Cover: It was very good, I liked that it was half a face. The title was clear but didn’t stand out, it will attract people since it’s very colorful and unique. ⅘

Blurb: The blurb didn’t attract me as it had too many questions in it and instead of words out, they used abbreviations. And after the questions, there were too many question marks. Some of the questions didn’t really make sense either. It did kind of reveal what was going to happen, them falling in love and suggesting that they will face difficulties ahead.  3/10

•Title: It is relevant to the story as it kind of hints at the different type of social status that they both possess and the different status of love they have for each other. ⅘

•Grammer: There are many abbreviations of you and some others (nah etc.), there are many unnecessary ellipses and not a lot of full stops at all. Sometimes capital letters were used when they weren't needed. Also, sometimes they were a question mark followed by an ellipsis. There were also some capital letters missing at times. Instead of commas, ellipses were used in some instances and some sentences didn’t make any sense at all. The sentences aren’t well structured most of the time, but you could understand it most of the time. 5/20

•Writing style: the writing style isn't unique but not well used either, it's okay but sometimes it was hard to figure out what was being said. It’s not well organized at all, and the structure isn't even there. It’s mostly dialogue so we’re mostly hearing what the characters are telling each other. It does make me want to quit reading as a reader because there are so many wrong placements of punctuations and abbreviations etc. 4/15

•Creativity: It’s okay in creativity, it’s almost always the girl who's average but the roles have reversed, there was one scene where Tae was explaining why he hated rich people and that was pretty unexpected. It’s not much different except for the role switch and the fact that Y/N the rich girl has a crush on him. ‘U’ is repeated a lot and can be replaced in some instances. ⅗

•Plot: the plot was a little bit common, but I liked the idea of it. It was face- paced since the chapters were short, so it moved onto a certain scene very quickly. It didn’t have any major cliffhangers or plot twists, the flow of events seemed rushed at times as if it was thought out on the spot. It wasn’t too interesting but at the same time wasn’t boring. However, in the last chapter, Y/N took a bullet for Tae even though she ‘hated’ him which wasn’t much of a surprise given that love can't go away that quickly.  10/20

•Characters and emotions: the characters weren’t described too intently, just a rough idea of who the two main characters were but the way that the story was set out made the characters seem flat at times and sometimes they lacked emotion. Tae did develop and started to think about Y/N while Y/N became a cold person towards everyone until the end where she took a bullet for him. 8/15
