Comment from Drew Delaney
This is good writing. The story is true to life in that many relationships sour after time and usually one wants out. You did a great job keeping my interest and the ending made sense, though I wouldn't advise anyone to follow that route.

Thanks for reading, Drew.
Sorry it took me so long to answer, but I was on holiday.

A woman after my own heart. That husband was a total idiot. It is obvious that the toxicology results would have shown the poison post mortem. I love the revenge the wife got in the end. Get rid of the bastard, stay out of prison and keep the money. A divorce would have bled her dry.
Good luck with the contest.

Comment from Janilou
Well, so she poisoned the poisoner. Quite the short story. I didn't find any nits but did just want to confirm that her name was supposed to be Amada and not Amanda?
My brain wanted to read Amanda but that was probably just me.
All the best with your future writing. You write very well.

Hi Jan,
The name is indeed Amada. It's a not very common Spanish name.
Thanks for reading.

It is a pretty name! :-)

It is an interesting story. Way different than most poems or
stories on Fan Story. While it was easy reading and it kept me in suspense
I felt the ending was depressing. I wish it could have ended differently

It's a great story and a good entry into your contest but, for the life of me I can not fathom why people who had been together for so long would want to kill each other. Great read. Good luck. xoxo Kiwi

Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This speaks a confident and righteous tale of a Catholic lady who after all attempts to adjust and continue a relation being failed and frustrated accepted a separation of heart for good; I liked.

Thanks for your review.
Comment from Mustang Patty
thank you for sharing this well penned story about 'the drink' for the contest. The story is so sad, and all too familiar. Love sometimes hits a bad patch and both parties are forced to behave badly.
Her soul would have been safer, and more restful, had she chosen the divorce. I think it would be hard to live with a death on your conscience.
Good luck in the contest,
~patty~
