WITHIN
The Temporary Bartender (mc mf ff sf) (new) by AnonEMouse
–2.5/5 (not great, had some redeeming qualities)–
I must admit I’m no bar hopper obsessed with one night stands. Not much of a drinker, either! So, I had a little trouble getting into this, but it luckily ends on a completely different note. Written well enough anyway, if albeit a bit straight forward. Maybe a bit too much of a tear jerker, too, while feeling a bit overlong considering the synopsis gives it all away.

White Noise (j wilhelmssen) (mc mf md) (new) by j wilhelmssen
–3/5 (decent, not perfect)–
Interesting premise, I must admit. Of course, as I have written, the gov embedding the MC right into the cells may be more effective, but that’s superfluous here! 
No real heat for me, but the narrative was definitely enjoyable.

Barbie O’Gill and the Not So Little People (mc mf) (new) by Lisa Teez
~~3.5/5 (good, not quite earth shattering)~~
Amusing and a good read. Definite polish in its own style. Nothing came at me by surprise, save maybe for the end. This was definitely enjoyable.
