Humor

Head judge's comments : All humor participants can go to that_guitar_girl 's book where she gives detailed breakdowns and analysis of all the entries! This was a pretty good genre with some great entries! The judges both judged generously and I struggled finding which ones to put through! We therefore have eight going through here, four from each judge. 

GOING TO ROUND 2

*Kick Ass Nanny by cottoncandykisses - 87/100 : LMFAO. THIS BOOK WAS HILARIOUS!!!!!! I loved Bonnie!!! She was soo straight to the point and funny. The plot was great, the characters where good and it was really funny. My only problem was the cover was not that great and it would need some spelling and grammar tweaks. Other than that great read! 

The Bad Boy Has Wattpad by rock_dreamer - 90/100 : Another superb cover, although I don't like the font much. It's a funny story and I like how you're breaking the fourth wall in a sense (so many people writing on Wattpad pretend as though it doesn't exist in their books!). Great read. 

Cooking With Boys by  droptops_- 86/100 : The only thing you lost points on here is the plot! It could be a little better developed/structured. Lovely cover and your writing scored full marks too.

Guilty Pleasures by chocfudgeo - 96/100 : Beautiful cover, grammar on point and super interesting plot! I didn't want to stop reading. You lost points on your writing - maybe try and make it a little more original? Use some more descriptions and some more devices like metaphors or imagery. 

Jax's Drama by dg_and_reid - 98/100 : Another beautiful story. You lost two marks on writing because in my opinion you lack a bit of style. It would be nice to have slightly more descriptive and maybe more adventurous paragraphs from you. Apart from that, excellent. 

Sirena by sirenaofthesea - 98/100 : Your cover is original and doesn't look Teen Fic-y like most of the others and I really love that! I'm not sure how much of a Humor vibe it gives, but I'll let it slip because it's different. You only lost two marks on writing. I love this book! It's super random and the first chapter had me hooked already. 

The Method Writer by ladyrowyn - 99/100 : This had possible the nicest cover in the entire humor category. Super nice graphic (did you make it???). The plot is hilarious. I think this book deserves millions of reads and I am confident it'll get there. Can't wait to see it in the next round!

NOT GOING TO ROUND 2 : eliminated

Adolescents Hotline by pandaheart66 - 33/100 : Overall quite a poor book. I've seen the cover on the picture on hundreds of other books and the cover was badly cropped. You made stupid mistakes like not capitalising I's etc. The first chapter really freaked me out because this apparently grown man was telling a girl about sexual stuff... Okay. Not for me. 

A New Start by bookwormnerd01 - 57/100 : I definitely think the cover needs some work, try a different font. Go to the Multimedia threads where you'll find tons of amazing designers! I quite like your plot, sounds interesting, but I don't like your writing much. I'm not sure how fitting it is for humor... Work a little harder on your actual execution and this could be an amazing book!

Lost in Wanderlust by boot_books - 60/100 : Don't like the cover much, it's a bit too typical. Your writing is okay but the plot is cliched and I didn't think much of it. It wasn't a bad story, it just doesn't stand out. 

*The Bucket by lauraliessometimes - 69/100 : Tbh I love it, except for a few places where I didn't understand why things happened. There's no description at some places but the book is actually great! A little bit of editing and change in dialogues will make it a lot more amazing. 

The Bullied by humanalive20 - 70/100 : Firstly, I feel as though this book is in the wrong genre... It belongs in Teen Fiction, Chicklit or General Fiction. Someone being bullied isn't exactly funny, and just because you have occasional funny moments that doesn't make it a humor story. I don't like the cover that much and your writing contains some mistakes, but the plot is pretty solid. However, I wasn't able to judge it properly as it didn't have the traits of a humor book. 

The Tomboy by apricotwrites - 75/100 : Although I liked the cover and your plot, I found it a bit cliched and your execution wasn't excelling - there's even a typo in your blurb. Not bad, but you could definitely polish it a bit more. 

Chocolate Covered Churros by writeforyoursoul - 75/100 : I am part Spanish so your title really intrigued me. I also really loved your cover! It's beautiful. I think the whole cancer and thirty-days-to-live trope is seriously overused and this is just another version of that story. However, I found your writing pleasing and your grammar good overall. Not bad!

*An Elephant's Chain by thegreatkoalabooks - 75/100 : I have given this book this score because it was tremendously well written. From they way the author described the scene and the words he used...not to mention I couldn't find any spelling mistakes. It was VERY well written. HOWEVER it was suppose to be humour and I didn't find it all that funny. It looks like it should be a general fiction book- the main guy is disabled...I mean it has potential to be brighter...but with the way the author writes...it didn't suit this category at all. Had it been in another one...I would have given it a higher score.

*Just a Crush? by selflove17 - 75/100 : Don't like the cover. The plot is cliche but you deliver it in a way which is nice and easy to read and I liked that. You should work some more on Aaru, your female character, as your male characters are well-developed. Your grammar is okay but your punctuation isn't great. 

Her Happy Meal by magnificent_hart - 78/100 : I don't like your cover. The sticker on it is huge - you can make it smaller, and maybe put it at the top of the picture where we'll see it better. However, your spelling and grammar is overall very good and I found the plot very entertaining. Please work on the cover, because it really lets this book down. 

Lost and Found by queensarcasmem - 80/100 : Your grammar and spelling were superb, but I found your writing dull at times. The cover could do with some minor improvements like changing the font and maybe getting a more relevant picture. 

The Family Way by toyinade - 80/100 : Didn't like the cover much... You had (very) occasional grammar/spelling mistakes which I just had to fault, and you lost three marks on plot. Very funny and a light, enjoyable read. 

*The Gumball Girl by musicality_17 - 80/100 : Love the cover and the yellow colours. Your summary is decently written and really leaves me wanting to know more! Your characters are well built and have some funny quirks, but I found your writing - particularly dialogue - poor. With some more time spent on writing/editing, this could be an amazing book. 

7:23 am by bateaux - 80/100 : I love the cover, firstly. It's beautiful! Your graphics inside are also super cute. Your plot is great, I read that you re-vamped most of it and that really shows. However, I wasn't in love with your writing style. I found the whole half-texting/half-writing a bit annoying and complicated to keep up with. Either way, a lovely read. 

Where Did My Tits Go? by lazy_mary - 81/100 : Your cover needs improvement, but in general your grammar and spelling was good and I quite liked the plot! With a little more attention to execution this could be a really funny story. 

The Babysitters by ooodles_ - 82/100 : I enjoyed this one so much! It was hilarious and the cover was super cool. I took away a few points for plot because it seemed a little typical at times, but I can't fault anything else!

Glitter, Glitches and Kisses by xxrazmatazxx - 84/100 : Liked the cover, super sweet! It could look a little smoother, though. Your grammar was quite good with occasional small errors and you have a decent style. The plot seems good so far too!

DISQUALIFIED

Enchanted by qveendoms : could not be judged in this genre

Just Jamie by zalienz : could not be judged in this genre

A Fellow Wattpadian's Rants by depressed_dude : could not be judged in this genre

Mr And Mrs Accidental by xthestrawberrybratx : pulled out of competition

Short Story

Head judge's comments : I judged some stories myself in this genre and all the ones I judged seemed very strong, with lots of books scoring over 80. Unlike in other genres, there are practically no actual bad books, which I'm super pleased about. However, there are lots around the 80 mark which were good books, but all lacking a special element. I also loved how diverse this genre was, with around 8 LGBT stories and some discussing mental illness etc. Very impressive! Overall, a pretty strong genre!

GOING TO ROUND 2

The Countdown by assassinassociation - 90/100 : An incredibly sweet story which is hauntingly beautiful. For such a short book, it really makes you think and that's very impressive from such a short tale! However, it lost 6 points on the cover and 4 for spelling and grammar due to a lack of punctuation.

*The Homeless Boy by zelaughingqueen - 90/100 : The format for the cover look a bit awkward in my eyes. The characters felt very real and genuine. The plot was extremely unique and unlike a lot of the books on Wattpad.

Out Late Sipping Milkshakes by aquamarine_polaroid - 92/100 : The cover is catchy and the plot is awesome, however there were some grammar mistakes which prevented it from attaining top marks. The writing style is quite good. 

Dollhouse by theofficialpanda - 93/100 : The idea of the book is attractive, the way the writer expresses it, makes it more charming, the book cover is catchy but it could be better, and lastly the book has some tiny bit grammar issues.

*Powerless Love by sara_amin - 95/100 : Wonderful cover. No noticeable grammar or spelling mistakes. I really loved this book. It felt like the author was painting us a picture with her writing. The plot felt very original.

Then You Are Gone by john_schorwinson - 95/100 : It's a dialogue book, and the way the author describes it is quite amazing, the cover can be better and the idea isn't cliche as usual Wattpad stories, so that's a plus point for it.

*Peter by lightning_stryker - 95/100 : Great cover in general and for the story. A few grammar mistakes were found. The characters felt like everyday people you might meet. The imagery was outstanding. I felt like I was reading a published writer's work.

*Quarry Kingdom by hctownes - 95/100 : This was a truly excellently written short story. It reads like something which should be published! I loved reading it and I have very little else to say. You lost three marks for the cover, which is nice but doesn't seem the best fit for your story, and two on plot. Excellent!

$7.49 by yeticalsyd - 96/100 : Very original cover, interesting plot, written in a way relevant to a Short Story. An occasional grammatical error and the layout is a little messy (it would be nice to double space your lines..?). 

After You by that_guitar_girl - 98/100 : Very accurate to the story. It really drew my attention! You had no grammar mistakes that I could see and your story flows easily. The dialogue is simple and easy to follow. This story surprised me, what started as a suicide book turn into a hopeful one, where its protagonists have a second chance to live and forgive. Loved it!

NOT GOING TO ROUND 2 : eliminated

*Locked Heart by maaya_19 - 43/100 : Don't like the cover at all! It really needs work. Your writing is rushed and often sentences run into each other. The plot is okay but your writing and grammar really let it down. Do some more editing!

Chatting With the Dead by  karthik_sharma - 51/100 : This had an awesome cover! However, I was disappointed to learn it had nothing to do with the story. You misused prepositions and the format is text message, very short ones parts, it didn't help the story. It could make a TAP story.It was confusing, I couldn't judge the story in the three first chapters, I had to read an extra one in order to get a hang of the story. It disappointed because the cover was very attractive.

Music Shop on 5th Street by -wanna-be- - 57/100 : Although this is a sweet idea for a dialogue story, it's been done plenty of times before and this doesn't seem to stand out too much. Sloppy spelling. A little suggestion for the author : check out $7.49. It's a bxb dialogue story and I think you could learn a lot from it. You might also want to get another cover made (check out the graphics threads). I like your initiative for writing an LGBT story - it's refreshing - but make sure you do us proud.

*Things People Say by vrochikataigida - 60/100 : The title on the cover extremely hard to read. Some grammar and spelling mistakes. Very little description or detail in the paragraphs. The plot within the story felt very relatable on so many levels.

*Cafe Talks by gorgeous_enyah - 65/100 : Cover looked a bit cluttered with the title on. Very little grammar and spelling mistakes. The book lacked substance. It seemed like it was stretched out and didn't really go anywhere.

*Pizzaline Bling by yourstrulyolivia - 65/100 : A very beautiful cover for the story. That said I wish it went better with the story. I wish there was more to the actual story. I understand the plot, but I just felt like it needed more. The humor within the book was perfect though. (Also as a side not this book is very, very similar to Pizzeria Boy. Its a very popular book that is done in the exact same way. So yeah there's that.)

Lemon Drops and Candy Shops by kellyge - 68/100 : I loved the cover and the graphics and the grammar and use of language was spot on. However, in the first three parts the plot was pretty unconvincing and seemed a little cliche. I like the dialogue style of writing, but your layout was a bit annoying and too fancy and stylised.

*Do or Die by lanab13 - 69/100 : I quite liked your cover although it's a bit confusing (I struggled to interpret the title from the cover). Your story develops nicely although I hope it doesn't become too cliche. Your grammar is decent but I thought you lacked a bit of writing style. An okay read, but it didn't particularly stand out. 

*Knowing Jackson by auburnair - 70/100 : Very sweet looking cover but I question if it's right for the story. Some grammar mistakes within the book. I really enjoyed the idea for the plot. I felt like the characters were very flat.

Stars and Fireworks by satire--humor - 72/100 : The parts are all very short, which might be a bit annoying for some readers, but I like how the plot is gradually developing. The cover could be improved, and the bold/normal lettering is a little confusing at times (have a reminder at the top of each chapter?).

ASR's Angry Mode by kalaisworld22 - 74/100 : The plot is awesome but the way the writer is writing it isn't very good, plus it has many grammar mistakes. I also don't like the cover much... Other than that the book is an okay read.

*Tummy Flutters by sunshowered - 75/100 : Beautiful cover. No noticeable grammar or spelling mistakes. There wasn't a lot of description in the story. The lack of description made me feel like the story was lacking.

Broken But Ardent by pastelpeonies - 76/100 : Very interesting style but leaves a bit to desire... Grammar is nice. The plot seems weak at the moment and a little cliche, but hopefully it improves!

Somewhere in Brooklyn by acmegreen - 76/100 : Your cover was very colorful and attractive, it caught my attention. There were many grammar mistakes, even if the author wrote that the book wasn't edited, the mistakes were repetitive. Your writing was a little confusing and hard to follow. Plot: The story would have more potential if the writing was clearer.

*Melancholy by pialikesbands - 80/100 : Cover was perfect for the story. No grammar or spelling mistakes. Beautifully worded and very well done. However, I felt it lacked a defined plot. 

Slow Suicide by zelaughingqueen - 81/100 : Magnificent cover: at first glance it seems a bit dull, but I just realised the fingers are cigarettes! I like that it's meaningful. Your writing is spectacular: I couldn't find any errors and you have a decent style. However, you lost me a bit on the plot. From what I've read, this is going to be a dire, slow-burn story about two teenagers who gradually fall in love. Points for being creative, but I'd like a little more.

*Beyond The Grave by agirlwithnoone - 81/100 : The cover is accurate to the story although it didn't catch my attention. There are some mistakes in the use of comparisons and superlatives. Even though this is a short story, has great potential to be a full story, because I felt I ran through the main episodes of Felicia's life. There's information missing. I loved it! Like I said it has great potential. 

Zelus by adelinarosegray - 82/100 : Although the cover didn't draw my attention, it was very accurate to the plot. There were no grammar mistakes. In the first part of the story, every page was a chapter which made it impossible to judge the story by the three first chapters. Although the chapters are very short, the story is gripping and I couldn't put it down until the very end. I don't score it 30 for plot, because it was too short to be judged by three chapters!

*Red Cupid by teracanread - 82/100 : This was written is short, sweet little parts and I really enjoyed reading it! I like the cover, seems relevant, and it's original, too. I read eight parts but the plot doesn't seem to be too original... A bit of a disappointment! I hope you make something interesting of it instead of just making it that Romeo and Red Cupid fall for each other. However, a sweet little read. Your dialogue is clearly presented, which is nice as some people's is awful.

Moonlight by justamk - 84/100 : Judging by the three first chapters, neither the cover nor the title pay justice to the story. When I saw the cover and then read the synopsis, I thought that all the events were going to happen at night, but it was far from it. There were no obvious grammar mistakes other than the fact that everything was written in lower case. It was very easy to read. Apart from the fact that the story is very dark full of heavy subjects, the writing flowed with ease. Nothing extraordinary though. The story was very gripping. The thematic was very heavy, but the author warns it at the beginning. Even if it was a deeply sad story, I enjoyed reading it.

The Unkempt Diary of Caleb Finnickin by loganandryder - 85/100 : The cover is a little blurry but the writing is super appropriate to the story! Lost 8 points on spelling and grammar, punctuation in particular is quite weak.

Hope by nighttaker - 85/100 : I loved the cover! Very accurate to the book. It gives me hope just by seeing it. You had some grammar mistakes but there weren't too many. The stories are very short. Some of them feel like there's a part missing, but overall they were good. Every chapter is a different story and all of them are very interesting, different and gripping. I don't grade it 30 because some of the stories feel like there's missing information. However, I liked this format you used!

Better Together by musicality_17 - 88/100 : The book is great, both plot and writing wise, but it has some basic grammar mistakes and the cover isn't too catchy or particularly attractive. 

Her Name Was Delanie by bookwormsarah - 88/100 : Although I can see why she chose this cover, it doesn't do justice to the book. There were no grammar mistakes, and although most parts of the story is written in monologue, the story is easy to follow. Your plot was hard to judge by the three first chapters but seems interesting enough to keep the reader captivated.

Jairus by bxlicia - 89/100 : Love the cover, spelling and grammar are on point! The plot sounds good at the moment but it really depends on how it develops later in the story.

*Strawberry Scoops by _storiesbyc_ - 90/100 : The cover goes well with the story. Very little grammar mistakes. The characters were super lovable. I felt like this book had the perfect blend of basically everything. 

High School Hate Project by _storiesbyc_ - 90/100 : The cover was nice but it didn't draw my attention. There are some spelling mistakes, specially in the use of the perfect Present that I couldn't ignore. I love the different points of view, making it a story with many protagonists. I also loved the plot, its originality and how the story evolves.

*It Started With A Text by dorkindisguise - 90/100 : Although the girl in the cover is beautiful and is wearing yellow, which is a captivating color, I think there's no connection to the title. Also the title was changed before the judging process. There were some tiny grammar errors. I like the writing! It's very sassy and funny. I can see the characters developing a relationship. It would be a great Tap story, though! The plot develops smoothly. I can see where the story is going making it predictable but it's a fun story. 

DISQUALIFIED

none!

Romance

Head judge's comments : Some of the participants can find extended comments on their books in achudasama1 's Romance book!  I was impressed at the quality of some of these entries, and disappointed by some others. However, we have very strong books going to Round 2 and I can already tell how hard it'll be to pick winners!

GOING TO ROUND 2

A Girl Named Blue by bluebaby0 - 83/100 : Stereotypical plot but makes it interesting by making the story self aware that it's stereotypical. Very few grammatical mistakes were made. The characters are not single sided and have a deep personality right off the bat. Pacing is a bit too quick though and could use improvement. The cover is definitely eye catching but if under the romance category it is a bit offsetting.

*An Omegas Tale by payytun - 85/100 : Such a lovely descriptive book! Not a lot of imagery but the descriptions of nightmares, action scenes, love scenes, emotional cuts, flashbacks and memories is entertaining to the fullest! Some editing is required but minimal. Story told in third person perspective but by the male protagonists and then by the supporting characters as chapter titles refer to the character. This plot is so intricate and complex that there seems to be a lot in store for the reader. There are mysterious aspects with the characters and circumstances. Even the supporting characters are complicated! The writing and plot moves smoothly and flawlessly. The author really knows how to tell as story and tell it well!

Everything Is Blue by casparita - 89/100 : Great story. Very well written. Cover is well made, a lot of character development from the beginning. You get a sense of emotional attachment to the characters. The only downside being there was an overwhelming feeling of depression that existed with the feeling of love, basically slightly too depressing.

Woven Deceit by catherine_edward - 90/100 : No grammatical mistakes were seen. Very interesting as it takes the occasionally vicious world of business where some people have "cut throat" personalities. It is extremely well written and really drags you in and makes you think. Though in my opinion the pacing could be a tad faster and the rivalry is already shown extremely and you can kinda guess what would happen.

A Genius In Love by glitchingstatic - 91/100 : OMG! The writing is flawless. She even describes the snow crunching beneath her shoes. The story may feel slow, but it is so imaginative. The entire plot is friends who do all the romantic things but don't know that they are romantic. It is so subtle and done amazingly! Every detail, every nuance, every character flaw is described. Biggest issue is her cover and a few reality concerns (like how do you fit a boat into a trunk and close it)! Please look into changing the cover...!

More Than This by 4thpowermama - 94/100 : Splendid! How well thought out can you get in terms of creativity! One chapter of hers means three points of views shown separately. Song present for ambiance while reading. And through this complicated system it flows gorgeously! So innovative with characters that show weakness and strength. She has a narratives and points of views that show us all aspects of the same event. There are mysteries to unravel. I can't fault it! The only issue was that she used a visual cast and so did not describe the characters.

Don't Let Go by midnightsdarling - 94/100 : Amazing dialogue. Extremely well written. You can easily feel the main character's emotion and frustration. Just overall amazing first 3 chapters. Though more or less 2 typos and the intercourse scene in chapter 2 felt out of place. Too soon if you will.

The Forgotten by magicpoppy - 95/100 : The cover was better than the rest but not eye-catching. Grammar was decent enough and plot was on point but kinda fell through. However, I decided to continue reading and it developed beautifully. Loved the plot!

NOT GOING TO ROUND 2 : eliminated

When She Died by sparkline_ - 37/100 : More of thriller feel than romance. No descriptions of places or people. Character actions are explained with asterisks and brackets. The cut scenes are jarring and there are no paragraphs. There is one relationship that is portrayed in the form of a friendship. I recommend you change genres...

Love at First Fight by lanab13 - 40/100 : The cover was a little below decent. The grammar was decent as well as the plot line but it kind of fell apart in the middle.

When Mr Popular Meets.. sangeethagowda7 - 40/100 : Cover was good, it really caught my eye! Grammar needed a little work and plot was like almost every 'popular boy' romance book on Wattpad I've read too many times. Didn't impress me much.

*Escape by cheeseburger-addict - 46/100 : Story has the potential of being a good one and could have been a great competitor but only has two chapters. Hard to judge. Introduction was mostly the summary repeated. Used punctuation to show anger and noise levels. Too bad!

Two States by kalaisworld22 - 50/100 : The plot was a little confusing, as was the character dialogue that didn't quite for the subject. Grammar was alright except for the periods in almost every paragraph.

In Love with my Best Friend by theredbelletrist - 50/100 : Story plot wasn't original. Cover looked good. Grammar wasn't the best.

Billion $ Bride by ellisa_evans - 51/100 : This is a picture book. Uses images to describe scenes, clothes, places and characters. Misuse of words such as collage for college and butcher for butler. Confusing use of words whose meanings are hard to understand. Some reality issues: Male character acts as if sexually harassing the female character to get out of an engagement, when caught the girl's mother sends them on vacation. 

The Drug Lord's Child by hottestcrossbun - 57/100 : Great potential as a story with interesting plot. Ends up short in descriptions and doesn't really drag in readers. One of the main characters is in my opinion too stereotypical. Very little good character development.

My Emotionless Darling by his_iku - 59/100 : Great premise but the female character is contradictory and confusing. For someone who is not supposed to feel anything she feels a lot as per the portrayal. Reality issues like the students are extremely vulgar in front of the teacher. Excessive swearing for no reason. Most female characters dialogues are accompanied by her facial expression in brackets to portray the theme. Spatial and continuity issues with forced cliffhangers.

Mr Possessive's Monster by paigebrownie - 60/100 : Cover was a little bit above decent. Grammar was a little below expected and plot was confusing and developing quickly. Overall I enjoyed it.

One Less Lonely Girl by kanishamaray - 60/100 : Cover wasn't great. Tons of grammar correction needed. Plot was decent to read.

All In Pain by sadia_sadybaby - 60/100 : The cover was slightly better than the last. Plot was on point but kind of fell through with the detailed work as it went on. Grammar was mostly there except for many mis-spelled words.

Blood Moon by vixzen - 63/100 : Summary was succinct and short and gave a mysterious element. There were quite a lot of grammar errors... Narratives and descriptions were good and entertaining but there was no plot even after five chapters. More a teen fiction and humour feel than romance. Recommendations : use the same well thought out narration to progress the plot by keeping in mind the theme of each of your chapters.

The Millionaire and the Florist by beautifulandmystery - 65/100 : Filled with punctuation issues. Very involved and intricate plot with a romantic feel! More of a dialogue story than descriptions. Multi-cultural feel but logistical and reality issues such as arguing on No and Yes for 30 minutes and comparing a Caucasian woman to an African woman and saying that the former is lighter. Suggestions - review your chapters before posting and pay attention to capitalisation!

*Obsessed to her Only by   - 67/100 : The plot is developed nicely. Beginning was third person and then became first person perspective for both male and female POVs spoken mostly in thoughts. The writing is simplistic focused more on dialogues and some descriptions. Forces mysterious elements. Abrupt changes in thoughts. Harsh and belittling self-talk. Hard time showing a strong female role and moral male role. Good try!

Longshot by europe_au - 70/100 : Story name was original as well as plot. Grammar needed work. Cover wasn't that eye catching. Not bad overall, but needs some polishing.

*We Went Broke at Midnight by dg_and_reid - 72/100 : A creative duo with book covers for printed and electronic media, movie posters, trailer, character sketches, visuals, playlist and character Instagram accounts, all associated with the book! Writing is good but so short, keeps you wanting more. Plot is unique. Took four chapters for the direction of plot to show. Short descriptions of events and characters. Chapter titles all have to do with money! Wish focus was more on the writing, would have been great! Had high hopes.

Safe by buzzingquill - 73.5/100 : Loved the unique and creative organization of this book. Roman numeral chapters contained a quote or questions. Themed titles showed the story. Premise was excellent. The characters are not depicted just the events. Dialogue at times confusing. More of an action/thriller genre than romance. Explore imagery and conceptualization. You might also want to change genres...

On A Cold Winter Night by angeliclife_2001 - 74.5/100 : More of a mystery, thriller and/or ChickLit feel than Romance. Reality issues like she is heavily injured from her escape but after being saved but no mention of treatment of her injuries even by her. Disjointed emotionally at some points. Good developed plot that is involved and interesting. Characters develop well with narratives and descriptions. Recommendations : this book is more suited for Chicklit!

The Billionaire's Unauthentic Daughter by sassysatanx - 75/100 : Fairly average book. Nothing excellent or outstanding about it but the writing and dialogue is very well done. All in all average book with nothing much to be special about. Though the dialogue is very well written and seems extremely natural.

Love Of A Teenage Girl by thegirlwhowroteit2 - 75/100 : Its interesting because it takes a different approach than the usual story telling and tells the love through a diary format. But besides that nothing special as far as I can see from the first 3 chapters. The words used are well chosen.

Best Friends Series by jdfanff - 76/100 : Cute romantic story! Uses punctuation multiply to portray emotions instead of describing them. Character development through narrative and plot development through dialogues. The writing is simple and flows well. Again uses elongated words to portray emotions. Some exaggerated reality concerns: parents want to call police when kids are late by one hour. I recommend you stop using punctuation to emote... Potential for something awesome!

Falling For Belle by darkerinfinities - 77/100 : Develops a romantic plot with character angst. Portrays characters in a contrasting light with flaws and insecurities. Some reality concerns like why learn how to drive from a person who was in car accident a few weeks before? Overall, story creates interest due to its cliff hangers, story line and character concerns. Great job! However, I suggest you review your work properly before you post it!

Lucky Unluckiest by  highharuka - 80/100 : Everything is very well done, very little if no grammatical mistakes. Good character interaction that shows a lot about their personalities. Not much is wrong about the book except the length of the chapters which really cut the enjoyment short and the pacing is ever so slightly too slow. The cover is very interesting even if it is quite simplistic only consisting of 2 colors. To recap the only major reason of the score was the pacing of the story was too slow.

Emblazon My Soul by prometheus_unbound - 80/100 : The book cover was alright. Grammar was decent and plot was overall one of the best in my judging. I quite enjoyed this book!

The Perks of Falling... by anamtaa - 80/100 : Plot was unique in a sense. Cover was decent. Grammar needed a little editing. Enjoyed it overall! 

Billionaire and the Agent by - 80/100 : Story idea was interesting as well as plot. Grammar needed quite a lot of work... Points for story idea and grammar beat the cover to be honest (I didn't like the cover much).

Perfect Mistake by mxrleyy - 82/100 : Did not like this book in the first two chapters. Character seemed to be suffering from ADHD and most of them were crude (girlfriends addressing each other as "hoe", yikes!). Then the plot took off to portray a love-hate romance that was sarcastic but with humour. An important issue is discussed beautifully! The writing is amazing in its banter, dialogues and show of feelings. You can see the quirkiness in the characters. I recommend you stop using derogatory terms and phrases, they really take away from your writing!

DISQUALIFIED
