The Luna and her moon by: kerfluffled_
Requested by: kerfluffed_
First off I want to talk about the cover of the book. I liked the cover of the book. I liked the dark colors and the green on it along with the moon being able to stand out more with the girl in front of it.
Next is the summary of the book. I thought the summary was good and thought it told you what the story was about without giving too much away.
Next is the writing structure and grammatical errors. First off, I didn't see many grammatical errors in the book that would affect it too much but it would still needed to be edited nonetheless. As for the writing structure, I found it to be okay and not bad whatsoever. Thought it was just fine.
Also I thought the first chapter could have easily been the prologue of the story seeing as it was intended to be a introductory chapter to the book. Or rather than a prologue, we could have had flashbacks to maybe when the parents were nicer and were actually good people before resorting to selling their daughter's body for money and beer or even starting the book like that with a flashback or two or even with them just being nice and then in a few chapters or so, start with the daughter being raped. Now I don't know if there are flashbacks later in the story or not but I felt like this would have been a good way to start the story as it would have made you really feel for the main female character as she runs away and has to deal with the trauma of having going through something so horrible as what her parents did to her. Plus, it would definitely make the readers also really understand and support the idea of her running away at 18 even more so.
Next is the pacing and plot of the story. Okay as much as I liked the writing structure, summary and cover of the book, I did find myself not liking the pacing of the book. It felt too rushed in my opinion to get straight to the main characters meeting and then into the slow burn romance which I will talk about in a bit. I felt if it slowed down just a bit, then there would be more time for world building. The plot I thought was okay. It was basically like any other werewolf romance book out there where the girl/guy has had a bad background, ends up being sold off or running away and meeting the love interest and with a bunch of misunderstandings along the way. So sadly it wasn't anything special.
Finally there is the descriptions and the characters of the book. First let's talk about the descriptions. The descriptions were okay. But I felt like there could have been more detail on what things looked like and what was happening if the descriptions were longer. This would have given more time for readers to know what was going on and what was happening.
Next is the characters. Okay so far of what I've seen of the characters is that they felt really bland and didn't have much personality to them whatsoever. I felt like I didn't really have much of a connection to them to really care about them. The only things going for them was the whole werewolf thing and the main female character's tragic backstory along with the whole slow burn romance. Which don't get me wrong, those aren't exactly bad things, I just wish we had more information about them like their hobbies, dislikes, likes etc so it gives them more depth and making them more complex in the process.
Overall, it's a decent book and I would recommend it to anyone who loves reading books like it.
Thanks for letting me review your book.
