Hello, Bookscratch!

Great book you've got there!

At the start, I found it quite interesting that you were talking about the flashback and how you described how Ruqaya was feeling. Guessing what was real and what was fiction. That's a great start! In the second part, when Ruqaya and her friends were playing truth or dare, you also added how Ruqaya felt and stuff. You made me hang on to what the big secret Esraa, Tamara, and Ruqaya had. What was it that Ruqaya couldn't tell? What was it? And suddenly Ruqaya got tensed. What for? I wondered. You made me want to know what Ruqaya was hiding. It was a great job and it was fantastic. And Ruqaya decided to think the whole thing was just a prank instead. 

Then, you moved on to say about the bullies and how Ruqaya felt. She felt poisoned because she let it. I think it was a good punchline at that point in the story. Ruqaya felt she was different. She felt like nobody accepted who she was. Nobody. So you explained that quite a bit and I also felt that I could relate a bit and soon, Adam, entered. You said Ruqaya was being suspicious about him and kept a distance from him and other things. But he seemed like a pretty genuine guy in the story, the way you described him. So why was Ruqaya scared of him? Ah, that made me read at x2 speed.

And Ruqaya's day turned out to be a mess, I figured out that with Ruqaya lying to her mom about it. Then Ruqaya had to move to a new place and many things happened at her school. Grammar, punctuation, and editing were done well, 'cuz I didn't spot any errors.

But I thought maybe you could connect the dots in the story at some places  and elaborate more to ensure readers have a better understanding of what's going on:)

Overall, I felt that you did a good job and congrats on this book!

Best Regards,
