(This is my first original book that I've written and shared. I'm so used to fan fiction!. Can anyone give me constructive criticism please and thank you?. I really need it and it'll help me as a writer in future. What should I do to improve?.)

***

20-something Samantha Walker moved from Pennsylvania to a town called Waters, Washington. A year later, Set in 2013, Sammi dreamed of someday finishing her autobiography book in a new place, while working at a record store. 

There, Sammi meets new friends, 
and a guy named Emerson Greene. This story evolves around four young adult friends as they go through the fun and cold hard life of adulthood. Samantha gets closer with her friends and maybe even Emerson. 

However, what happens when Em's big secret is out and his father has beef with a mobster named Frank?.
Samantha didn't know being an adult meant dodging love and fighting off bad guys!. Sammi may have found something better to write about. 

However, this wasn't an action movie, right? This was real life and Samantha and her circle are soon about to find out that adulthood is not just about fun and freedom. 
...... 


**Story mentions emo/any other type of rock/metal music. Mainly, based on music from my era. Late 90s, early 2000s (hence, golden emo years lol) but the story also mentions mental illness, suicide, murder, drugs, r*pe and alcohol... So, If anything triggers you... I'm so sorry! It's not my intention!.

My Stolen Jewel by Roseheartisbored

Jacob, an abusive, jealous, and manipulative man, just cannot seem to impress his ex in front of his new partner. Rather, he can't win him back. In the City of New Lunadia, where people are hybrids of humans and "spirits" such as wolves, zombies, or elemental forces of nature, there are two of them who's lives are about to change. Elli Fox, a 21-year old telepathic vampire who is also a famous popstar, Sunny Fox, Elli's wife, a 21-year old shadow spirit with powers of infliction, teleportation, and increased strength, and Noah Woodson, a 21-year-old empath with the power of light manipulation and creation. They were highschool friends who hadn't seen each other since college. One day, they bump into eachother at a party. Noah uses whatever chance he gets to tell Elli about everything, but also, to confess about how he truly feels about his friend. Elli and Sunny keep him their little secret. Elli loves Noah so much and wouldn't wanna see him get hurt. But it doesn't stay a secret for long. Hearts are broken, sparks fly, and most importantly, fists are thrown. This story will occasionally be edited, as I may not like how things sound over time. I am progressively getting better at writing smut. If you read this book again and notice some changes, don't worry! I'm just trying to make it better. I wrote this about a year ago and I have grown a lot since then. This book contains LGBTQIA+ relationships, people, and detailed sexual scenes. If you are against the LGBTQIA, i suggest you read another book and leave no hate. Because you don't have to. Thank you!

I decided to explore a little and found a room that had a beautiful black bed. It was very masculine, but the smell gave me butterflies. I approached the curtains on the large and long windows and gently touched them. "May I help you?" a tall figure asked with his hands In his pockets. I quickly turned around and was shocked at the sight I was seeing. It was the man with beautiful brown eyes. "No, I'm sorry, I just liked the way your room looked," I told him with a slight smile. ₊˚ʚ ᗢ₊˚✧ ﾟ.

My Bright Light by FairozSherif

This is my first book, so if you have any expectations, drop them, you'll get disappointed by the writing. Though the scenes aren't as bad, so maybe you should give it a try. *THIS BOOK HAS SOME SPELLING MISTAKES DUE TO FAST TYPING* Amelia Bloom Carder was a really smart girl who wanted to be a forensic pathologist and was studying hard to excel at being one. Until one day all that changed, because of her family secrets and dark history. She was now caught up in the mafia drama and couldn't seem to find a way out. Adrian Samuel D'sanni was a handsome 23 year old man who was always mistreated by his parents and couldn't find a person to comfort him in times needed. So he grew up hating the world and all its given him but that was soon to change. TW: this book contains sensitive subjects that might trigger some people.

A PROMISE OF TOGETHERNESS by amazehoney

Some people write for fun, and some do it because it bring fortune to them and their are some who do it because they don't know how to express their thoughts so they spill it in pages. I belong to the last category. Hi everyone this is honey and this is my first book. It's a complicated love story where two people fall in love with each other and at last because of a misunderstanding they went apart. This story has everything involved, it will make you laugh, cry and remind you of someone special. It is a story of small town girl named Jennie whose only dream was to make her family proud of her. Jennie is a daughter of the small business owner MR. ANDREW STEWART and his wife MARTHA. She got facial expression like her dad (fair complexion, black hair, brown eyes) but her height was just 5.2, and she is very much close to his brother graham. But as she was having a small height and a baby face, people usually mistaken her as a college student perhaps she was working in a well-known organization in LA itself. This story is a story of Jennie and Harry, who became friends then best friends and again stranger. So is this the end of their story or god has some different plan. Both Harry and Jennie were poles apart, if Harry says left Jennie goes to right, he was tall with the height of 6 ft. and Jennie was short, he was more of a practical kind of guy and she was very emotional, he loves to drink and smoke and she has never touch it, he got angry on small things but she don't, but with the time they became inseparable. So what made them to hate each other? Join their life journey and revive your own love story. Ignore the grammatical mistake and enjoy the story. Give your valuable comments and support.

You V.S. Mafia by scaryberry123

[COMPLETED] "Shoot," Joey mumbles, letting out a string of profanities under his breath. We turn around to find a group of men, all with guns, standing where we just came from, and they look pissed... probably because they were forced to run through this tunnel after us. "Thought you could get away, didn't you?" The man who I saw before asks. His husky voice booms in the hollow tunnel, reverberating off of the dirt walls. His voice sounds familiar, and a realization strikes me. It sounds like the man from my dream. I remember him holding a gun and wearing a blue suit, smiling evilly at me. "Leave us alone," Joey says, sounding dangerous and snapping me out of my thoughts. The levity of the situation hits-we need to get out of here. I look around for a route of escape and thankfully I see a light, literally, at the end of the second tunnel. I let out a small, almost inaudible, gasp and nudge Joey. He looks at me and I subtly gesture with my head to the second tunnel. He glances at it and immediately we are on the same page. His jaw sets and he looks at the group. The man speaks up again, chuckling darkly-a sound I will never forget and will be permanently etched into my brain, "You can thank your father for starting this mess." -------------------------- Liza was a normal teenaged girl, living the average life that an eighteen year old girl should be living. She had good friends, good grades, a happy family, a loving boyfriend, and an overall content life, seemingly having everything a person could ask for. However, when she somehow gets thrown into the mix and is in the crossfires of a brutal mafia war that she has no business being a part of, things spiral out of control and she has to do whatever it takes to regain her freedom. In this hectic adventure of gun fights, torture, bank robbing and intimidating mafia men, Liza has to face it all, putting her average life on the line in order to defeat the bad guys and go back to her normal way of living.

Wolves Den by Koda122

Remi has always loved the forest, the different sounds, smells, the way she could get lost in it and never have to go home to her non-existent parents. She goes in and out of her life with her best friend everyday just waiting until they're both old enough to leave their small boring town. But one day Remi is attacked, and nearly killed, by a man in the forest. When she wakes up everything's different. She feels something inside her, a power, but she has no idea what happened to her. All she remembers is the man's strange yellow eyes. When three new boys show up at her school, one with yellow eyes, asking her question she gets nervous. And then one night while heading to go get her friend she's taken and thrown into a world she didn't know existed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Remi?" Jen says suddenly. "Hmm?" I hum back. "Do you ever wish you could just live in the forest? Away from everyone and everything?" She looks at me. "Free." We stare at each other for a long time. I see the real meaning in Jen's eyes. Her worries for going home to her overly strict parents. Her fears for the future and the unknown in general. "If we lived in the forest we wouldn't have gummy bears any more." I comment to lighten the mood. She doesn't find it funny. "I'm serious Remi! What if we did run away?" "Jen, we can't just run away. I know your parents are strict but I truly think they just want what's best for you." She says nothing. For a moment I fear she's mad at me but then she puts her head on my shoulder and I know we're okay.

She saw what happened, and she saw what didn't happen. When she hears the accusations made against him, she takes it upon herself to free them both from their stupid, Washington town.

Punz x Y/N by renotco

This is my first fanfiction, I am blaming this reason if my book is bad rather then admit I am shit at writing. I am from the UK and don't know much about America so if certain aspects of this story don't make sense I am also blaming that. This story is set in Florida, everyone in this story is 19 instead of their irl ages. This book is about a girl who moves to Florida and she meets a small group of people who change her college experience. she is a streamer and inspires to have fun with it and make new friends. she meets two streamers who help her channel grow... well this is until the story takes a turn for the worse. I hope you like this story and that I don't royally fuck it up <3 comment and tell me tour opinions and any ideas you want me to add.
