Title: 5/5

I mean, it's hard for me to not like a title, but I especially love titles that force me to Google meanings. And this Google adventure told me this was a Vietnamese and Chinese name meaning "flower," which prompted me to go to my favorite names site for a more in-depth view and proved that Google isn't always right. It's Korean. Although there are related Chinese, Vietnamese, and Japanese names meaning "flower," and the Chinese and Japanese names are written with the same character as Korean Hanja, and I could continue down this rabbit hole much longer than necessary, but I think you get the picture. 😅

Cover: 4/5

The only flaws I see with this cover are with your name and the text at the top, specifically the word "novel." The white blends in a bit too much with the light blue background. I don't think you should change the font color or anything, but finding a way to add a little more definition to the text to help it stand out more would be ideal. And this is one of those things that's better on the larger image that I get when I click the book title on your profile, so yay for Wattpad compression of smaller images on the table of contents page. 🫤
