Enjoyed being in all these characters heads again, seeing the day of the betrothal party! Really great read!

*First read August 30th, 2012*
Such a great short story, loved seeing more of this world! There's hints of where this series could go, and I can't wait to learn more!

I LOVED this short story!! It was so amazing to read from other people's point of views!! I especially loved from Finn's and Loki's POV! I can never tell what they are thinking and I LOVED finally knowing!!

I loved this! It was so interesting to see the different perspectives from our three main dudes. Finn’s was pretty boring, but Tove and Loki’s snippets were really enjoyable.

One Day: Three Ways is a short little read giving a look at life in the Trylle world from perspectives other than Wendy. Were it not for the fact this story was included in the combined edition of the trilogy I own, I doubt I would have read this story. In truth, I was disappointed with the first book and had to force myself to read the second. Add in the fact I’m not the biggest lover of short stories anyway and there was very little leaving me willing to read this.

Still, as it was a short read and it was included between the pages of books two and three in the combined edition, I decided to mirror the way I felt towards the short story placed between books one and two by saying ‘screw it’ and reading it.

In truth, The Vittra Attacks, the short story that sat between books one and two, was a rounded down one-point-five-star read. With One Day: Three Ways, however, we have a short story that is a solid one-star rating. There was potential with this one, there was the chance to see three interesting perspectives to add more to each of the characters and their storylines, yet it failed to hit the mark. In fact, I feel as though it was a handful of pages that did nothing for me. I could have easily skipped this story and I would have been perfectly fine.

Honestly, I think a lot of it boils down to how I expected much more from this series than I was given. As I’m not invested at all, the short stories are even harder for me to enjoy than the main books.
