Lady of Letters ~ Bela's Review
Title: Lady of Letters
Author: @Starlightgirl54
Summary: "Do you trust me, Cassie?"
"Why should I trust you?"
"Because you're the only one I trust in."
Cassie Robinson is a 24 year old young woman, who keeps a dark secret with herself that nobody shall ever discover: She saw her parents die through the hands of an angered spirit.
The rest believes that the hatred of the people should have brought them to set fire to the house of her father and mother.
Angry, lonely and with no more to loose, she gives herself the promise to kill whatever took her family from her.
The only option: Join the Men of letters.
The problem: She is the first woman which will join the legendary circle. And the colour if her skin will not stay invisible.
Her partner Dean Winchester, the leader's grandson, will not leave the young lady's side and protect her against the prejudice of the brothers and the evil of their world.
Will she be able to revenge her parents?
Rating: 3/5
Opinion: This was actually a request, so if you want your fanfic read, request away in the Intro and Rules chapter, or via pm! We'd love a few requests :D This book is rated mature, and from what I can tell, it's from racism, among other things.
First thing's first! I love this cover. Simplistic, old movie style-type of poster that fits the Men of Letters theme.
The story starts out with an African American woman trying to leave her life and dedicate herself to the Men of Letters. A warm welcome to things, an Old Henry Winchester is present and presides along with other men in the bunker. It's as if Abaddon never came and killed off the North America chapter, which is a complete twist of events. Ever wonder what would've happened if they survived? This is the story for you! Sam has left the society, and only Dean is left to carry on with his grandfather.
Why is all of this happening? You'd have to read to find out! The writing definitely gets better as the chapters go on.
Okay. Onto the other side of things. Dean's character is a little out of character, but only with really tiny things. The small shyness is an example. The first chapter's centered format could use work, but the rest of the format for the chapters definitely get better as they progress! There was some bad spacing here and there where words were cut in half and placed in a new paragraph. Also, a few pieces of dialogue weren't put into different paragraphs.
I would definitely recommend a beta reader, or comb through and edit it. There were a few misspelled words, and also some missing commas. I have trouble with the commas sometimes too. I always read it out loud, for it helps catch those little mistakes. Other than that, you're on your way to a cool concept, Starlight! :)
