Title (5/5):

The title fits the story perfectly. Love it!

Cover (4/5):

I really love the cover. It portrays the book and it's title very well. My only concern is the fact that it is blurry. Nevertheless, it can be fixed easily, and will look perfect in no time at all!

Blurb (4/5):

The blurb was also great. It gives away the theme of the book, without making it too predictable. It keeps the events in the book hidden, but gives a clue to the reader on what they're about to read. But, I can suggest a way to make it better.

First line: -new job and new friends.

Second para, first line: Just when she thinks that too much has already happened for her perfect life to be ruined again...

Third para, first line: Events similar to the ones from two years ago repeat themselves, leaving Kady in complete chaos.

Of course, these changes don't have to be made. Otherwise, the blurb is flawless.

Genre (5/5):

The story contains all of the aspects which books of the genre "Romance" contain. That's awesome, and nothing needs to be changed over here..

Originality (5/5):

The book was unique, and had a great plot. The thing that made it so original was the secrets about the characters which were revealed little by little. Since the book is only eight parts right now, I'm not sure what path it will take in the future. However, I can tell that it's going to be a great one, and the originality and unique plot has me excited for the next chapters. Really great job done by the author!

Description (9/10):

The descriptions were completely amazing. Specifically, the descriptions of the emotions within the minds of the characters. They showed the readers exactly what the character was thinking, and proved to be a form of character development.

I will say, the descriptions will seem even more perfect if some are added about the scenes. There were some which described the setting and character emotions, but there were very few one's which actually described the scene. That is the only advice that I can give to improve the descriptions, as the other's are already great.

Character Development (9/10):

From the eight chapters that I read, I could definitely see the character development coming along. Since there were only eight chapters, I wasn't able read chapters with a lot of the character development, but I can see that it's moving along the right path. Slowly but surely, Kadys character was developed, albeit slightly, but I feel that the character development is happening at the perfect pace.

As the story progresses through the chapters, I would advise for the author to continue to develop the character, bit by bit, at a steady pace. Similar to the pace at which the character is developing right now, but just a little faster.

Plot (10/10):

I really loved the plot. I'm a sucker for a good Romance book, and this was exactly that. It contained a unique plot, and had me hooked from the beginning, all the way till the last chapter posted. I like the fact that the characters pasts are slowly revealed. I can already tell that the background of the character is going to have a huge impact on the story, and the way the author is showing the bits and pieces which complete the puzzles called the main characters, is simply astounding.

I also love the fact that characters are introduced one by one. This makes sure that the reader doesn't get too confused, and holds a tight grip to the main plot of the book. This technique is applied effectively, and makes the plot even more well done than it already is.

The plot was one of my most favorite parts of the story (or at least the amount that I've read so far), and made me sit back and enjoy as I laughed and gasped at the scenes. A huge, huge "outstanding work!" to the author on that!

Grammar (15/15):

The grammar was perfect! Of course, there were a teeny tiny handful of typos here and there, but everything else was completely perfect! I have nothing more to say for this, so "Amazing work!" to the author from my side.

Structure (5/5):

Again, the structure was great! All the chapters made sense, and nothing seemed to happen too slowly or too quickly. The events happened slowly, but surely, making the reader anticipate the next chapter, but not enough for them to leave the book.

The chapters are in chronological order, with the exclusion of the retelling of some past events, and don't confuse the reader. The paragraph's are broken correctly, and nothing seems to be out of place.

Vocabulary/Spelling (10/10):

The spelling and vocabulary were perfect. Only some distinctive words have been used, but that is understandable for a Romance book. I wasn't able to find spelling mistakes, and the few that I did find will be cleared away once the book is edited, just once. Otherwise, there weren't any errors in the vocabulary or spelling.

Overall enjoyment (10/10):

I really, really enjoyed this book. It seems like the perfect Romance. It's hilarious, emotional, and left my emotions all over the place. The fact that there are little to no errors such as grammatical issues or spelling errors, makes the entire reading process even better. I truly felt as if I was reading a book by a professional, and thoroughly enjoyed every, single moment of the time I spent reading it.

To the author: Your book is amazing! My only advice to you is to continue publicizing your book, and keep signing it up for more awards, so that you're book can get recognized. Thank you so much for choosing me to do your review!
