⭐️ COVER ⭐️
2/5
Personally, I think this cover is a little too dark for the tone of this story. While it does cover some dark themes, I think perhaps the cover could be a little more romantic given the storyline. I also think the font is too thin and doesn't stand out enough. I do like the picture of Hoseok you've used though.

⭐️ DESCRIPTION ⭐️
2/5
While it does tell us a bit about Hee-Young's background, it doesn't tell us a lot about the the plot itself. Perhaps something that links to the boys would have worked better in fully conveying the concept of the plot.
Maybe you could start it with something like 'Hee-Young would never have guessed that walking into a pawn shop at 4am would change her life forever...'

⭐️ PLOT ⭐️
3/5
I thought you had an interesting concept but I thought that perhaps you could have built up the Bangtan 'gang' part a little more. I did like the romance between the pair, but I felt like some parts of the plot moved a little too quickly. Whenever you're doing a kidnapping fic I feel like the pace does need to be slowed down just to convey the changing emotions of the character.

⭐️ WRITING ⭐️
2.5/5
There were a few grammatical and spelling mistakes but nothing too major. I think perhaps the tone of the writing was a little too informal for the nature of the book, and maybe you could have delved deeper into the emotions of Hee-Young. I didn't feel like we ever got to see her intense feelings or her reactions to the new situation around her.

⭐️ CHARACTERS ⭐️
3/5
I liked your characters, and I thought that Hee-Young was a fun character. As I said before, I think maybe you could have gone further into her emotions and focused on the way her past has shaped her. I liked the way you characterised Hoseok because he seemed very caring and cute.

With the addition of a bit more depth, I think you're onto a really great book!
