◖Basics :: 11 | 20◗

⚘ Cover :: 02 | 05

◍ The picture used, isn't of good quality, does not suit the theme and the picture is also blurry and not a very captivating one. It does not match the storyline, it's just a man caging a woman, which i must say, should be replaced with something more matching. The font used isn't going with the theme too, used something curvy, bold and something that looks standard too, like, 'pacifo', a subtitle as well as the author's name is missing from the cover. It must be added. It might not attract readers.

⚘ Synopsis :: 03 | 05

◍ The blurb is not very long or very short, however a few lines, two or three, to be exact, must be added. A scene, which is a compulsory factor for a blurb to be perfect, is missing. A scene needs to be added, the blurb is interesting and will have people wanna read the story. Make sure that the scene you add in is not giving off the plot twist and try to make a scene with a cliffhanger, it must've a dialogue or two and also it doesn't need to be a long scene. It doesn't give off much of the plot but only as much needed for it to attract readers.

⚘ Title :: 03 | 05

◍ The word, 'Tethered' is specifically for animals, so in whatever sense you're using it here, you must add that in your synopsis. The title is interesting, but it will make people think that this book is science fiction, when it is a fantasy genre. The title matches the story theme overall, as it refers to all the people of that world and not only the main leads. I liked the title. It might as well make people wanna read it.

⚘ Execution :: 03 | 05

◍ The execution overall is good, the cover is something that specifically needs to be worked on. The plot and everything else seems fine to me, the details however need to be described more and in a well elaborated manner. The opening of the book is fine, just as a book like this should have.

○ Plot & Creativity :: 7.5 | 10

◍ The plot is well structured and written nicely. It's a well built plot, however I must say it's very much predictable as well as very fast paced. The concept of the fated people is something that i came across in books of wolves, alphas and omegas and all, but this got it into humans which is a unique concept. The plot is creative and the tattoo thing is really not seen in any kind of book. The plot is very good and interesting, it will keep readers hooked. However, a few cliffhangers and plot twists need to be added.

○ Writing Style :: 08 | 10

◍ The writing style is nice and I must say, the author really knows how to invite and capture people in the world of hers. Even so, the emotions and a few more things aren't well written. It's a captivating writing style but it isn't detailed, it's very comprehensive. It needs to more detailed, so people can imagine it without any sort of problem. I liked the writing style, just making it more detailed with the same professionalism and enthusiasm would do.

◖Grammar & Vocabulary :: 18.5 | 20◗

⚘ Grammar :: 09 | 10

◍ There are very few grammatical errors, also they're negligible because they do not change the sense or the meaning of the story. So it's really good, and I hope you continue the same and don't make errors that change the sense of the story. There are no typos, I noticed and very very few like rarely any grammatical error in the book, which is pretty impressive.

⚘ Vocabulary :: 9.5 | 10

◍ The vocabulary used is not very high, and could be understood easily. It is simple yet looks standard and is effective. The vocabulary combining with the writing style makes it easier to understand and read. The good vocabulary is something that impressed me. People will understand it and it doesn't make the book monotonous. So it will not make people leave the book because of the high vocabulary.

○ Emotions Conveyed :: 05 | 10

◍ The emotions aren't well defined and detailed. It needs to be elaborated more, so people can feel it. It feels like something missing from in between the scenes where you've to describe the emotions. The book feels a little empty because you've not made the emotions detailed, people can't feel it or imagine it. The emotions don't feel lively. The emotions need to be elaborated and detailed more than it is done so it could be imagined as you did. Add in more adjectives for the emotions. The words used for emotions should give of that feel but it doesn't do that, you need to describe more.

○ Character Development :: 08 | 10

◍ The characters are well defined and built. They're interesting and will make people wanna know more about them. They seem to be interesting, however, they should be more descriptive than they're, their physical appearance should be described more in the starting chapters. The characters are well written and nicely mannered, suiting their role and all are given a role and they develop well, though they are more predicting and fast moving than they should be, so as to maintain some suspense.
