Book title: Just Another Teen Romance Novel
Author: milla_davidson
Reviewer : _wordmist_addict_
1. Title
The title is quite interesting and definitely gives away the theme of the storyline. The protagonist trying to run from the cliché things and all is certainly attractive. Long titles don't work much but surprisingly this one does work.
2. Cover
The cover is quite plain and simple with just a background layered with text. But even after that, it conveys the vibes of the novel very well and is doing justice to the story.
3. Blurb
The blurb is one of the best things about this book and promises a lot of things to readers. I really liked the things you included and the reasons why cliché was something the protagonist didn't like. I admire the way you have written the blurb and I can assure you that readers will certainly want to read this book.
4. Aesthetics/ banners/ covers/playlists used in the chapters
None used. You can use them for visual appeal.
5. First impression ( made from the first few paragraphs, blurb, cover and title)
The first impression is quite good. Readers will surely hold onto the book considering the title and blurb along with the cover. The opening paragraph sounds more like a journal than a story which might put off some readers but other than that things are good.
6. First chapter
The first chapter is good but instead of giving vibes as of a story - it looks like a diary entry or something because it is monotonous. In a story you need to explain and elaborate on the facts and scenes. This is not a diary entry wherein you can write the things happening around you in short just to get things off. You need to make the readers feel and experience what you are writing. I really recommend you to work upon the writing style and narration of the story especially the first chapter to enhance your writing and book.
7. Characters development
Due to less number of chapters yet, the character development is not something which can be commented upon.
8. Plotline
The plotline is still developing and progressing. The usual happenings in the bus, with protagonist's friends is very relatable as teenage readers will definitely get hooked. But then also, the storyline is not yet clear as chapters are still being written.
9. Grammar
The grammar is good, with almost no errors except for one or two. The vocabulary used is good and effective. Good work.
10. Word count of chapters/ number of chapters
The word count is good and fair enough. No changes needed.
11. Writing style and flow of the book
The writing style is good and flowy. The writing is convincing and provides depth to the story. The flow is also smooth and almost perfect. A few instances are there which require more elaboration but overall it is good.
12. Interaction and socialization with readers
The interaction is okay okay but can be improvised. Socialization is there but interactive author's note could also help spread the word about your book. Try joining book clubs to improve in writing and also find readers.
13. Hook/ overall enjoyment
The overall enjoyment is there but the hook is missing at some points. Try to make it more appealing by adding your unique twists and turns.
14. Constructive criticism
Change the opening and make it more interesting. The monotonous tone of the opening lines may put off the readers.
15. Suggestions
Try proof reading your book. You can edit it once the book is complete to improvise the book.
*Queries :
None.
Rating : 5/10
A quick read which tries to go against the cliché by going creatively with the cliché !
