~Cover 8/10
The cover is good, attractive and as simple as it could be. It surely gives us an insight into the story foreshadowing the main leads- Jungkook first as the main male lead. The cover reflects the dark theme of the book.
In my opinion, this was one of the best covers I've seen but just a bit bland for my liking. It's just a personal opinion I have that it could be better; otherwise, it perfectly fits.
~Title 8/10
The title gave off the dark theme and dark vibes from the book and it sure was eye-catching to me. Again, this could also be improved yet it's perfect.
I don't see the relation of the title with the book until now. Maybe it will make sense when the story progresses but for now, it doesn't give the impression of the book.
~Description 9/10
The author of the book surely knows how to create a suspenseful atmosphere for the reader. The description was great in my honest view. It could be improved if the author has any plans to change it.
Maybe adding the scene of the ritual or adding information about the mark on her arm would be good?
~First Impression 10/10
I instantly fell in love with the book. The bond and dialogue between Y/n and Yoongi were so good that they radiated their personality and aura perfectly.
Adding one memory in the first chapter was a smart move which I would like to praise. It attracted me to the book and made me want to read more and see their bond develop. The suspenseful cliffhanger at the end was something I would like to appreciate too. Overall, I loved the first chapter. It was perfect.
~Plot 14/15
The plot is young for me to judge as the author has just started and is going deep into it. Until now, I have loved everything about it: How the author would leave the chapter at a cliffhanger, how we readers were shown about the personalities of the characters and everything.
In the later chapters, if the author could give more information about the mark, what would it look like? Which colour was it? Then it would be great.
~Grammar and Punctuation 12/15
The grammar was good, and the punctuation was good, too. I didn't find any grammatical errors or punctuation errors in the whole book. Just some minor spelling errors I noticed in the chapters while reading.
Like in chapter 4, you misspelled 'walking'. There were more errors in that chapter, and I suggest reading your book once, and just clearing them will be nice.
Also, I noticed when you wrote the dialogue, you pressed enter and then wrote the sentences in another line. There are two things you could do, for example:
"Geez, Are you dead?"
He tilted his head.
I noticed this a lot in your writing. I found it odd as it wasn't the correct way of writing. (I'm not quite sure if it is wrong but it was odd for me and stood out in your writing style.)
Other than that, there was nothing wrong with grammar.
~Characters 10/10
As I already mentioned, I liked the characters a lot in the story. Y/n's personality with Yoongi was like the best duo. I loved them, but sadly as the story progresses, we encounter the death of Yoongi. Sure, I wanted to cry at that time seeing my favourite character dead.
Coming back to the characters, till now I've found them pretty interesting. The different personas and their past stories are quite amazing.
Well done, author!
~Pacing 9/10
The pacing was perfect. Throughout the whole book, I didn't feel that the author was going fast or slow.
I just felt that the author was rushing when Y/n and Lia got kidnapped and Yoongi was dead. Adding more sentences in that scene would be great and do a lot. When they found Yoongi in the car, adding a bit of flashback of Y/n and Yoongi's friendship would be amazing.
Showing readers when they became friends at that moment will be amazing.
Everything was perfectly structured.
~Overview 10/10
Overall, I loved the book. 'Red Strings' is one of the best books which just needs recognition on this platform. It's well-structured and a thousand times better than many fan fiction books.
Author, you have a great talent, your book is amazing and it deserves a lot more.
Total 90/100
Author! You have done great so far!
