I think you may have gone a bit heavy on the social realism front. Otherwise this is effectively an epic.

And so the whole boyfriend thing begins. Somehow Kate's interactions with Amy seemed so much more interesting than this.

Rather a slow-paced chapter for its length.

Somewhat long-winded but the initial impressions of the premise are positive overall, however there are a few cases where spelling and grammar cause confusion, also one character's name is used where another is meant. Lastly, don't use brackets in place of apostraphes and quotes.

This story deserves more attention. Very good story and characters; I thoroughly enjoyed it. The only peeve I had was spelling mistakes, but I'll let it slide ;D
Author's Response:
Well at the time I wrote the story I was of the mind set that I'm writing a story for free and people should be grateful I went through the trouble of writing it. My attitude on that has improved a bit. I'm still surprised by how many people enjoy my first story more then my later ones.

Batteries acquire two basic ratings on them: Volts and Amps. Because laptop batteries do not haversack a absolute abounding aggregate of adeptness if compared to above batteries such as car batteries, a lot of companies actualization their ratings with Volts and Milliamps. One thousand Milliamperes equals 1 Ampere.

Not usually a fan of mega gts stories but this is probably one of my favourite gts stories ever.
First the bad points: okay you're probably gonna kill the next person who mentions spelling but sorry it was a bit of a distraction to an otherwise incredible story.
Next the length is both good and bad, bad because this really is novel length and good for the same reason. It does allow for great character development and descriptive scenes.
Last, though this is more of a personal taste thing, her great size. For me, when people start to become half an inch or less (comparitively speaking) interaction starts to become meaningless and a bit unbelievable. Kate's other superpowers like her hearing and sense of touch did help a lot with suspension of disbelief, but as I read it I can't help but think of her largest size to be no more than 500 feet. But that's just me being picky.
The good points outweigh everything else. Some may disagree but I liked the detail that went into some of the scenes and it really helped give a good feel of the sense of scale Kate had. The action scenes were great and so was the character interaction and development. I thought the ways she kept herself entertained and occupied with her little routines showed great creativity. Size not withstanding, Katie is probably one of the most believable and likeable story characters I've come across. There were times when I thought she was just like a real teenage girl chilling in her room - which just so happened to be a weapons silo. The only time I didn't empathise with her was how she acted when the army attacked her. It was understandable and I have no problem for the most part. But she just overstepped the mark just that little bit too much, which is why she lost Amy as a friend. That was a shame too because I loved the relationship they had it was really sweet and I personally wish that was explored further rather than introducing her boyfriend. But stories gotta go with the flow and I guess I'm being picky again. Maybe you could write an alternate storyline? (I keed, I keed)
Altogether a fantastic piece of work.

Great story, however it would have been nicer if you would have cut it into smaller chapters.

those poor soldiers (not the dead ones). just pluck! and they're going on a ride with a 100ft newborn. lol. it was good story overall. 4/5 for plot/description/etc. 2/5 for grammar, punctuation, spelling, syntax, diction, etc. you seriously needed a beta reader. you have a lot of homonyms switched up. i.e. knew=i knew you were up to something! new=i got me a brand new girlfriend! and that sort of thing. also, there were several times when i had to reread a sentance mutliple times to figure out what you were saying. i won't go on, it's not nice to rant in a review. overall, though, it was a good story.
Author's Response: I really wasn't worried about grammer or the such while writing this story. It was just meant to be something fun. Now I don't have the drive to go back and redo anything as my current works I find far more enjoyable. My later works I concern myself more with proper spelling and word usage.

What I like about this is that you are trying to tell a story, that involves a giant woman. Most people are trying indulge fantasies while telling a story, and it doesn't always work. Makes me proud to be an author.

good sotry. long but good attention to detail. wouldn't mind being Kate's dinner....

This story seems to be unique round here. There seems to be something for everyone, but the chapters are rather long-winded. There also seems to be hidden references to published works (e.g. H.G. Wells and Victor Hugo). However I still feel that you've done well, remarkably well.
Author's Response: I have no idea who Victor Hugo is and while I know that H.G. Wells wrote the time machine I've never read it. I'm just not interested in those types of works. Actually, if it doesn't have a uber fem or giantess in it I don't tend to be interested. I'm a fan of details and thus I tend to detail what I write a great deal plus I feel the need to make sure the reason for a happening is clear. This really wasn't meant to be a story for everyone whenever I was writing it rather I attempted to make Kate more real. She isn't entirely benevolent and indeed has quite a temper if she's pushed too far however she's not evil either. You reap what you sow for the most part with Kate and you reap more then what you sowed as well.

hay its me again this is the onley way i know to give you a messige thanks the typo thing i just though when you ment a meter i just though a meter X1000 but thinks any way. i just have three quisons for you.first one is how hot is the heat inside kate and how hot is her blood? two you think you will do another novel about kate? last one some where in chapter 10 kate is swimming and sed she doesn't need to breath air but doesn't she need air to talk to work the vocal cords. i hope you don't think this is insalt to you it just some curious questens i had. thankyou for anster them.

All you have to do is click on my pin name and then the contact link. Then you can send me your questions through email.
For your questions, the closer you get to Kate's heart the hotter it gets. Given the amount of energy her body generates it would be on par with if not more then the heat generated by a modern nuclear reactor.
No, I don't see me writing another novel about Kate. I had planned on it but then I began writing Lucy's story. To me Lucy in the inescapable guardian is everything that Kate was meant to be. So to me she's a far superior lady and giantess.
Kate only needs air as a medium to transmit sound waves and a few other things. However, it doesn't have to be air. Water is capable of transfering soundwaves as well.

ill keep short. like the storie a lot read chapters 1-10 one thought if you end up doing a nother novel about kate and you start where you left off i think it will be fun to through a twist init and have her give birth to a boy this time it will be cool to have him about the size of Gina and all it would be cool to kate and brian handel haven a boy that took after kate a little it would be quite instring to see thay handel haven a boy and can you imagen the teen years. good story keep it up. p.s. how tall is kate and how tall is her home?
Author's Response:
Kate is roughly a meter tall and her home is just a little taller. While it is possible for Kate or a giantess born from her to have a son they aren't giants. Their height is roughly the same as the average humans though they do have enhanced strength, speed and the such.
The major concern with a son isn't his strength though. Rather it's that his daughter's may become giantesses. However, no males that descend from Kate could ever be giants like their sisters. The male chromosone don't work as well with the genetics as a female does.
Author's Response: Darn typo, she's a kilometer tall not a mater.

This truly is a work of love for our favourite subject. Happiest's imagination is very broad, presenting both the gentle and violent ends of the spectrum. The only detractor is his missuse of some words, and problems with spelling and grammar. But overall, it's a great story.

This story never ceases to amaze me. I read it a while back and even made it to chapter 8 (where it was posted on other forums) before having to crash a little while from so much information. But I recently re-read it and it is just absolutely amazing.
From the excruciating details to the incredibly well-thought of scenerios, you can easily plant the image in your head as to what's going on.
I, personally, am a huge fan of long stories. I hate little stories that do nothing but cause arousal for the reader. Usually novels such as this don't get much glory but I'm glad to see the previous reviews because the author here definitely deserves it.
Props to you, my friend. ;)
Author's Response: I would have liked to respond sooner but I didn't know this web site was back up. Or did it ever go down? I thought it had.
I'm glad that you enjoyed the story and even enjoyed it's magnitude. I recently added the final chapters nine and ten. So now the complete story is all here.

Very well done. It took some time to read but I enjoyed it immensely. You seem to have taken time to develop
each character. Not only is this story far and away the longest I can remember reading I haven't run across one with a slower pace and detailed character reaction base. It's all so...simple yet...
Of course I have to mention all the creative gentle interaction you used as well. For gentle stories it tends to be limited and for violent it's limited up to excessive blood and gore. You found a couple plausible ways that weren't forces plus all the different games are just fantastic. Not to mention functional in the developement of Kate as a character.
All through the story you remained creative and realistic emotion-wise.
Between that and keeping the story in second person and leaving an open window into Kate's and anyone else's mind is good as well. Like the first review some of your typos (seen/scene and the like) are just simple mistakes but I don't mind. I can't be the grammar police, I do them too. And it's only to be expected in something of that length, it's all the more time for a typo. It's a long review but it would have to be given the size of the story.
Though you seem to have left it unfinished...I would love to see it continue.
Author's Response: It seems that I only uploaded chapters one and two here which is kind of shocking. I believed that I had uploaded all of them until I checked today. All well chapters three through ten are now here.
I'm glad that you enjoyed the interaction. The scenarios were quite fun to dream up now if only they wouldn't leave me with such a strong wish that they could really happen.
Thanks for the review feedback is always appreciated.

First off, i´m not a fan of gentle so far, being Hedin to be my favorite writer.
But this story, or should i rather call it epic, is just awesome. As the name says, it´s about her life, hence very long. I just hit the half part mark, but so far it got me hooked. The amount of work you must´ve put into this i can´t even imagine. There are a few lenghts, like when you say a friend is coming and somehow you still want to draw out the time to introduce them ( i.e. by writing about her doing this or that instead of hitting the point ) is both frustration ( as it kept me from finally getting tot he "real deal" ) as also ups the excitement what will happen when said person arrives.
Only drawback i had was some spelling mistakes, like close instead of clothes ( close = distance/near, while clothes are the Shirt or skirt you wear on your body ) that sadly rather often threw me out of the grip the story had me in just to re-read the sentence to actually figure out what was ment/worded.
But even with that this thing is just great!
