    Every part of this story was genuine and funny and I loved it. Your story structure/dialogue flows smoothly! 10/10. Philippa and Jane are major goals. Jane gives me total Kim Possible vibes, but I also got some Buffy vibes in there.

This one was hilariously and I genuinely felt for Philippa when she was talking about her valedictorian speech getting cut, like that sucks. I loved hearing your story and I really hope you continue to write cause you're really good at it!

    This was quite possibly the cutest thing ever. And if I wasn't already entirely too invested in your career as an author (which I definitely was), then I am now! Philippa's entire attitude toward Jane gave me life, and I couldn't have asked for a better ending. (Except maybe another short where they're together lol). I also loved the way you were miming the gestures as you read them! Anyway, I absolutely adored this and can't wait to read/hear more of your work!!!

    AAAAAAAH ILOVEITILOVEITILOVEITILOVEITILOVEIT!!!!! Definitely gave off some good fun Buffy vibes if that was what you were going for. Kind of also reminded me of "Collateral Damage" by Taylor Simonds, which is about a background character in an MCU type world. I'd totes be down to hear about your thought process and development ideas and stuff on this one, it was super cute and fun and knowing all the hot tea behind the scenes stuff sounds EXCELLENT! Also, your narration, *insert Lady Gaga really good adjectives gif here*! This is why I'm a bit picky about narrators for audiobooks, cuz I feel like they need to know the cadence and flow and voices/accents to make the story sound more real, and when its not acted appropriately it kinda kills it. But you know your own story so your reading of it was gorg! Also have you thought about doing narration more? Methinks it could be another nifty source of income and you do have great narrator voice so liiiiiiiiiiiike. Anywho, FANTASTIC work, love to you and can't wait for more!(?) ;)
