Description

Carrie Blackburn was a simple woman who wanted simple things. A good home and job. Plenty of time to enjoy her hobbies, especially cooking. Having good friends and maybe find her life partner one day. Too bad for her, life seems to have other plans.

Lossing her parents at the age of 9, then her grandpartens at age 14. Ending up at a poor orphanage and stayed there until she 18 and could finally leave that place for good. Making and lossing friends left and right as she struggle through school who seems to have all kinds of shit teachers that don't give much of a damn. Having to take several part-time jobs just to scrape enough money to afford a lousy two room apartment that barely have electricity and a working bathroom half the time.

But she made it work. By gods did she make it work somehow for the next 10 years. And then one night, one single spark to set the entire shit building her aparment was part of on fire and Carrie found herself in the great heavens.

Or so it should have been. Turns out life had one more 'fuck you' to deal her when she left the mortal coil.

'What do you mean with[Undead]!!? The hell is up with these blue boxes and why is the hell is creepy ass looking, half-rooting human thing looking at me like that?!?' are just some of the things that Carrie screams inside her head as she wakes up in a cyrpt with a Lich who is seemingly checking each and every single skeleton inside. She included.

    This story need editing. Heck, just putting it on a word document and spell checking it can improve the grammar massively. There are constant spelling mistakes, common enough that you can't read a single chapter without some form of spelling mistake. There are also big blocks of text. Not massive, but big. Readable, but annoying.
    In a way, the constant spelling mistakes is also slightly amusing, because there's constantly some word that got misspelled funny.
    But the amusement wears off fast.
    Other than the major grammar issues, this story is alright so far. Because of the grammar issues, my understanding of what's happening isn't really hampered, but more like I only get a general idea of the situation.
    I was reading this story by skimming through it, because if I don't, I would be caught up on most of the grammar issues.
    But like I said above, the story itself still seems interesting.
    I'll continue reading this story.

    I really enjoy cooking novels. Unfortunately, I've been waiting awhile for the food in this story and haven't seen any yet. Also, this story can use grammar help. Once the food finally is made, this review will automatically gain another star simply for food because fantasy stories with food is one of my favorite types of stories.
