╰┈➤Book Name: STILL WITH YOU  

▸TITLE: 10/10

The title and plot seem well suited to each other. It fits the relationships of Jimin and Yoongi, along with Tae and his mom, Namjoon and Jin, and Tae and Jungkook.  

▸COVER: 5/10

 The picture is beautiful in colour. It feels futuristic, like it's a cover for a science fiction, space-type story. Despite its beauty, it still seems a little out of place for a romance story cover; even the characters look cold, hard, and indifferent (which is not similar to how the story's characters are portrayed). If this were a futuristic or space fantasy story, I might give it a 10, but it's not.  

▸Description or blurb: 10/10

 The blurb is a very nice hook to draw you into the story. The story still holds all the secrets; the blurb just opens the door for you to walk in and find them. 

▸Plot: 20/20

The plot is lovely as you are taken through the relationships of Tae and his mom and his role as head of household, along with his new relationship with Jungkook. The relationships between the others are lovingly done and tasteful. I found it unique and interesting. 

▸Writing style: 25/25

 At the start, I was struck by the proper grammar. The vocabulary was refreshing and not your typical fan fiction cliché. The words used to describe the environment, emotions, and inner self-reflection are spot on. The pace was steady; it never hurried or bogged down. I loved it. 

▸Character Development: 20/20

 The characters of Taehyung and Jungkook developed so sweetly and with care from the author. The other characters grow as well. Very good character development. 

▸Overall enjoyment or final impression: 20/20

 This story was charmingly done. I found this to be breathtakingly beautiful. I would highly recommend it. The last chapter has been built up to where you need to know more to see how love blossoms and the things hinted at in the past may affect their relationships.

╰┈➤Book Name: Amygdala

 ▸TITLE: 10/10

 The title fits the story plot.

▸COVER: 5/10

 The cover has some issues, but it is cute and relates to the story. There is plenty of space on the cover for the title of the story to be in a larger font and, on its own, in a place of importance. The character representing the eldest seems to be a hunchback, and the other character seems too small, seeing as they are both adults in the story. As the cover is right now, the title reads, "Amydalall yoonkook." 

▸Description or blurb: 10/10

 Like the Three Bears story, it's not too much or too little; it's just right.  

▸Plot: 20/20

 The plot is clear: Jungkook wants to help Yoongi. 

 ▸Writing style: 10/25

 The emotions and introspection of the characters are good. The plot of the story is weighted down by all the excess: warnings, a/n's, chapter summaries at the beginning of a chapter yet to be read, and large gaps or blank spaces throughout. Grammar correction and the use of quotation marks for dialogue would be nice. The chapters in this on-going story seem to have been rushed out before they were ready. It looks more like a compilation of wonderful ideas and inspiration from what they have as the basis of a great story. 

▸Character Development: 20/20

 There is character development, and it is ongoing, like the story. 

▸Overall All Enjoyment: 15/20

 The story has potential. The mom singing the song that her son wrote about his inner turmoil to him at night just doesn't seem like something a mother would sing to their child. I found it less enjoyable to read due to all the large blank gaps, a/n notes, and summaries of a chapter yet to be read. It's still a work in progress with the potential to become an awesome story. I really look forward to reading and recommending the story when it is completed and seeing the writing style improve.

╰┈➤Book Name: Silent Scream

▸TITLE: 10/10

 The title matched the plot, with Jungkook's screams going unheard and the silent screams of anguish inside his own mind. 

▸COVER: 10/10

The overall picture fits the mood for the story's beginning. The struggles Jungkook faces every day and the tears that are shed are like the rain. They are both facing each other under umbrellas, which represents them facing adversity together in the end.  

▸Description or blurb: 9/10

Though the word' rape' can pull some readers in just because they like reading about that kind of thing, I think it gives away an integral part of the story. I think the part in the blurb would be suited to a line like, 'Taehyung sets out on a mission to find the one who violently hurt Jungkook.' This will lead the reader to want to know what that someone has done and what Taehyung did to find that person. 

▸Plot: 20/20

The plot is unique by having a character with a disability showcased in how it feels from both sides—the one with the disability and how it affects them—to those having to interact with them. The plot advances well.  

▸Writing Style: 15/25

The grammar, spelling, and expression of emotions are well done. The choice of vocabulary tends to be repetitive; there is a very frequent use of the word 'weight' EX: the emotional weight attached, the weight of rejection, the weight of societal expectations (2), the weight of his words, the weight of loss, crumble under the weight of the loss, crushing weight of the moment, the weight of responsibility, the weight of guilt, the weight of well intentioned, the weight of unspoken emotion, the weight of his words lingered, the weight of loss pressed, and several in just a couple of paragraphs or chapters. Solace is used frequently, as is vulnerability, in much the same way as the word weight. The pace of the story is good. The chapter of introduction and information on the characters can be found in the story itself. I find the a/n at the end of each chapter, before you can read on to the next chapter, interrupts the story flow, plus the a/n also gives away what comes next.  

▸Character Development: 20/20

 Character development was really good. The author does well growing the character of Taehyung from being irritated by a person with a disability to seeing beyond that disability, seeing the person underneath, and accepting and loving that person.  

▸OverAll Enjoyment: 15/20

 The repetitiveness of some words and the a/n giving away hints to what's in the next chapter took away from the story. The ending was a happy one, which I always enjoy. But sadly, overall enjoyment dimmed, so I have to give this a  15/20

╰┈➤Book Name: Friends To Lover

▸TITLE: 10/10

As the story is going on, the title seems to fit the plot as it is so far.  

▸COVER: 5/10

The cover is interesting and seems suited to a vampire story theme, which this is not. The font chosen makes it very hard to read the title of the book, as it is a hollow letter type of font. Choosing a different font for the graphic used would benefit the cover if the font was solid and larger in size. (Maybe even a colour change in font) This will make the title stand out on the cover. The little cluster of words at the top of the cover is almost illegible as the font is too small. Covers turn out smaller on this platform when posted, so test your cover on this platform to be able to see if things show up like you want. Over all, I have to say that the font and colour choice make this a troublesome issue for the eyes. Personally, the cover doesn't seem to belong to this story, as it has a totally different vibe to it.

▸Description or blurb: 2/10

 The blurb needs some touching up to fix the sentence structure after, I guess, what was to be a very short dialogue. The sentence is confusing. It has to be read several times to understand what the author was intending. Once you do, it fits the story. The sad part was that in the blurb, the author tells readers to leave twice if they are uncomfortable with a LGBTQ story. The book has on its cover Taekook, indicating it is a boy-to-boy story, and even states in the blurb that it is an LGBTQ story. The author even comes out and states, "If you are comfortable, then you can read it; otherwise, you can leave." I think that is inappropriate. This could be turning away new potential readers of future LGBTQ stories.   

▸Plot: 17/20

 The plot is another forced marriage scenario. It is not unique, but regardless, it is still interesting. It makes you want to find out if this forced marriage works out or not, and you look forward to more chapters as it is ongoing.  

▸Writing style: 10/25

(Judge Disclaimer: Any low scores are not meant to discourage, but to help an author find where they can improve and become better. My intentions are to help, not to hurt. But I will be honest in my judgement because I care. The separation of dialogue is good, except for the use of colon's. Quotation marks, or Guillemets, are needed for dialogue when the characters are actively speaking. Colon's are used for lists and when the writer is using something that was quoted. EX: In "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock," T.S. Eliot asks, "Do I dare disturb the universe?" Colon's used for list ex: He likes the following: pies, cakes, and cookies. The grammar and vocabulary missteps are something that can be corrected mostly by proofreading or using sources that help explain English grammar and use. Simple past and present tense mix-ups are found on several occasions. 

 One is where: 'done' was used instead of 'do.' Do/Does are present tense. Past tense: did; past participle: done. Word programmes can help with this, along with most grammar, vocabulary, and spelling issues. Avoid using abbreviations of words like "bcuz" unless it is the vernacular of a character actively speaking. If the story is a text-only type of story, then the conversations done with texting abbreviations fit the writing style. Some plural and singular hints: Two men's changed to two men (men is the plural form of man). The rapid changing of font style back and forth, especially in the last on-going chapter, is very distracting. The story is good but seems to be very rushed. The story seems to still be in its developmental stage, which is not the same as "on-going.". Ongoing means what is written is complete, corrected if need be, and then published with more to come. With improvement, this good story can be a great story. Don't give up; keep writing and growing in your writing skills; your story ideas are good ones.

 ▸Character Development:  10/20

There isn't much development in the characters. I know it is on-going with only 4 chapters so far, but it suddenly just jumps from a character being mentioned as a friend to a murdering kidnapper without any lead-up to or build-up of how the character got there. The total is based on what is currently available to judge. 

▸Overall enjoyment: 15/20

The rapid and frequent font changes and some writing style issues distracted from how good this story could turn out to be, along with trying to decipher some of what was written, taking a lot of the enjoyability of the story away. The last chapter of this on-going story makes it interesting to find out what happens to the two lead characters in any future chapters. Once again, the score is based on what is currently available to judge.

The cover is good, but surely there can be a better cover for the story, as it looks a little dull.

╰┈➤Book Name: Tales of heart

▸Title (10/10)

The title of the story is perfect and matches the story with tales about love, thus matching tales of heart.

▸Cover (10/10)

The cover is beautiful and perfect for the book, as it has one shot of Taekook.

▸Description (1/10)

There is no description. I know that it's a one-shot book, but still, you can add a few dialogues from different stories that will make readers want to read it.

▸Plot (18/20)

The plots for all the stories are mostly good. There can be a few problems in a few one-shots, or they may not be as good as others, but overall, all the one-shots are good and interesting. We can see a lot of variety in stories from different genres written in different ways.

▸Writing style (25/25)

The writing style is as good as the story itself. You have managed to go for a neutral writing style for all the oneshots; that is a great thing and even hard to do. The writing style is attractive and very easily understandable. The grammar is also nearly perfect, and their is a lot of fancy vocabulary.

▸Character development (20/20)

Character development for all the stories in such a short context is admirable. It is genuinely good considering the story is a book for collective oneshots.

▸Overall Enjoyment (18/20)

Overall, I really enjoyed the story. I mean, who won't? You get a lot of different one-shots to read in one book with amazing plots and characters. The only thing I would suggest is to mention a short, satisfactory description that can interest the readers.

▸Title (9/10)

The title is good and fits the story, but you can go for a more interesting title. Nonetheless, this one is also good

▸Cover (4/10)

The cover is very simple and not attractive enough. You can add few filters, change the font and use a clear picture of yoongi and jungkook

▸Description (9/10)

The description is interesting and short, but it will be perfect if you add some dialogue from the story in lines. That will make it more attractive to readers eyes for reading. 

▸Plot (20/20)

The plot of the story is very good; it's not necessarily unique, but I loved how you have shown little space in the plot. Adding a theme as such has made the story more interesting.

▸Writing style (25/25)

The writing style is pretty amazing

▸Character development (20/20)

The development of the story and the character is truly fabulous in such a short context.

▸Overall enjoyment (19/20)

Overall, the story is amazing, and you only need a few changes, such as a better title and obviously a better cover. It will make the book more amazing

Title (10/10)

The title of the story is perfect and matches with the storyline.

Cover (10/10)

The cover is beautiful, but I would suggest you change the font. We never knew one was a more calligraphic font size, so it easily mixes with the background.

Description (6/10)

The description can be improved; add a few more things to the description to make it more interesting. 

Plot (16/20)

The plot is good, but it is also quite annoying. The story is very fast-paced, because of which the story becomes a little boring.

Writing style (25/25)

The writing style is perfect.

Character development (18/20)

As I said, because of the very few chapters and the fast pace, the character development is not as good as it can be.

Overall enjoyment (18/20)

I really enjoyed the story; you only need to make a a few changes to make the story's best version.
