The Fate by _chaotic_little_

Book by @_chaotic_little_

Cover 10/10
I can clearly tell that the girl depicted in the cover is Amy. I like that the theme of the cover matches the themes in the book, with it being black and white and overall very moody/sad.

Title 10/10
It's short and sweet, and based on the tone of the story it's nice hint at what's to come and the feel of the story.

Characters 8/10
The characters felt fairly well rounded, and thought out. The reason I mark off points is because I personally didn't feel like they were introduced very well in the first three chapters (the ones I read).

Plot/storyline 9/10
It's a unique and engaging storyline. It's definitely original, and I like the way you present Amy's struggles and experiences to further the plot.

Enjoyment 3/10
I'm so sorry to say that I, personally, didn't enjoy it very much. Not because of something the plot is lacking, but the way it's written. I didn't love that there isn't much, if any, punctuation in the dialogue, which distracted me while reading. I also think you should go through and capitalize all names (ie. Amy, Adir, Ellis), as well as add periods after "Mrs", so that it would be "Mrs. Ellis", since "Mrs" is short for mistress or missus. I also didn't love that the dialogue had a new dialogue thing each time there was a new sentence, for example, something like:
"don't do this Adir"
"Please, I haven't done anything wrong"
"My parents will go nuts".
That's just an example, as I don't remember the exact wording of any of your dialogue. I also couldn't tell, is it poetry style? Since the paragraphs of the book are kind of weird, I don't really know. If not, I recommend you bunch together or space out some paragraphs, like starting a new paragraph when a new person is talking or action of someone else after dialogue.

Description 7/10
First, I recommend you add an extra space in between the sentences, if that's the goal. If not, bunch some more of them together and create 2-3 paragraphs for it. This helps lessen the "big block of text" effect that may cause readers to skip over parts of it. I also recommend you check over capitalization and punctuation, as Ellis in "Mrs. Ellis" should be capitalized, and a period should have just a space after it, not before. For example, it wouldn't be "He grabbed the rosemary . He poured it in." It would be "He grabbed the rosemary. He poured it in." Do you see the difference?

Overall 47/60
As a whole, I love the concept and storyline for this book, as well as the title and cover, I just didn't love how the book was presented in the chapters and description. It's relatively simple to fix (though may take a little bit), but you don't have to. It's just my personal preference, you by no means have to change it since you have readers that do enjoy it.
