Title: The Nerd Who Hated Love

Genre: Teenfiction


The Cover: 10/10

It's one of those covers that strike me as a really cute and adorable ones. It's very simple with a white silhouette of a boy and the glasses to symbolise him and a big colourful title. For all those reasons, it's easy to memorise it and I wouldn't be surprised if more people wanted to hate a cover like that. Because of its simple look, it gives off that feeling of professionalism, it appears as a promising story. The cover is different from most of other covers on Wattpad in a good way. 

The Description: 9/10

I like it that it's short. Sometimes when I see a long description, I just want to close the internet and go do something else. You summed up the story in just a few sentences which is pretty much perfect. The descriptions gets to the point and I loved the warnings you mentioned for readers. I think that's an important factor for anyone. Though, I gotta tell you why the descriptions doesn't get the top possible score. For me, it's just a too typical description for Wattpad. It doesn't mean it's bad though, but it's just a matter of personal preference. 

The Plot: 8/10

The idea for a plot is good. There are too many people out there afraid of love and intimacy and if we're getting all these books about depression, anxiety and eating disorders, this topic deserves at least one as well. What was not my favourite part was the prologue. It was slightly a turn-off for me, like a longer description but when I think again you did pull it off nicely so I'm stuck in a weird conundrum here. It works but it kinda doesn't really work for me. I like to go on an adventure when I open the book, I like the secrecy and I love to feel like a detective in stories that aren't Thrillers. 

The Characters: 10/10

Another top score and this one is probably my favourite one. Erin is beautifully portrayed. He's that angsty teen without too much angst and a lot of insecurities pestering him. I can see myself at 15 reading this and crying from relating so hard to this. The way you described his internal/mental issues touched my heart. They were described to the last bit, I doubt there's anything you missed there. I also met Ethan and the two bullies. Ethan gives off the vibe of a sweetheart with much more to him and I'm not even mad, he is that mystery I was really dying for. For the bullies - it was a novelty to see one bully lashing it out on the other. 

Grammar & Punctuation: 10/10

I know you asked me to mention any mistakes but I didn't really spot any. If there were mistakes, they were very minor and probably the ones that wouldn't make much of a difference if fixed. For that you need a Grammar Nazi and I'm sorry, but I'm not really that strict - maybe I would be if I noticed any errors.

Advice & Overall Thoughts: 

Your story gives me the impression of being a really important one. Boyxboy, boyxgirl or girlxgirl, none of that matters to me because we're all people and we all face difficulties as teenagers. I can imagine this story attracting plenty of readers very soon. You just need to get it out there :)
