Nice. I like your story. You made you character Charlie come alive with his amusing dialect. I saw that contest but I didn't realize you could turn it into a book. I didn't read the rules. I'll check in to see how the next one dies.

That's a big bite in the behind. Escape one horrid fate only to die of pneumonia. Especially after all of the trouble that he went through to escape. Your chapter is very well-written, interesting, believable. I look forward to reading the next one.

"20 Days to day and idiot"
Is a Twenty Days to Die contest entry.
Rich in Theme and Imagery.
It read well and Flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
....
Complete Synopsis:
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly!
And, good luck with this.

Hello
This was a catchy story. The fact that you used Polizei made me smile. I live in Germany.
Ah I found quite a bit of SPAG and think it might be on purpose... it being the POV of a refugee who doesn't speak the language well.

If so let me know and I will upgrade the stars.

If they are mistakes let me know, I will point them out. You change them, I upgrade the review.

Ok?

    Hi
    Okay .... but you know if you made him speak with broken English and fixed the rest... it would give him more character..
    Just a thought, because he is quite the character!

    Communist curtain
    I would be caught
    immediately caught
    I swam for it
    I crossed
    just ran
    that escaped.

    But really consider giving his voice, when he speaks, an accent...

    So what should I do? This is my broken English 🙃I know I shouldn't write in English, but I can't stop this impulse if just writing

I love the way you described Germany, it makes it so easy to imagine the situation. Yes, saying that something is for your safety rarely means that. Great ending to the story, it sure would sound strange to anyone that one has managed to escape from communism only to die of pneumonia.
