Review::

1) Title:  5/5
Title pairs well with the concept and conflicts within the work.

2) Cover: 5/5
Cover is attractive and appealing, it gives a sense of allure and incites readership.

3) Prologue : 4/5
Blurb was short yet had all hints towards themes and rising conflicts to be expected. However, splitting it into several paragraphs makes it unnecessarily lengthy. Interest is there but its structural integrity is unstable[4].

4) First Chapter: 4/5
The storyline is immediately evident. Descriptive skills and pacing paired beautifully together, one could imagine the characters, how they interacted and visualize the world concocted. It gave insight into rising themes and possible conflicts; making your readers work for it. Very lovely first chapter, although dialogue did drag it down.

5) Character Development: 9/10
This work is still in progress, even so the immense quirks and humanization of characters and their interest was refreshing. One could see from both ends with the narrative tone used. It almost became a tug of war between the two MCs and it was fun being on the receiving end. However I do think some lines and scenes could be more subtle and not outright telling to engage readers a bit more.

6) Plot: 7/10
The plot moves well and unlike how I thought it'd be. It came across as more predictable but still interesting and not in any way losing excitement.

7) Writing Style: 13/15
Tones used were evident and bold. Narrative skill was set and paired well enough with pacing. I do think there needs to be a little watering down on description.

8) Dialogue 6/10:
My favorite portion of the storyline is the narration leading up to dialogue and statements, however, I found dialogues to be rigid and unnatural. It felt forced and at some point didn't flow freely with the amount of anticipation leading up to it.

9) Setting 6/10:
Setting was very well visualized, scenes and places had a familiarity to them and as a reader I could recall every detail. However, some scenes need to be more polished, more vivid and show the characters and supporting characters relating to their environment.

10) Emotional Impact 10/10:
Emotions were well communicated and the Author used more of showing and not telling which is highly commendable.

11) Reviewers Opinion 15/20:
Your work was a breath of fresh air, it was satisfying and engaging. What intrigued me most was your ability to interact with readers with those little comments made at the end of each chapter, it was almost like a diary log. You are skillful and talented and I hope you're able to attain your goals. Thank you for choosing our shop!
