good. Granted I didn’t see as much of some characters as I’d like top have, I enjoyed what there was. Tara was well done considering the situation she was put in from the beginning. It’s hard to see how a person would react if under circumstances not explored on the show and I think Tara was right on.

Willow was a bit stronger in some respects, but I liked it. Her outlook and perspective on magics was a little sweeter than we see her in the series at this point was my only real complaint.

Buffy was barely there, but what she did was in character. Strong, the slayer. I don’t remember he being a morning person though.

I’d also like to commend two points I noticed halfway through. The moment Tara finds out Buffy is The Slayer; Chosen One was well done. I would have liked to see it on the series. Not that Tara would automatically know what the slayer was… but you know? It was sort of eased into on the show and I never liked that.

Second point I’d like to commend is a witchy story-line. We get very few purely witchy story-lines unless someone’s eyes are going black. I like that witches were the innocents in need of protection.

Ok, back to review

So then we have BB problems, and all the sudden Tara is super wicca. Cool… but how? Willow. Of course. This is reading like a very sweet love story, which I like.

The story was simple, but sweet. Well done and a fun read.

I can seet he problems of the story. It is a first effort, some wandering and yes repeditive word usage, but I liked it despite them. 90
