Book: Epistle

Title (5/5)
Epistle. It sounds really nice and it's a great title for the type of book it is. I also like the simplicity of it so I'd give that a huge plus.

Book Cover (5/5)
The cover is really aesthetic. I love the colors and I think they blend really nice together. I also love the font that you used and the simplicity of it.

Book Summary/Blurb (9/10)
I did like that you gave the meaning of the word epistle. I like the ending of the blurb, really makes you question why it was so important that Anjali had to write a letter. However, I think the blurb could have a little more. It seems to be lacking and we only get the feeling of suspense in the last sentence. The first sentence does seem a little weak. Why would he have to send her a letter? Was she not there? I did think it was good though so if you fix up the first sentence a bit to make it a little bit more suspenseful or not that plain then I think it will be a good blurb.

Plot(15/20)
I did read the whole book as I couldn't just judge it off of 5 chapters since it was mostly split up to 2 paragraphs for each chapter. Honestly, I felt it was a good start. The tension, the students and everything. However, as the chapters progressed, I got confused. I didn't know what was going on. I didn't understand what happened. I didn't understand how Kian just suddenly healed or even how he got injured. I was just confused. I'm not sure what the actual plot was supposed to be about. I thought it was about a accident in the cafeteria and wondered who stabbed Kian or so. I didn't understand who was Rhea or Brianna, how hellhounds just appeared and how no one in the cafeteria ran from seeing these strange things. I really think you should go back over and analyse it properly and fix the parts that might be confusing to readers and cause them to stop reading. I think it has a lot of potential, truly but I suggest you fix it up and it will become a great book.

Grammar & Spelling (9/10)
You had some good grammar and spelling which I have to applaud you for since that is definitely a plus with books that will draw more readers in. You did have some words missing but I wouldn't take off too many points for that since I thought it was just some simple mistakes that you have to fix if and when you go through to revise. I really liked that you used descriptive words and the sentences were great length. Overall, you have good grammar and spelling so I give you a thumbs up for that!

Character Development (7/10)
I honestly don't think I can judge you on your character development since there was not much. I couldn't see much character development since I didn't really know what was going on but I did think you have dynamic characters with good character and so I didn't take off much points.

Overall (50/60)
Your story definitely has potential. It really just needs some fine tuning and you'll be on your way. I hope you found this review helpful since I really want your book to be a success and gain more reads.
