lueurjoon thank you for requesting a review - I hope it's useful!

⭐️ COVER ⭐️

4/5

I think all your covers are really beautiful, and the fonts work really well together. I think potentially the cover doesn't quite match the tone the story but I understand that it's fitting with the covers of your other books. Overall, it looks really aesthetic and pretty.

⭐️ DESCRIPTION ⭐️

5/5

I thought this was such a well-written description. It gives great insight into the plot while remaining quirky and interesting, and I think it really sets up the reader to be excited about the story.

⭐️ PLOT ⭐️

5/5

Now this is some next level cool shit. I've never read a fic which was so intricate, so clever, and so totally unique. It just works so well, and it has so many layers to unpick and decipher. It balances comedy and tragedy well, it shows a real understanding of political intrigue and the power of the press, and it's also really funny. Bravo!

⭐️ WRITING ⭐️

4.5/5

This was so easy to read, and you had a lovely balance between dialogue and description. Occasionally it felt like some of the paragraphs were too long, but that was literally the only flaw I could find.

⭐️ CHARACTERS ⭐️

5/5

What I loved about this is you placed the characters in roles that I never see them in, and that was so refreshing. Taehyung as a politician was great because we got to see all the different sides to him, and Hoseok made for a great character as well.

⭐️ SPECIFIC POINTS ⭐️

I didn't notice any problem with the dialogue and I thought the story moved along really nicely.  Your concept is so interesting that it almost doesn't need to rely so much on dialogue and description to make it stand out.

⭐️ OVERALL ⭐️

Well done!
