All Comments on 'Of Monsters and Men Ch. 01'

You wrote that she "recanted" her story. "recant" means "take back" or "disavow" something you said before. I think the word you wanted is "recount", which means "tell". You wrote that she "adverted" her eyes. I think you meant "averted".

The whole story was rather ham-fisted, with no subtlety or nuance at all. I correct guessed the story's "twist" a few paragraphs into the first page.
