Before I show the review, I was informed that this book was based on a hindi serial but the reviewer clearly mentioned that she does not do fanfiction. She had to google stuff about the serial to understand the plot better. This is to remind you to please go through what the reviewers have stated in their introduction.

Back to the review, I hope it helps!!

..................................................................................

COVER (9.8/10) 

The cover is really beautiful. The Best thing in it for me is the part where the character's face cuts and the title is written. I really love the snake too.. Or serpent if you wanna say. The colour combination of the cover is great too. The only thing I think is a bit problematic for me was seeing the title of the book. It matches with the picture so much that it took me a few minutes to find and read it.. Not that bad but it would have been better if you or your designer could use a bit light colour which matches it and doesn't losses it's shine in it too. Otherwise everything was great. The cover says a lot about the story so bonus points there. Also the snake is cute...

TITLE (10/10) 

The title is good. Not so hard that people can't remember and not so easy that it could be forgotten easily. The perfect blend you know? That's what it is. Although the name could be a bit uncommon as its what most writers prefer, including me, it isn't bad. Nymph is a unique concept which most people don't get or don't know. I, myself, have seen different books from different authors describing it differently but it never fails to excite me. That's why I love fantasy and paranormal the most. Now back to the topic, the name is great, could be better but still great. And don't think I hate that title or something.. Different people prefer different things. I don't like Historical Fiction and would give it bad numbers but the people who love it would say otherwise so the whole reviewing depends on person to person so if you read me saying I don't like anything then please don't respond badly. This is for everyone so I think I should write that in my bio or something...

DESCRIPTION/BLURB (9.6/10)

Now another thing I personally liked was the first line in the description. "Between Certainty and Real, An ancient Enmity" It kind of gives it a prophecy type look. Change that word 'Real' into 'Reality' it would rhyme and match. The description gives a really great inside look and will help readers know if they actually want to read it or not. A bit of advice here if you want to know... Try to write the description in paragraphs. The description is perfect. But you should put a bit gap in between lines.. Like leave a line when a paragraph is competed. It would look great that way. It looks a bit messy when there's no gap in between the lines when a paragraph is over.

PLOT (3.2/10) [WARNING : SPOILER ALERT!] 

The plot was great.. Serpents are a unique thing and I never thought there could a whole story based on them. There was this thing I really liked was Bela's name.. It was not your common vampire Bella name so yeah! But I am really confused in those parts where Bela and Jace and Vince are... It's like I can't even understand the plot sometimes. The way Bela was head over heels in love, or we can also say that in like , with Jace at the first sight was weird. I mean I know love at first sight and all that but this? She was missing him at one moment and suddenly she has something more important to do and totally forgets him.. Then there's Vince who is a real mystery... And a bad mystery... Nothing is explained why he does whatever he does. There are so many plot holes that I can't even remember most of them. Really disappointed. 

FLOW OF THE STORY (4.4/10) 

There was a lot of ups and downs... Sometimes there are so many things happening at once that nothing can be understood and sometimes it's like the time has stopped and nothing is happening... The flow was really bad.

CHARACTERS DEVELOPMENT (3.9/10) 

Really bad. The characters don't develop at all. Jace said that he's in love with Bela but we can't even the mutual liking in the story. Bela can't decide if she really wants to kill Vince or not. She wants to kill him but at the same time there are more important things to do than that so she forgets him. The characters are confusing and don't make sense. They just heard that they are serpents and didn't ever reacted to it the ways you are supposed to when you hear that there's nothing left of your life you knew before all this. WRITING STYLE (6.8/10) The writing style is okay. Not exactly good as there are a lot of mistakes and the author has a weird obsession with writing all the words sooooo longggggg. It can be better with a bit practice.

GENRE RELEVANCE & TAGS USED (6.7/10) 

Genre is I think a bit wrong.. It's wrote as Fantasy and I don't think it falls under that category.. For me fantasy means 'a story based in another world' and even if it's a bit true, it many falls into the paranormal category. What I am trying to say is don't remove the fantasy category you have used in there... Just add paranormal into it too.. Without paranormal it kind of feels like it's missing half of its part... There are a lot of tags in there so a really good thing for the readers if they want to find the story.

READER'S ENJOYMENT (7.4/10) 

The reader would enjoy it. Most of the times readers don't wait for the good things or bad.. They just read. The plot is great and unique so readers will most probably enjoy reading it. 

 REVIEWERS PERSONAL LIKING (5.8/10) 

Okay the story was good. A lot of plot holes. Bad character development. But great cover and title. Informative blurb. And there are some moments when I laughed a bit too and I don't really laugh so.. That's a plus point. There are good things and bad things but good wins I guess. Now let's add our marks so we can get a percentage I would rate this book!

OVERALL (67.6/100) 

Good. But can be much better if try a bit harder.

Took me a really hard work to make that above 50/100...

It's the best I can do..
