Write Quality: basic with no flare or anything original in it - 3 stars Story development: slow where it shouldn't be and fast-paced where more could be included - 2 stars Character design: plain and basic with everyone cut from the same card - 2 stars World background: Basic fantasy - 3 stars Personal opinion: led around by the nose from the start by a child, the main character doesn't show the emotional intelligence of an adult who has had dozens of physical relationships and instead acts like pre pubescent boy who has seen a naked body for the first time.

May I ask how far you got into the book? I believe I explained that the book started slow; I don’t know what else to do on that front, as I wanted all character development, relationship building, and exposition to be done in the beginning rather than dropping huge bombs of info on people. As for the world itself; yes, it’s fantasy. I don’t know why that was a sore point? Kind of hard to reinvent the wheel, and I wanted to write about a typical fantasy world when I started the book; large medieval kingdoms and empires surrounding, or having, areas that created or ‘spawned’ monsters. May I also know how the characters are all the same? Are they not fleshed out enough or do they all fall under the same umbrella of being ‘evil’? I felt that they were all different enough to be there own characters? Was that not the case? What exactly was my problem with writing style? Repetitive? Bland? What ‘Flare’ am I missing? The main complaint; the personal opinion where you state she doesn’t act as like her ‘age’ and is embarrassed by bare skin, is explained in the book. Was that explanation not good enough? Thank you for the review, but I want to know why it was so low so that I can improve upon it in the future.

For some reason, I didn't see the entire comment, so I'll reply again. I don't dislike fantasy. The reason for 3 stars is that it was a basic fantasy filled with your dungeons, demons, empires, and magic power systems. There wasn't really anything unique that you added to push it to 4 stars or a totally new idea that would push it to 5. For the character. It not that they all seem evil but because they all speak and act the same. There is no distinction in position or education; there is no difference in their attitude to the main character, and there is no difference in their personalities. To me, they all feel like elderly mothers fussing over a child or snapping at ruffians on the street. For the writing, It is generally bland to read with no creative descriptions or actions, and repetitive actions like "followed her gaze" "looked in that direction." Things like that can either be said differently or not said at all. The 3 stars are for the high grammar and readability of your writing. For her embarrassment. Maybe I didn't read it well, but for me, it just felt like you made a problem out of nothing and over explained to the point that it just seem like she was genuinely embarrassed by looking at their bodies instead of an indecisiveness on whether it was appropriate or not for her to be there given her mental age. I re wrote my reply because you asked for genuine feedback and were so polite about it. So, I hope this helps.

NOOO my beautifully written comment, down the drain cause the page reloaded... Not writing that a second time so sorry if this sounds crude, but I'll just note it down. 1. Most of the characters before chapter 50 ARE mothers, so that point kind of feels.... meh. 2. The dungeons and monsters are 'basic', but coming up with a unique array of creatures for your story takes a lot more effort than most would care to think. 3. Children will act like their parents to some extent, but with all the characters feeling like they are the same, I have to disagree. They all act in their own different ways, and I can distinguish their traits for myself. 4. The magic system is far from 'basic' from what I've read in my life. It is a nice breath of fresh air, and while I have watched a movie with a similar concept with regards to runes and the magic tattoo's I've never hear of a magic system such as this one. It blends a bunch of ideas together that mix well. 5. Grammar mistakes are a product of not rereading the chapters post writing them/not having an editor or both. 6. The dialogue point is fair, but you can note differences between the main cast. I know I had a few other key points to mention but bleh.

Young master Damien's pet

"Who touched you?" he asked, his eyes brooding down at her and when she didn't answer, his voice thundered in the room, "WHO?" The butler who stood near the wall spoke shakily, "Sir, it was Mr. Reverale," Damien's face turned sour, his jaw ticking in anger he turned his face to the side where the butler stood behind. "Bring the man here." "N-now?" stuttered the butler. It was the time of night. Damien who hadn't broken his eye contact with the girl in front of him, pushed his hand against the wall which now rested beside his beautiful girl's head. Turning his body, he first looked at his butler who had his head bowed. With great courage, the butler came to meet his Master's eyes, "Do you have any other better time? Or should it be after I wring your neck?" Damien asked calmly tilting his head. Not a second later, the butler ran out of the room to return back with Mr. Reverale after twenty minutes. "Damien, are we having a late tea party?" Mr. Reverale came to greet but the master of the house had other plans. Spotting the knife that was stuck to the apple on the table, he reached for it to pull it out. Just as Mr. Reverale went to exchange a handshake with him, Damien took hold of his hand to place it on the table. In one swift movement as if he were chopping onions, he chopped the four fingers of the man off his hand making him yelp and cry in pain. "No one touches what is mine. I am sure this will remind you the next time you even think about touching her," sighed Damien as if he were tired of telling people to keep their dirty hands off his belongings. Meet Damien Quinn, a pureblooded vampire who is a complete narcissist, brash with his words and stingy even though he is rich who haggled when he bought a slave from the black market. On the other hand, meet Penelope who believes she is a 'guest' for a few days at the Quinn as she is intent on escaping from the odd vampire who needs therapy. ~ Discord: https://discord.gg/K63uVqN

The Alpha's Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger.

“I will not be defined as a ‘wolfless deviant’ I will not be a pawn in the 'games Alphas play' And I refuse to be mated to the stranger who crashed into my life and turned everything upside down… Only that might be my biggest challenge yet.” Those were the words Lyla chanted to herself as she left the annual werewolf gala, drenched in her sweat and her pheromones. Only days ago, she was a happy teenager existing in the human world – trying to get through college and go far away, forget everything she’s been through and start life afresh but now, she’s in the middle of the gala, sprawled on the ground with her desires in everyone’s face and Alpha Ramsey Kincaid – the Lycan leader of the White Moon Throne extending his hands towards her. If she takes it, she would bring dishonour to her family because she is in no state to be mingling with anyone, talk more of the Lycan leader who was out of her league and if she refuses, she risks being sent to the pack prison for not taking better care of herself during her heat - Yes, it was a crime for her to be without a wolf. But when he touches her, something inside her stirs… Desires? Yes! Powers hidden by the moon goddess? Yes! And maybe just maybe, the stirrings of her missing wolf whose voice can calm feral wolves and heal … Can she learn to trust this man whose mouth says a different thing and his hands speak another language or would she become a pawn – a piece of chess in the games ‘Alphas play’? One thing’s for certain- Lyla Woodlands was done being the pack’s little, dirty ‘wolfless deviant’. It’s time this wolfless wonder showed them what she’s made of. #Slow burn #Wispy old prophecies # Love Triangle - ML and FL best friend #Villian in love with FL Join my discord group: https://discord.gg/t2w9NgC4

As the goddess kneels before her, badly injured and helpless, the sounds of explosions echo outside, signaling the imminent victory of the alliance. Despite her immense power, the demon lord acknowledges the demon's overall weakness compared to humans and the Alliance.

Aware of the Alliance's intent to enslave the abyssal demon, the Demon Lord decides to cast a forbidden spell that will cost her life.

The resulting explosion creates a mushroom cloud, marking the end of the conflict and the start of a new era.
