1. The Anahoma Journey: Saviors of Anahoma
By annajerinTotal score: 35/50
To begin with, I'll say your title was too long and not catchy. It made it seem like some sort of fantasy book. Your blurb is a bit okay but needs editing. And your cover, I'm not a fan of it at all. It doesn't look attractive. When I started with your book, I felt like it wasn't Teen Fiction, and even after reading all 5 chapters, I still feel like your book fits more in the General Fiction/Adventure genre, so personally, I would advise you to change the genre of your book. I love the way your book starts and my enjoyment level was high. I loved Agatha's behavior but the problem was that it was difficult to pinpoint her age or class. So the going to school aspect was confusing for me as I had no idea, which made the book seem unrealistic at that point in time. Grammar-wise, your book was okay but you use 'led' instead of 'led' which is not supposed to be so. Overall, it was a good read, just not what I expected from Teen Fiction.
2. The Cost of Falling

I like your title, it's very nice and simple. Your cover? I don't like it at all. The one mark was for how visible the title was. Whatever idea you were trying to depict in the cover could be brought out better by visiting a graphic shop. Your blurb was short, but I didn't like the formation, and how there were too many 'and's. The content of the book itself was pretty good. I love your characters, I don't fancy your writing style but it's very professional. I noticed a part where the movie 'It' was being referred to. I feel like it would be better to quote it (") or italicize it, but that's just an opinion. Another thing I would have suggested a while back if I had judged your book before it was completed would be that you should have made the book from Emma's point of view. I felt like lots of feelings were flying everywhere, but it is just a personal opinion. Definitely, your book has great potential, and it could be seen right from the start.
3. From Nobody To Somebody: Charlie's Story

Just by reading your blurb, I could tell that I was going to enjoy this book a lot. It reminds me so much of the movie 'Little' because the idea behind it was similar to yours. I love everything about your book, especially how you add real-life scenarios to it, but the first appearance when it comes to your cover is very poor. I think you should change that. Otherwise, your story is very good.
4. You are the One for me

Your book has potential but you just have to unleash it. The blurb had a good idea behind it, but sadly, it wasn't structured well. The book was really confusing for me as I couldn't really understand what was going on most of the time. Moreover, the frequent change in point of view made it more confusing. Besides that, your book needs a better cover and a well-structured blurb because the saying "don't judge a book by its cover" does not mean first impressions don't matter. So, good job and keep writing!
