🎭 Film 4🎭
Once again, the ticking goes off, sounding from the projector as the black screen lights up with a faded grey. Numbers display themselves on the screen as the countdown starts.
Here we go!
Film: WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY FAN?
Film writer: ViniShah2
Cover: 10/10
I really like the cover for the book! The objects pictured in it make it relevant to the story and the choice for colour makes it pop! Not only that, but the fact that it's not the typical picture of strawberry (as I will be calling Borastrawberry for the sake of not spoiling the plot) and the female protagonist makes it very refreshing.
The only issue I have with it would be the font colour and size. It's a little small and kind of drowns into the background. Perhaps try experimenting with different colours and sizes?
Title: 10/10
I honestly see nothing wrong with the title. It's relevant to the story and lures the reader in to answer the question.
Blurb: 10/10
Short, sweet, and alluring. Love it! It introduces the protagonists and explains the situation they're in, which is everything you need in a blurb. The, "Little would she know how small the world would prove to be" is so perfectly mysterious! As a reader, I'm hooked!
Plot: 9/10
So far, the plot has shot off to a good start! The relationship Strawberry and Bora have over messaging is hilarious and also very dramatic - even slightly depressing at times. The author leaves no spoilers and each piece of information given comes at due time. Strawberry's reveal to the readers brings more drama as he struggles with the fact that his job keeps him from his relationship with Bora, who in turn is confused about his absence. Not only that, but as the relationship builds, the romance grows! The reader knows who Strawberry is, but Bora does not!
It honestly kept me on the edge of my seat!
Characters: 8/10
Let's start with Bora. She's definitely hardworking and always inspired in her writing, even going as far as to update 10 times in one week (far more than I can lol). She's relatively kind and patient towards Strawberry when he questions her choices with her work, not to mention she's very funny and relatable. She has her little cons though - she's a little suspicious of strawberry for his absence, even assuming sometimes that it's because he's dating someone. She seems mildly jealous about it, despite the fact that they're not together.
Strawberry seems to be sweet, and obviously head over heels for his favourite author! Honestly, his little giggles about their nicknames had me rolling in laughter! He's very concerned about a character that relates to him in the story, and constantly questions Bora's writing. In the beginning especially, he borders on obsessive, even going so far as to message Bora while she's told him she's busy - but I'm sure this was for comedy's sake!
Both of them seem to be enamoured with each other's company, but they need to remember that they both have lives outside of Wattpad lol! I am sure that the ending will develop these character's for the best!
Grammar/Spelling: 8/10
Besides the odd mistake here and there, the spelling was fine. The grammar was good, however there were some places in which I feel like better words or phrases could have been used.
One example in particular: In the beginning of the story, Strawberry believes that Bora is Indian. In the dialogue, he says "I would take you as an Indian" which doesn't sound right.
Instead I would opt for something like, "I take it that you're Indian?" or even, "I assume you're Indian."
There were a few places also in which the dialogue didn't feel like very real for a casual conversation- mainly in the wording.
Other than that, the writing was perfect.
Flow: 9/10
So far the pace is relatively good. I would probably just note that I feel like the romance aspect was a little too speedy in it's arrival, but that's just personal preference.
Writing style: 9/10
The author's writing is neat and clear. All of the non-texting scenes were well described without being difficult to understand. The paragraphs were laid out well and had the correct punctuation marks. The dialogue flowed well and sounded realistic. As I said earlier, a little bit of editing would do the book very good. Otherwise, good job, author.
Originality: 10/10
While I have seen so many texting fanfics, this is the first I've seen with a reader messaging their favourite author on Wattpad. Not to mention, who that reader is. A very refreshing take on texting fanfics, if you ask me.
Personal enjoyment: 10/10
Honestly, I loved it. The writing was clear and easy for anyone to read. The plot was terribly cute and hilarious at times. The transitions between texting and real life were smooth. Both characters began a friendship in the most interesting way and one has yet to reveal their mysterious truths. This story almost breaks the fourth wall with it's mention of Wattpad and in such a relatable way!
Good job author!
Total: 93/100
You were far too involved in the movie to notice the projector stop ticking as the screen went black again. The only sad things about these movies were that they were just too short!
"Don't worry," Your friend assured you as she noticed your forlorn expression, "the next one is coming on in a second."
Just as she said that, the projector burst to life again.
I can't wait for the next film!
