This was a fantastic and enjoyable read. My only criticism is that it was too short. I would love to have read this as a full length script, rather than a short story. That being said, I was highly impressed with Wallace's ability to draw you into the characters so rapidly. Her use of language and tone swiftly stirred emotion; painting a sometimes disturbing world.The personalities were easy to connect with, both good and bad, and you really got a taste for how the main character, Junie, absorbed the world around her. There were several hair raising moments, which I personally love, as well as tearful winces. The story line is thick with honesty, depth, and a mysterious rhythm you can't help but crave.

The Collector edition by Terri Wallace Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
This was a great short story and the main character deserve a full length novel. The main character could be the next evolution of the girl from firestarter.
Great short read. The author has done something rare; she has given us a heroine who is at once sympathetic and yet very frightening. We are drawn in as innocent as little Junie and are led along to find the dark, yet somehow satisfying truth about her and pretty much every other person in town. Spend a little time with Junie and Enid and you'll never look at lemon drops the same way again. Good, solid, scary fun.
This is a short read, but I could've stayed with it for days. I loved the characters and the things-you-don't-know-about playing out in the background, creeping up every so often to make you wonder just what the hell is going on here. You cheer for a small heroine who does terrible things with powers she can only barely harness, and through it all it becomes increasingly difficult to know who to trust. Delicious ambiguity that makes the mind reel with possibilities. I hope to see a lot more from this author. (and maybe from these characters? pretty please?)
the reviewer who said this was a little bit Carrie/a little bit Dexter is right on the money! Not to give away any more (those should do it) but well worth a read and for myself, I'm hoping to search our more writing by Terri Wallace.
I am very pleased with this short story. I managed to get this when it was free as it should stay FREE. It was very well written and I loved all the characters. I wish it had been a little longer, I didn't want it to end. Great book if you are sick or snowed in. 5 Stars.
Terri Wallace's story telling ability is outstanding. The voice is authentic, and each of the characters are clearly defined. I instantly took a liking to the narrator. One of my favorite parts of this story is that she did an excellent job of giving each character depth. Although nearly all of them have unlikable characteristics, I grew to like them all (well almost all of them) for the qualities that were likeable - just like in life I suppose.
This is a quick, wonderful read definitely deserving of your time. I highly recommend it, and I look forward to more of Wallace's work.
A young girl goes to live with her granny after the death of her mother. There she starts to collect secrets and to learn the different kinds.
This is a wild little tale. The pacing was perfect. The concept was original and intriguing.
I did find it amusing when I finished the story and saw the disclaimer that this was fictional and the people did not really exist. I really hope so.
Give this one a shot. You won't be disappointed.
