This past week I had the opportunity to read the Sniper as one of our short stories. This short story stood out to me more than any other story. I think what got me is the military part, and what happens at the end when he kills his brother not knowing it was him, and walks down to see who he shot and looked into his brother's eyes. This was a really good story in general. There was not really any parts that were bad, good, or even just plain stupid.
At the end of the story it ends with, "As i walked down the roof top and onto the dusty road I look down at the person I shot, pulled off the bag, and looked into my brother's eyes." This was just a really good and shocking part. I don't know why but I just enjoyed it.
Hey Bennett,
