LGBTQ Winners

Hello everyone! Down below I'll be sharing with you all the LGBTQ Romance winners. Congratulations to our winners! The winning scores were close with only a points difference.  

We had two participants with a score of 91 who were so close to winning third place and the remaining scores were in the high eighties! Winning scores were 94, 93 and 92! My goodness!

I have all of the reviews and scores on hand. So if you participated and didn't place; but would like to see your results, reach out to me and I'll send them to you. I don't mind at all.

First place will get a shout-out of their book on my announcements board and all books will have a place in my winning libraries for URA winners. I've got to do some rearranging of my libraries because I have too many. So bear with me while I take the time to get everything straightened out. 

Now on to our first 🥇 place winner!

2) Blurb [9/10]

3) Plot/creativity/originality [19/20]

The plot of this story is very unique and different which makes it very good. This storyline is very good and keeps the viewers engaged till the end. I would like to say that the idea used in the story, ​​Jesus appearing to Judas was very good and unique and I really appreciate the writer for this.

4) Character development [18/20]

The character development was defined very well. The character development of Judas is very well written, allowing him to slowly open up to others. I haven't read this story  completely yet, but I still believe that there may be more character development in the later chapters.

What I would suggest for the writer to improve is that very long paragraphs have been written in some chapters of the book, as I have said earlier some readers do not like to read such long paragraphs so I suggest that in future if this writer write any story then they should keep the length of the paragraph in mind.

1) Title and book cover [08/10]

The title of this story perfectly matches with the storyline. The title itself gives some idea of ​​the story of the book and people become eager to read it. 

The cover of this book is eye-catching but can be used and made better. The fonts that have been used so far are very simple but if you use other good fonts and do some editing, you can create an amazing book cover. If the book cover is made with better editing then the attention of the viewers can be gained.

2) Blurb [09/10]

This blurb of this story is very good and it gives a small glimpse of the story which compels the viewers to read the story further.

I would like to suggest this writer to add some dialogues which stand out in the story, this makes the reader more curious to read further.

3) Plot/creativity/originality [20/20]

The plot of this story is very unique. The first chapter of this book kept me hooked. The introduction given in this is very good and increases the interest of the readers.

4) Character development [17/20]

As I have read the book, I personally think that character development of the main characters is very important. As far as I have read this book, there has been very minor character development. The book is still ongoing, so I think the character development will happen in the upcoming chapters and I'm looking forward to it. 

5) Story flow [10/10]

The flow of the story is very smooth and perfect as every book should be. It is neither too fast nor too slow, it is perfect with the storyline.

6) Grammar [09/10]

The grammar of this book is good. There were a few grammatical mistakes in between, but as I see it, the reader won't pay much attention to them.

There was repetition of words at some places, so I would suggest this writer use synonyms so that the problem of repetition of words can be solved.

7) Writing style [10/10]

The writing style of this author is very good. Both narrative and conservation paragraphs were amazing. I personally liked the narration part more interesting and it is the biggest difficulty for writers that they cannot keep the readers connected with their narrative part but this writer has done that very well.

8) overall engagement and enjoyment [9/10]

Overall I enjoyed this story very much. This story far exceeded my expectations. The mistakes that I pointed out above, if you keep them in mind and re-edit the book then this book will be absolutely perfect. 

Total score :- 92/100
