Does this sound too whiny? by Julia Elisabeth |
I think the main character sounds mean, not whiny. The snarling and the "It wasn't hard to lie to someone who was pathetic" line made me think she was too harsh. I understand the character's frustration, but in this piece she comes across as a vicious person, and I really didn't like her. JMO.
