Book - They Skedaddled
Author - SongYeEun2500
Reviewer - katopark
Review:
----------
PRESENTATION - 18.5/30
1. Appearance - 3.5/5
The dark vibe that the cover gave off was amazing. I liked the whole theme.
2. Title- 3/5
The title was nice. But somewhere it felt a little off. They Skedaddled is amazing, in the least. But, like I said, it didn't have that sort of captivity.
3.Cover - 7/10
The dark vibe was great. The font used for the author's name could've been a little better and bolder. Besides that I did feel an issue with the female lead's face claim as IU. It isn't an IU x Jungkook ff, so it can be a little misleading. (But later I noticed that her eyes were just darkened off, which didn't exactly look that great.)
4. Description - 2/5
There were a few errors (grammatically) in the blurb. It gave off the vibe of a normal hate-to-love trope in the beginning. Mystery was a little lacking. But overall, the blurb was okay.
5. First impressions- 3/5
The first impression was quite okay. Apart from the few issues with the flipping-back-and-forth tenses, it's a good work at first glance.
----------
LANGUAGE SKILLS - 21/30
1.Grammar - 5/10
Slight issues were noticed with the formation of your dialogues. Maybe you didn't notice them, but edit it and take your time while doing so.
Chapter 6
"I thought...24 hours," It was Mr.Jeon mocking...his face.
I'm not sure whether that 'I' in 'It' is supposed to be capitalised.
In chapter 8, the on-call part could've been framed in a descriptive manner.
There are evident issues with tenses, dear author. It's quite visible and that puts me off a little. It starts all the way from blurb, and continues upto the very end.
Chapter 1
'It's neither a test nor a competition, but for those two, it was nothing less than that too.'
There are two tenses (that are poles apart) in this sentence.
Chapter 6
'She was even trained for laughing and smiling, how a rich princess behaves in public.'
Again, switching between tenses.
To add to that, a few places had missing punctuations too (apostrophe). And a few uncommon punctuations (semi-colon) remained forgotten.
2.Vocabulary - 6/10
The vocabulary in the book is quite basic. Beginners (readers) will be able to grasp it easily. But the ones who've read a lot of books might find it bland. It's because a lot of words you've used have better substitutes. I'm not saying it's bad, but there's potential to do better.
3. Spellings - 10/10
There wasn't practically anything I found that had any typos or textual language. Spellings were on point.
----------
WRITTEN CONTEXT - 22.5/30
1. Plot - 7/10
The plot was developed and well-rounded. There were a few gray areas that I felt had been too cliché. Besides that, the animosity between Jungkook and SooYoon didn't have that much of a strong base. Try to develop on that. Otherwise, think it was good, so far
2. Flow - 7.5/10
The flow was okay, I feel. There's not much you have to improve in this regard. Though you could fasten the pace in certain scenes. I did feel a little put off when the phrases like 'Sooyoon POV' or 'On-Call' came up. It isn't really appreciated, as a reader.
3. Character development - 8/10
I felt the character development in most cases. Sooyoon was great. In the beginning though, I couldn't really grasp her at all. But later, she was sailing smoothly. Jungkook, on the other hand, could have been given a little more emphasis in terms of narration and emotions.
OVERALL OF THE BOOK - 6/10
FINAL REVIEW IN SHORT TO SUMMARIZE EVERYTHING
Your plot was nice. And the descriptions were too. But I will strongly urge you to build up your vocabulary and also try to convey things a little metaphorically. Makes the writing seem a little more from the heart, I'd say. Edit your chapters before publishing. Otherwise, it's okay. My marking may be a little towards the harsher side, so don't be disheartened.
TOTAL - 62/100
