Fated Mates (Taekook) - Hells07dealer 

Book cover (2/5)

The cover is too simple. I didn't really like the cover. It clearly gives the vibe that someone amateur has made the cover. Also, the font style isn't something to be appreciated either. Maybe take a help of a cover shop.

Book title (3/5)

Really common title. I could find too many books with this title on Wattpad. The title lacks creativity, however, it's related to the storyline.

Blurb (1/5)

I found too many mistakes with the blurb. You wrote this in the first paragraph:

All omegas were killed by an unknown person or beast, what they call him 15 years ago.

If you write "were," then you can't use the word "call." Instead, it should be "called." There is a change in tenses in this one sentence.

Also, the sentence before and after the above-mentioned one is in the present tense. Those sentences are about Taehyung. I don't see the reason to add this above-mentioned statement in the middle of Taehyung's introduction. It disrupts the flow, making a reader confused.

Also, let us talk about the second sentence.

Jeon jungkook the royal true blood alpha....

It should be like-

Jeon Jungkook, the royal true blood alpha.....

The comma is necessary, or else it's the wrong English. Also, try using names in the upper case. It's not "jungkook" but "Jungkook."

I found too many mistakes in the description. Also, if possible, try mentioning who is top and who is bottom. That is an important detail to be mentioned especially when you write a SHIP book. The reader must know what type of book they are jumping into.

When we talk about SHIP readers, some are very particular about who the top is. They read the book based on that one detail only. So, mentioning it is necessary in the description.

Plot (5/15)

I can see you've worked hard. But this is not how Wattpad readers need a book. Ship books have a huge scope on Wattpad, and there are many talented ship writers to learn from, as well as to compete with.

Writing style (3/15)

I won't comment on how your writing style wasn't one that was the most appreciated. As long as the storyline is good, I can let go of the writing style. However, there was no description. I felt like I was reading those Youtube fanfictions where they use dialogue format with zero emotions conveyed and no description shown. I would suggest you to read more books, in order to know how Wattpad fanfiction works.

Grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation marks (5/15)

I could see many mistakes with all three. There was an abrupt shift in tenses. I feel you can do much better.

Character development (2/15)

I can't really talk much about character development because I couldn't see much about them. It was just dialogue with hardly any description of characters or their expressions.

Emotions conveyed (4/15)

Overall connection as a reader (4/10)

Total (29/100)

You have potential, please don't let it go to waste. You will find some of the best Ship books here. Just go and read them and don't stop writing. You'll improve with time because I can see creativity and talent in you. I always suggest this to the writers who ask me for tips.

"Be a good reader in order to be the best writer. You need the patience to read a book of the co-author, and only then you can give the best books to your readers."

Good luck!

The Half of It (Taekook) - taetebts 

Book cover (1/5)

If it is a Taekook book, why are there all the members? I understand that you've shown the other SHIPS too, but the cover isn't supposed to have all the characters. There should be just the main characters. 

Also, I didn't like the font style and font color used. The color blends with the background, making it tough to see the title.

Book title (2/5)

Really common title. I found too many books with the same title.

Blurb (1/5)

This is what you've written-

A Taekook story where Jungkook, who is totally against of love life, workaholic fells for a guy whom he saw for the first time in a bar, singing in a dark axil surrounded by unknown crowd while bright spotlight was falling over him. 

First of all, there are too many commas.

Secondly, there is wrong English. 

A Taekook story where Jungkook is a workaholic, who is totally against love life. He falls for a guy whom he sees for the first time in a bar, singing in a dark axle surrounded by an unknown crowd while a bright spotlight is falling over him. 

You've clearly mixed the tenses and it's too confusing. I'm not sure if what I've changed makes sense or not, but still, this is an example of how you write.

Plot (12/15)

I hardly found that many mistakes with the storyline.

Writing style (8/15)

The very first line in the first chapter got me confused. I could clearly understand that it was in some character's POV. However, the name wasn't given. That's a loophole in your writing style. I could even notice someone's comment about the same thing since they were confused too.

You described the chapters pretty well till there weren't any dialogues. Once there were interactions, I found those pretty bland and monotonous. There could be more descriptions of the scene or about the emotions of the characters. I found it missing.

Grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation marks (6/15)

The first spelling mistake I found was in the characters chapter. In Jin's intro, it should be "singing" and not "signing"

Another is in Hoseok's intro. "Don't lies?" I'm not sure what it means. Either it is "don't lie" or "don't like lies." Correct it in whichever way is right.

Jimin's intro- you wrote it as "helping people through his kind words" instead of "helping people with his kind words." 

There was this one sentence in the first chapter which had a wrong word-

People start to applause me.

"Applause" should be changed to "applaud."

I found other mistakes too, like changes in the tenses, some spelling mistakes, and punctuation marks errors.

Let me point out one mistake that you made in all the chapters. 

When there were dialogues, there should be a full point or comma used after the dialogue ends. Let me give you an example.

"Yeah, everything's fine, Hyung" and then there was a description.

However, after Hyung, there should be a full point. 

If we write said, spoke, etc, then we use a comma at the end of the dialogue before closing the double inverted commas ("), but if there is a description, a full point must be used. 

Character development (13/15)

Could see character development. 

Emotions conveyed (10/15)

Could use better ways to convey the emotions of the characters.

Overall connection as a reader (6/10)

Total (59/100)

Romantic Story (Taekook) - aurora_2604 

Book cover (4.5/5)

I loved the book cover. The face claim, font style, placement of the author's name, and everything was fine. I feel adding a tagline would work as a cherry on the cake.

Book title (1/5)

Could do better with choosing the book title. It seems like this isn't the title but the genre. I can't see creativity.

After reading the story, I felt like- Titles like "His dominating boss" or "His possessive boss" work better. These are just my suggestions, just try to come up with a unique and suitable title. The storyline has a lot to offer and a title like this gives the wrong impression to the new readers. 

Blurb (5/5)

I didn't find any issue with the blurb. It was exciting. I'd like to give a suggestion. Add "intersex Taehyung" to the blurb. That is a crucial detail a reader should know before jumping into the book. Not everyone is comfortable reading such books. 

You might say that you've written it in the introduction chapter, but still, mentioning it in a blurb is necessary. 

Plot (15/15)

I loved the plot. Though it's a bit cliche, I won't say no to it. 

Just one question, why Taehyung has to be shown as intersex? He could be shown as a normal male who can give birth. We have many such books on Wattpad and people love them. I just didn't understand why he was shown intersex, because I can't really imagine them like that. To be honest, I've never clicked on a SHIP book that had an intersex member, so it felt a bit weird to me.

Writing style (10/15)

First of all, you have used many repetitive words in the first chapter. Disdain, black-eyed man. I already knew it was Jungkook, and I'm sure your readers would have assumed that too. So I don't see why you kept on using "the black-eyed man" and "the man" continuously. You could have simply used Jungkook, you know. 

One mistake that I've noticed. When Taehyung goes to the hospital to visit Hoseok, you had clearly stated "he" when Taehyung was conversing with the nurse. However, when he enters, you wrote "its body" in one place. If it's a "he" then "it" wasn't required. There were many such small mistakes in your writing style that I found. 

There were many places where gender was changed. Instead of "his," you've used "her."

The doctor can't "decide" if the patient is in a coma. It has to be "declared."

Another mistake I've noticed. It was mentioned Jungkook changing boyfriends. However, there was this one place where it was written girlfriends too. It was confusing, honestly (It's in the 2nd chapter). Even after reading all the chapters, it wasn't clear if Jungkook was bisexual or gay. Just change the words that I've pointed out accordingly. 

Grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation marks (9/15)

The very first thing I noticed was the abrupt change in tenses, and the change was almost in every sentence. It gives off a very bad impression. 

Also, there were some minor mistakes with punctuation marks, and some missing words that I feel could be corrected by proofreading.

Try not to use too many commas in the dialogues and descriptions. A whole paragraph can't have only one sentence written in 5-6 lines. Using multiple commas means only one thing, it's one whole sentence. And that's not possible. You need to cut short the words for understanding and use correct English too. 

You've written "kiss marks" in all the chapters. Change it to "hickeys." 

Character development (14/15)

I could notice character development and it was done pretty well.

Emotions conveyed (15/15)

I could feel the emotions that the characters felt or the way you portrayed them. Well done!

Overall connection as a reader (10/10)

Good job! Though there were many mistakes that I mentioned above, I still enjoyed reading the book. I wanted to read more as the storyline kept me intrigued. I'm waiting for the last chapter.

Total (83.5/100)

A Desolate Heart (JiKook) - luvmin_kook13 

Book cover (2.5/5)

The cover could be made better. The font style and placement of the title weren't that appreciative. 

Book title (5/5)

Unique and suitable title.

Blurb (3/5)

It was fine. Felt a little off with the dialogue kind of thing done in between the description. It didn't make me that curious.

Plot (14/15)

I liked the plot. It was intriguing.

Writing style (11/15)

I liked the writing style but not when there were interactions. There weren't descriptions or emotions portrayed well. 

Also, there was an abrupt shift in tenses.

About the description, you need to work more on it. There were monotonous dialogues with not much description when the characters interacted. And that kept me from connecting with the characters.

Grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation marks (9/15)

You will have to proofread. There are many mistakes.

Character development (14/15)

I could see character development and I loved this part, the characters.

Emotions conveyed (10/15)

You have described the emotions of the characters well but not when they are conversing. Just add more details about their expressions and feeling while they are conversing. 

Overall connection as a reader (9/10)

The ending was sad. I don't like sad endings. But the storyline was still amazing.

Total (77.5/100)

Smile It Off (Jikook) - Shriparna0 

Book cover (4/5)

Loved the cover. Everything was perfect except for the tagline. Maybe you could use this line in the cover that you have used in the blurb.

When God created the fate of two heartbroken boys to meet and heal each other. 

Book title (5/5)

A unique and interesting title.

Blurb (3/5)

I felt the blurb was too long. It appeared as if it was a prologue or something. Shorten the blurb a bit. Also, take off "ongoing" at the beginning of the blurb. 

About this book being your 10th work, mention it after the blurb ends. I didn't find this detail that important to be placed at the top.

And mention the top and bottom in the blurb. That's rather an important detail.

Also, I feel the warning that you've written is wrong. You can just give a warning like "Mention of violence" that too after the blurb ends.

Plot (11/15)

The plot is really nice. The storyline has a lot to offer.

Writing style (9/15)

I had a problem with the pacing. Also, there was confusion about who was speaking. Like, you changed the paragraph after the dialogue and it took some time to understand who spoke. Maybe, you can improve your writing style.

Grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation marks (7/15)

I've noticed the mistake in tenses in every sentence. Let me give you an example-

They have just realized how fake people are.

This is what you have written. Here, "have" and "are" are present tense, and "realized" is past. These are totally opposite tenses. So decide on what tense should the book be written and stick to it. Continuous changes in tense confuse the readers to visualize the story.

Character development (13/15)

I could see the character development. It was interesting to read the chapters that were related to Jikook.

Emotions conveyed (10/15)

Overall connection as a reader (6/10)

The confusion in some places and some major tense issues made it tough to stay connected. Also, the initial chapters were quite boring. Try to proofread the book and make corrections. Otherwise, there isn't any problem with the storyline or characters. 

Total (68/100)
