Teen fiction: If We're Honest

This book was written by
MeowLizzyKitty


--> Cover/Description
I like the title, in the kind of society that we live right now, honesty is not always well accepted so that definitely raises my curiosity, the book cover could be more meaningful in my opinion.
The description is good, but due to the hint of the plot, could be more elaborate, it doesn't raise many questions and the suicide subject is definitely not a usual thing to have on the teen fic, so you have a great opportunity to stand out from the rest, just try to use that into your favor.

-->The beginning
I have mixed emotions while reading your first chapter, I really want to like it but at the same time, the chapter seemed a little bland, is too formal and is not much description of surroundings or emotional side of the characters. The story seems to move a little faster than it needed to be, and doesn't really makes sense, for example, Belle was planning to jump off a window to commit suicide and a few moments later she states her parents sacrifice themselves for her and the least she could do was to stay alive? Doesn't make sense, emotionally you skipping a bunch of steps, is a process and not adding that gives the impression of emotionally detached.
And why was Emma hiding behind bushes at the very beginning, you don't explain, so doesn't give me a very realistic scene.
You have to take the time develop your story and invest more in the emotions of your characters.

-->Detailing/Grammar
Your grammar is very good, but I would suggest you work in your detailing because details are what fulfill the chapter, you have to add that to make it more realistic and get your readers to understand your story a little better, it feels a little bland.

-->Character Development/Plot
The plot is moving a Little too fast due to not having the description of surroundings and how the characters feel throughout the story, also the characters need more focus, I felt hard to sympathize with Emma or Belle. Usually, the story surrounds the main character but in your book is only not focusing on who they are as individuals, but also to me they're leaving me with the wrong impression, like to me Emma seems really needy, and Belle seems too self-centered, because all I get to see about them is their dialogue and a slight mentioning of their feelings, you need to go a litter deeper to show their true self.

-->Presence as Writer
I like the fact you add authors note as an introduction and are so open to your reader's feedback, it shows that you take your book seriously.

-->My view as a reader...
The book cover and description aren't enough to make me looking forward to read it, and your chapters aren't well detailed and neither are your characters.
But the thing is...you have everything to make it work, you picked a really big and tough subjects to write about, like loss and suicide, so you have this huge room to make this work amazingly, but I would strongly suggest you find an editor that could help you into developing your work, as well as your description. I would Also suggest you to search for a better option as a book cover.
I wish you the best of luck.

I would rate this book 2.5/5
