1st Place:

"The Dark Places" by authorwriterbard

Score: 94/100

Review: From the beginning, I was very impressed with this novel. The Dark Places takes you on a wild ride from the start. The blurb could mention Madeline (his first girlfriend) a bit more. The cover is beautiful and ties in the themes of Seth becoming darker with time. The title matches the themes of Seth's inner struggles. The Dark Places is beautifully written. The author has taken great care with the plot, pacing, and character development. There were little to no errors in this novel. The Dark Places is fresh. It is not cliche. It is raw and real. It grabs the reader's attention. The attention to deal and emotion is spot on. The author has painted the setting of every scene flawlessly. I can picture the environment for every scene in my mind. The characters are relatable. I found myself carrying about Seth and identifying with the way he made decisions. This book's underlying message is clear from the beginning. Seth's personal goals to overcome his darker side are made clear through the book. The Dark Places was a wonderful novel to read. It was full of amazing characters. I want to know more about Seth. Congratulations. 

2nd Place:

"Fight of Desire" by Anne_Hedonia 

Score: 93/100

Review: The cover is interesting. I think it could use some more flair, it's a little blurry which could be seen as unprofessional. The idea itself I love, but it's not eye-catching you know? I absolutely love the title, it really goes with the book. Most stories talking about a girl boxer are called "The girl boxer" which makes it way too common. This one is unique, because not only is she fighting but she's fighting with cause, and that's what makes it special. I absolutely love the plot, and after reading a couple of chapters I saw no plot holes. Anne was writing with confidence, and that's what I love to see in books. It is a unique story, and even though there is a popular guy, he's kinda shy, and he's known and everyone wants to be his friend, very interesting perspective. I also love how the main MC really is independent of not only herself but of a little sister as well. Use of language was really good, my only issue is that sometimes before dialogue there would be two spaces, which isn't necessary. 

The plot definitely has a fresh approach. Very original as we do not see a lot of strong main girl protagonists and we all love seeing that type of thing here on Wattpad. Eve is very dependable and you can tell she's been through a lot. The writing style is totally my type. I love reading simple books with snarky remarks and great description, and that's what happens in this book. Anne knows how to describe even the littlest of things, and knows when to do it. She doesn't overdo it, something most writers do. Though this character is commonly able to be relatable, I already feel a special connection with not only Eve but Renan too. I know how it feels like to be known and be used. Anne really represents the characters' thoughts well. I haven't read the full book, so I am not entirely sure what the message is, but I think it is not to judge a book by its cover. As Reenan said in the third chapter if I am correct "this girl is full of surprises." and that's what the message is.

3rd Place:

"Saboteur" by awesomexgurl 

Score: 88/100

The book cover is simple and elegant. The blurb is the perfect size and tells us what to expect from this novel. The title tells us about the book. It also matches the blurb nicely. The plot is believable. I know what it's like to be torn between being friends with an ex and being more again. Well done. This book has little to no errors grammatically. This story is unique. I like the relationship between all the characters. I like the switching/back and forth of the various narrators. The author has done a nice job of conveying the emotions of the various characters. The timing of the story is paced well. The descriptions do a nice job bringing the setting to the readers. The characterization is realistic. The relationship between Julie and Javi is one every girl in high school can relate to. The tension between Harper and Julie is understandable and real. The message for this story is well told and clear in the blurb. 

Runners-up:

4. "Scars of Mystery and Fortitude" by Authoresta 

Score: 86.5/100

The story could use some work but overall it's great with lots of potentials. Maybe some touch-ups to the cover, editing, and you will be set. I enjoyed the little bit I had to read, and it was good. That main character is a badass at such a young age, and your writing skills are amazing. I hope to see you grow! (The actual review is way more detailed. PM if you want me to send you it.)

5. "Unerased Memories" by Aussie-merry 

Score: 85/100

Review: The Characterization is amazing. The dialogues were off in some places but this was the first time I read about the protagonist having dwarfism on Wattpad, so props to you for bringing up this issue. The characterization of Nicholas is really unique - he's not the same monotonous bad boy I've been seeing for so long but at the same time he doesn't come from the Wattpad perfection factory. The only suggestion I might have is to look into the blurb and work on it, make it more interesting. Maybe add some excerpts from the story or a really captivating conversation? Same goes for the cover - make it a bit more in theme with the story. The grammar and Punctuation - both are good, not absolutely perfect but somewhere in that zone. I'd say if you maybe give the chapters a do-over once or twice, they might even reach perfection.

6. "Stuck On Earth" by CarrieMelandez 

Score: 85/100

Review: I don't feel that this book belongs in this genre. It's more apt for horror or general fiction, and the cover gives me vibes of the same. The blurb, in my opinion, is a little too intense. It doesn't capture the essence of the book perfectly. Furthermore, the author has introduced a number of characters straight away in the first chapter which can be hard to follow. The way she has introduced the characters "Hannah was your average..." is something used monotonously by a number of authors. So the first chapter comes off as confusing and may put off some readers. Barring that, the plot is amazing. Totally original and well-paced, considering the book is a novella. I think it'd do very well if only it were placed in the correct genre.

7. "Love Lies" by BOOK-LOVER-2000

Score: 85/100

Review: The book cover doesn't seem to have anything to do with the story. It's confusing. The blurb is decent. It needs to be edited. The title echoes what the blurb says, however, it's unclear what it has to do with the plot of the book. The plot is well developed. I was engaged the whole time I read Love Lies. The narration is believable and gripping. This book has lots of typos. At times the grammar distracts from an amazing plot. Chapter three appears to be one huge stand-alone paragraph. I would suggest using Grammarly, spell check, a beta editor, or the Hemingway app to shape your craft. I love this story and the realism it has. I love how the first-person narrative gives a voice to an innocent character. I love that this story shows how the world can be cruel to everyone including the young. The author has done a beautiful job of taking us on an emotional journey. The first chapter feels like an autobiography. The characterization is realistic. The grieve Aurora expresses is relatable. We have all lost a loved one. We have all been forced to greet death and befriend him. This part of the story felt raw and real for me because I have recently lost my own grandmother. The message for this story is as clear as glass from chapter one. 

8. "June's Blues" by A-BrooklynTM 

Score: 83/100

Review: When I am finished judging, I am going to continue reading the book. It's actually interesting and I enjoy it. Maybe a small change to the cover and title, but other than that I think it's a really good story. (The review is way more detailed. PM if you want me to send you it.)

9. "Breaking the Bad Boy's Heart" by tumblrgirl736 

Score: 83/100

Review: The book cover is lovely and fits this genre perfectly. The blurb is a bit long and could be shortened. The title tells us about the book. However, with so many Bad Boy titles on Wattpad, you might want to consider another name like Breaking Aiden Black's Heart. The plot is unique. From the beginning, this story pulls you in. It is well written and hilarious. I enjoyed getting to know Mia and her character. I love it when she freaks out, and we hear her thoughts. This book has little to no errors. This story is unique. There are stories like it, but this is a better version. It flows well, and the reader cares about the characters immediately. The writing style is unique. The author has done a nice job of helping us feel what Mia feels. The writing flows well, and the timing is perfect. I love the referencing to Fault in Our Stars. The pacing and timeline fit the story. The characterization is on point. It is easy to tell the characters apart. The descriptions of the characters are helpful to the reader. However, the message for this book is a bit unclear.

10. "Dare to dream" by dontbotherme15595 

Score: 83/100

Review: The book was overall quite nice. Very few grammar errors, good flow, good pacing etcetera. In the blurb, I'd recommend using the full form of VSD since some people might not be familiar with it. Also, the story feels like the protagonist is narrating it as a series of events like she's giving an introduction to a support group. So I'd suggest the author tries to change that.
