The Nerd Who Hated Love I_Dxnt_Even_Knxw

Cover: (10/10)
The cover is really pretty and I think the glasses, which are typically associated with 'nerds,' are a cute touch.

Title: (5/10)
The title could definitely be improved. It's kind of long, and doesn't really spark interest. It's very broad. If you want to, try something catchier. There are plenty of people who would make a new cover for you, including me.

Grammar + Spelling: (7/10)
The main thing I noticed was the small underuse of commas, which was mainly just in the beginning. Other than that, I saw a few typos, but the grammar was good.

Creativity: (6/10)
The concept of the gay nerd is definitely not uncommon. The concept of the gay nerd and his crush being paired up for a project isn't, either. It's not bad to have a storyline that other stories share too (I have one like it on my profile), it just wasn't very original. The fact that the main character hated love made it less cliche than other stories, though. Other than that, it wasn't super original. Again, not always a bad thing.

Writing: (7/10)
The writing was alright, but there are a few things that you can improve on. Don't use the word 'I' too much. Try putting more descriptive scenery and emotions in when you write; a lot of the story was just Erin stating facts. Don't say 'then this happened,' 'then this happened,' which you did a bit at the beginnings of the chapters. I also didn't see Erin's name written out until too late in the story, so if I hadn't read the description I wouldn't have known his name until chapter 2.

Characters: (6/10)
Erin is the nerd of the story, clearly. He states that he hates love yet he loves Ethan, but when he and Ethan are sitting next to each other on the bench in chapter one, Erin just seems really annoyed with him. Although when they talk on the bus in chapter three you can tell that Erin ivy likes Ethan. Erin seems kind of whiny and a bit annoying if I'm being honest. The reader should like the main character so that they'll root for them. However, I did like him a lot in chapter 4. He was smart to leave when Ethan kissed him even though Erin told him he was uncomfortable. Good job on chapter 4! (Also, you changed the girl's name from Casey to Cassie in chapter 2, which is very confusing.)

Overall Story: (7/10)
Your story got better the more I read. I liked how Erin knew to leave when Ethan screwed up and made him uncomfortable. I like his mother, and the situation with his father. Keep it up!

Total score: (48/70)
Go through and edit the chapters, and focus on the points I mentioned. Keep it up!
