From the title to the actual story, this piece is nothing less than engrossing. Jacob Holley Kline describes his first kiss in a vivid story. Jacob has the gift of imagery. He takes the audience back to 8th grade to meet Raven, his first kiss. From the beginning, Jacob hooks his audience with the way he describes a kiss. I liked that he was repetitive “It was Raven”; “You’ve got to make compromises “. He was able to create laughter among his audience then make things more serious. To be a good storyteller you must be able to create mood in seconds. Jacob could do this. I felt the piece came to an abrupt end. The story was amusing and light hearted. If you’re looking for a giggle, this is a great piece to listen to.
