Author: Cross-Warrior

Plot:

I really like this plot. It's a nice idea that I don't think I've seen done before, it probably has but I haven't read it. I also like the atmosphere that you built with the diverged conscience moments, it is super intense and interesting. 

4/5

Grammar:

grammar it good

4/5

Descriptions:

I liked your descriptions in this book better, they didn't hold the same tacky quality as the other book did which is good. I also want to mention that you included way too much of that gym soccer game, oh, my, gosh. You could've cut that down by a lot and kept things interesting, but it killed my interest in the story. 

3/5

Characters:

They weren't horrible. Still, I feel like they could use a little more work, though I do think I liked the MC a bit more than the characters in your other book. In this one at least I'm concerned for him, and that sorta thing. 

3/5

What I Hated:

Hmm... I kinda hate the way you start this? But not all the way. I'm torn, because it is part interesting attention grabbing beginning but it also is a little bit movie or TV show kind of dramatic start as well. So, I don't know, what I think about it. 

You get really wordy and repetitive in some paragraphs, stop it. 

Also awkward sentences, watch out. 

Alright, I love soccer, I really do, but this is really boring. Like so much so that I don't think I can finish this chapter. I don't have much in the way of motivation and I need a lot to get through this. You were doing super well too. 

Alright spoiler alert, I skimmed the rest. 

2/5

Overall:

This was another fine book. Not horrible, not great just whatever. I think this one really could be great with some editing and tweaking!

Final Score:

16/25
