REVIEW

FULL MARKS OBTAINED: 67.5/80

1.PLOT: 8.5/10
I really liked the idea of your story and how it revolves around a very important life lesson; whether to fight or cause self-harm when everything gets messed up and there's not a single flicker of hope visible in your life. I kinda liked the way you left certain chapters at cliffhangers. :)

2.GRAMMAR: 4/5
There hardly any grammatical errors in your work but in some places, it might make confusion. Try using past tense while writing any story, it looks good. Writing any story in present tense makes it really confusing sometimes which disrupted the flow of your story. That's where I found some tense problems but you know you can edit them and make your story flawless. :)

3.VOCABULARY: 4.5/5
You have a great sense of vocabulary and I appreciate your way of describing simple feeling dizziness in loads of different ways. But, but, but learning never stops. You can go on adding more and more new words to your own knowledge book. :)

4. BOOK TITLE: 3.5/5
"Status Quo" is a very unique and attractive title but it just didn't fit in with the plot you have shared so far. Maybe, it will eventually make sense when you finish the whole story. But I feel, the title can be made more relatable to the story. :)

5.INTERACTION: 5/5
I see you interact with your readers a lot and that's really impressive. :)

6.BOOK COVER: 3/5
To be honest, the cover doesn't really speak to me. I mean the neon lights are cool but you can use a much more attractive background with more stylized fonts. It doesn't need to be too flowery and colorful, it just can be simple, sober yet classy. ( Well, if you are searching for great covers, then we are here to help you.

7.BOOK DESCRIPTION: 7.5/10
The description was nice but it won't really attract the readers, to be honest. Your plot is really great but comparing your description to your plot, it just didn't stand out. I hope you get what I mean. :)

8.EVOKING EMOTIONS: 9/10
You are really good at this. I really felt the emotions and even for a moment, I thought that I was Jossie!! No, seriously, I really liked this particular element of your story. I felt the anger, the fear, the sadness, and even the humor. xD xD :)

9. PLOT TWISTS: 9/10
Geez, you just didn't stop adding plot twists and that's what kept me hooked till the last chapter you updated. And you have already mentioned in your author's notes that you like giving your reader shocks. Keep it up. I really appreciate it. :)

10. REVIEWER'S OPINION: 13.5/15
I have already added this book to my reading list and will be waiting for your further updates. The savageness in some of your dialogues got me. Some of them had philosophical meanings and some of them were genuinely funny. And it seems you are a fan of BTS ( gives a wide grin), never mind I like their music too. Their reference was cool. As I said above, the tense problems. Yeah, I got confused and trouble reading the first few chapters but then got used to it. And lastly about your description. I don't know but it lacked something. Overall, it was an amazing book and could've been a whole lot better. :)

Sorry, if I offended you in any way. :)

Author, you rock. 🎉🎊
