oh my God I can't stand how this story is written. it's like it's being described in detail form a first person perspective. but at the same time being narrated to us from a third person perspective. reading a story that way feels like I'm back in kindergarten and the teachers reading the storybook to me and going look kids this is how the bunny jumps or whatever you get the point I think. it feels very demeaning to read this to my intelligence.

I think your standards are just a little to high. To me this is written like most books here in Webnovel and grammar isn't that bad

I really didn't see anything wrong with the way it was written. Could you possibly give an example? Just curious.

the story would describe things from a first person perspective. but then the author would replace I with he putting it into a third person perspective creating a conflicting perspective in the story. any native English speaker would find that very irritating to read. and no I'm not going to dig for a specific example from the story. because one I don't care that much and I'm too lazy. I also don't know how you didn't notice it because it's very hard not to notice that.

I mean i only read 2 chapters and dropped the story shortly afterwards as it didn't interest me in the slightest.

wasn't this style of third-person writing considered a "limited third-person" where It is written from the point of view of the character

Not if you swap between first and third due to getting the words wrong in the same sentence, it's like those novels that get he and she wrong where you end up scratching your head trying to figure out what gender the one speaking is when it changes every few words.

4 months late, but i felt i had to put it here: most books on webnovel are trash.
