Reviewer:- TheBookishNerd_

Author:- itsISHU

Book name:- The Bet

Title :-9 /10

The title is apt for the story. The story ended just right, making the title appropriate for story.

Cover:-5/10

It's a Harry Potter fanfiction. Not
exactly,but related. Frankly to say when I first saw the cover, I would have mistaken it for Werewolf story if not for the title of the story (Remus Lupin fanfiction). I suggest atleast put Hogwarts at background to make readers more pointedly to say potterheads attract to it.

Blurb:-8 /10

The blurb is written preety well. It is successful in developing interest or let's say curiosity about the bet like- how and why?

Storyline:- 9/10

The plot started off good and went on really well. Though you put up notes like there is no Remus and Athea scene, I really didn't feel the book is going out of track or is off track. It kept me entertained irrespective of the scene .

Dialogue and expression:- 9/10

They were really good. The conversation cut out really well almost everywhere.

Creativity:-9/10

The scenes, comebacks were superb. I smiled, cried and felt every emotion of the characters.

Overall engagement:- 8/10

Grammar, spelling and typo: 9.5/10

I haven't found any. Just one or two I guess here and there. This section is really free of flaws. It's not really a case with every book out there.

Character:-9/10

I loved the way every character was presented.
From keeping the character's personna from original ones intact to amazing original characters of your own, the growth shown is really good.
My personal fav was Laura, though. I loved her carefree nature and felt connected to her since I also love my food very much. But her growth was great. From being a mauderer hater to coming in peace with them,she had a good journey.
For Clare, her admiration for them was shown perfectly. But then again supporting her best friends over them was also wow.
And about Athea her character growth was also shown perfectly. From her unknowingly attracted to Lupin and thinking it as hate to accepting him as whole.

Flow:-9/10

I didn't feel the story was dragging anywhere.

Total:- 84.5/100

Few Corrections:-

1. Chapter 1:-..... as I witnessed the argument between my dormmates not roommates Its Hogwarts!!!
2. Chapter 2 grammatical correction in second last para
3. Chapter 36
'its the way few months went by' the number of times you have used it I thought it would end up with them being at the end of completing their education. I suggest to use weeks instead of months.
