Book: The Wedding Club
Author: Orangeswiss
I love the book's cover, it's eye-catching. The synopsis is good, but you can remove the warning there "There will be errors…". It could act as a deterrent to those who want to read your book.
The chapters are well written and interesting. Your description was average at the beginning but improved considerably along the chapters. Your punctuations are good, your storyline is good too and the grammar is good with a few misspelling of words and grammatical errors. Nothing that editing won't fix or you can talk to someone to do the editing for you.
I'm assuming the story is set in Nigeria due to the reference to Ogun state. Your seasons, or rather the seasons in the book, should be made to suit the Nigerian seasons; we don't have summers in Nigeria. You might want to change that to give it more Nigerian feeling.
I loved the easy friendship between the three girls and the sibling bickering among Funmi's siblings.
In chapter five, you wrote a line "The hot water cascade down my back making me shiver." You might probably want to change that to warm.
In conclusion, the book is good. I found it interesting and the characters hilarious, which is a feat considering that I don't read Teen fiction.
👍👍
I love the fact the book is mainly centered on young women trying to chase their dreams, it is empowering and impressive, because I haven't come across a lot of Nigerian books like this , so I enjoy the fact that it's really different. Unfortunately the story is really slow paced, I'm finding it really difficult to continue or to finish it , but I guess that's because it's just starting, I just don't really feel pulled along. Also the main characters are not quite relatable, I haven't really seen any depth to them, but like I said before , the book is just starting so maybe the author still hasn't uncovered them yet. So my bad. Honestly I'm not just feeling the story yet, maybe it's because of the different point of views or the confusing amount of characters. I guess I should give it time to grow. Anyways, it's just my opinion, but I do love the idea behind the story, it's rather good. I also hope you continue because the book has a lot of potential, Good work!

I like the way you were able to mix different cultures as bffs. You were also able to bring out the Nigerian flavor in the characters, especially Funmi and Dubem's mothers.
I had nice laughs while reading.
There are some typos which of course editing will fix. I like the whole entrepreneurship drive the girls are into. And I also think they're too young you know. You might want to adjust the girls' ages. It's a really nice book and with the way you've started I know you'll be able to improve and make it a bestseller.
Great job!
You kinda got me hungry with the jollof rice in the beginning....
Fun characters, love the bit of craziness each of them possess. A few spelling errors when I first began, but along the way it got better. Their conversations were quite relatable, with the usual Nigerian slangs and banters.
However, I feel the characters should be given more depths, like apart from them being of different tribes, let's see what makes them more different. Fine, they are a lot similar in characters, but let's try to know them on a personal level. Is one of them a bit shy? A bit of a talkative? Is one of them insecure? Does one of them plan to go outer space and hope to find out if the alien boyfriend she has a crush on truly exist?
Too much? Disregard it, I'm sure he doesn't exist.
They are strong, dream chasers and I love that about them, kudos girl👍🏼 especially loved when one of them decided to take on her sister's birthday planning, great step
I loved that line too " Life is not all akara and puff puff"
Keep doing great.

The storyline is great. I love it. The book cover is eye catching. I like the way you chose the povs as the whole book centers on the three main characters. Readers get an insight to the life of each character. As for the typos, a little bit of editing will do.
I also love the way the characters are passionate about their dreams. The drama that unfolds between the characters is hilarious especially Funmi and Tunde.
In all, the book is amazing 👌🏽
