I don't usually have favorite lines or strong emotional responses beyond "I really liked this". Everything I try to reply with always sounds trite or stupid so I just leave kudos instead.

Commenting on fics I loved is easy. Heck, commenting on fics I hated is easy. It's the intermediate ones that are the problem, the ones you read just because you're looking for a hit of your favorite pairing or theme, the ones that sounded interesting in the summary but were just kinda there on execution, the ones you think might be really good but never quite make it there. "Thanks for helping me kill 10 minutes" doesn't go over real well, but what else is there to say?

I, personally, would be really pleased with "I really liked this". Sure, more personal and detailed reviews are awesome, but I get that someone just might not have much to say, or else not know how to say it.

These days I get kind of annoyed seeing people complaining about short reviews, because it can make it seem like no one appreciates them, when that isn't true. I do. I love feedback. For some people it can be possible to improve how they review (I've gone from one liners to essays), but that's hardly mandatory.

Even something basic can reassure someone that their story was on the right track, at least for the person who has that opinion. I guess if you're leaving kudos, you're at least giving authors some feedback, though.

Maybe I'm just picky, but if a fic is so mediocre that there is not a single thing that I liked enough to say "I liked character X doing this" or "character X saying that was cute", I don't finish reading that fic.
