howells criticism and fiction

This book's creation was for the purpose of proofreading and critiquing other people's novels on Webnovel.com Through this book, I'll be indirectly showcasing several books as I go in-depth with each chapter pointing out any inconsistencies, basic spelling/grammar errors and typos, and anything that doesn't make sense. I already predict that the comment section will probably get filled with active discussion over these books. Note, if you came here for a novel, tough luck. There is no novel, this is only for editing/proofreading/revisions/critique. Though if you were looking for something to read and some of these reviews were worth it, then good for you. :D

In a small town called Salem, in which diversity is pretty much a normal thing. Where gossips and rumors spread faster than a virus, and where gang fights are pretty much a daily affair to them. So all in all, this is just your typical town. Daniel Mendez has been living here for the past 13 years. Living in a small town where most people knew you, can be quite annoying and taxing. When all really he ever wanted was food, coffee, and his much-needed sleep. But with the constant buzzing of voices that he can always hear what others don't and the gang fights he always gets involved into, as well as the bullies. Combine with his doting father, and his eccentric best friend's antics. Peace is almost an impossible task. But still, it was a good life. Well, as good as he can get. So when unknown being showed up on his doorsteps uninvited, he knew that he fucked up. * * * * * "You. Are. Mine." Clark growled darkly as he stared down at me coldly. My heart skips a beat as I looked at him with eyes wide open, like a deer caught in the headlights. "Before you were even born, you were already mine, Mendez." I can feel my knees going weak from fear as I tried to edge away from him when suddenly he throws his arms, caging me between his huge form. His huge figure looming before me. I nervously gulped, trying so hard to ease my beating heart. I can feel my pulse accelerating at a very abnormal rate, making me feel light-headed. My heart almost jumped out of my mouth when his face suddenly inched towards mine, his eyes were crinkled in cold amusement, his lips stretched in a smirk. "And I don't like sharing what's mine to others."

​In a land torn apart by endless wars between fractured provinces, survival belongs only to those willing to abandon their humanity. ​Renji Kurosawa is not a hero. ​Raised among mercenaries, shaped by violence, and hardened by loss, he becomes a weapon feared on every battlefield. To the world, he is nothing more than a “war dog” that leaves silence and corpses behind. ​But everything begins to change when he crosses paths with a noble swordsman whose vision of unity challenges the very meaning of strength—and a wandering monk who believes the sword itself is the source of human suffering. ​As alliances shift, cities burn, and betrayal becomes law, Renji is forced into a journey that is no longer about survival—but understanding what it truly means to be human. ​Because in this world… Even victory leaves nothing but the echo of crows crying over the dead.

Swimming is the perfect, low-impact choice for a whole body workout. The rewards aren’t only a swimmer’s body -- a perfect V-shaped torso, muscular shoulders, and zero body fat -- but also the cavalcade of other sculpted bodies you can admire as they climb out of the pool.<br><br>In the changing rooms, you can admire perfect male bodies unobstructed by swimsuits. Clean lines, sculpted muscles, cocks hanging free. Proud men stroll naked to and from the showers, drying themselves openly for all to see.<br><br>In the showers themselves, beneath the warm rush of water, you can watch other men washing their hair, torsos, and parts further down.

Much more.
