Title : 4/10

Just a word. I would like to grab your attention on the fact that one can find several books with the same title. Reader's interest is inclined greatly on the title. This makes them either choose or drop a book. The title can be a single word but this one here is so common which makes it a little unamusing. Also it would look better if you removed all the characters (bts, mamamoo, stray kids…) and add it in either the blurb at the end of in a chapter.

Cover : 5.5/10

The cover seemed to have all the faceclaims. As the story and the title goes I am missing suspense from it. It kind of looks crowded as if all the characters are just simply added. The color scheme is good but there are no effects. It doesn't give the vibe as the book needs to have.

Description : 3.5/10

The first line is good but the repetition of secrets is there. So it can be edited to "Secrets are like zombies, they never die."

Apart from that I feel like the whole storyline is missing. There should be a precise description about that in the blurb. What the author has mentioned is just a part of it. Also the main conflict, about the 'war' between the siblings is not there. Providing an insight on that would create interest. Otherwise the description is totally bland.

Pace : 4/10

It felt like a fast forward story. The pace was a little hard to catch. More focus should be given to the descriptions which were lacking. Also things do take time, they don't just happen suddenly. So the author needs to continue a scene for sometime and then go on to the next.

Concept and plot : 3/10

Same concept on the girl who is totally 'flawless'. The plot had no exciting events nor any proper storyline. At some parts it said something while at other parts it was something. And about the makeup concept, personally I think that should be changed as soon as possible. Because that's literally misogyny. Bringing other women down just to uplift your own character is nowhere near praisable.

Also the description told a totally different story. Where is the cold 'war' that the author mentioned? It rather seemed like all the siblings were living in peace.

Character Development : 3/10

The character was unrelatable and felt unreal. All the personalities of the character provided were contrasting. Also how can such a young person get so many degrees at such a young age? It isn't possible unless it's god himself.

The character claimed to be 'perfect' in all ways. There was no inner conflict. Everyone, including fiction characters have it so that it can create a care in the mind of readers. But here there was none.

Grammar and Vocabulary : 5/10

There were errors in spellings and punctuations and some were also gramatical. The first mistake from the start is the use of an incorrect amount of ellipsis in the description. And the use of CAPS to indicate something. That should be changed. Short forms in between seem a little rough to read.

Writing Style : 3/10

The writing wasn't descriptive at all. It was just one line dialogues with no instance of the character's emotions or thoughts. There were short ones at the end. But reading just dialogues and not knowing how the characters are expressing it was tedious.

Overall Impression : 3.5/10

Overall a cliche story with confusing storyline and characters. It needs to be edited first of all. Second the author should try to give the characters more likely features which seem real. Adding actual internal conflict rather than just showing that everyone is jealous of her will be very helpful. And another thing please don't downgrade women using makeup.

Rating Of The Book : 3/10

I can only give this much. I had some expectations on reading the description but the plot made me disappointed and left me uninterested. I didn't enjoy it so I would be hesitant if I get asked about recommending it. There is a lot to learn and improve which I believe the author will surely achieve!

Total : 37.5/100
