Very Alluring!

This piece was crafted stunningly. I loved that the story had me on edge the entire time, and I was actually spooked out by certain paranormal elements in some chapters. The writer paid just enough detail to emotions and surroundings. It was all really alluring for me.

However, I'm not a huge fan of the story description, and I didn't fully understand the plotline, at times it was rather confusing especially the concept of the 'mirror'. Of course, this is merely my point of view as reader.

Overall, it was a great read and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone interested in the horror genre. The writer is exceptionally talented!

I wish the writer all the best.

The Questing Knave Affair: A gripping tale

Every story has its beginning. This one started of with interesting descriptions which breathed life to its lead character and the general setting. It was somewhat mysterious and it urged me to keep turning pages. The plot continued to thicken and there's more that needs unveiling. It definitely a story I'm determined to follow closely.

Sentence structuring was great, the grammar almost perfect (although I don't really like the use of parenthesis).

I think the writer does a splendid job and I will gladly recommend this story to any avid reader out there!

Love,
Stacey Martins.

Sweet, but needs an investment of time...

Writing within the limits of a short story isn't easy at all. But somehow the writer managed to pull it off and bring out a sweet love story. It needs attention though. Sentence structure, dialogue, punctuation and so the list goes on. These writing errors can disrupt flow and divert the attention of the reader from the story so editing should be a priority.

After the writer invests a bit of time ( by editing), I would gladly recommend this story to short story lovers.

Good luck to the writer.

Wishing you all the success

Fast Paced....

When giving a review, I like to touch on the positives and negatives so that the writer can gain a balanced perspective of their work. Okay, let me get into this.

Frankly, I appreciate the writer's efforts in trying to tell a heart-warming love story with a touch of mystery, it's a good duo. I also think the plotline is good in itself and readers may actually draw lessons from this story.

However, grammatical errors lingered everywhere and they were just hard to move past. The story is also going a little too fast for my liking, and I just feel like there were so many cliches in there. Well, these are just my own humble opinions and the writer is free to ignore or consider them.

I really appreciate your efforts writer and with a little extra work put in, I believe that this story will touch hearts. I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors

With all the affection,
Stacey.

Immaculate...

Honestly, there isn't a valid reason for me not to give this book a five star rating. I mean, the writing was immaculate if not perfect; the grammar and punctuation, flawless, the descriptions were vivid enough and the characters were all well developed. The air of mystery in this book keeps one on edge too. Really, it's great stuff I must admit.

However, as much as I liked it, I sort of wanted to be spooked out completely (considering the genre), but I didn't get much of those feelings (heart racing, breathing escalating by ten fold, sweaty palms or just scared in general if you get what I mean)
I also feel that the chapters are a little too short (like it literally took me a few minutes to read 3 chapters). Of course this is just my simple opinion, and you could ignore it.

Overall, I think this story is brilliant and the writer should feel really proud hence my rating being five.

Thanks for the recommendation. Definitely staying on my reading list.

Love, Stacey.

Roze: A suspenseful crime thriller.

Thrillers are action-packed, suspenseful and fast-paced stories with heart-throbbing twists and high stakes. I believe this story has most of these fundamental aspects. The writer has built this story from a good literary framework which makes the plotline quite intriguing and like most thrillers this story makes us as readers ask questions ...; Who killed Mia? How many people were involved? Could the enemy be closer than Sky imagines?

The suspense really keeps you on the edge of your seat, biting off fingernails and all. However, I was able to identify technical issues here and there. I think the writer should look out for simple things like punctuation and sentence structure. I also believe the writer could emphasize more on word imagery through strong descriptions which may make the characters feel more realistic ( It's never a bad idea to go back to initial chapters and add some extra descriptive details). Also it would be nice to see the story build up to the climax with many unexpected twists 😁.

All in all, I think this story is worth a reader's time and attention.

So dear author please keep up with the regular updates and don't allow your confidence and imagination to be bogged down by anything..

Alright, that's it from me.

Love, Stacey.

Sensational!

Honestly speaking, this was one of the best stories I've read on Inkitt. Like seriously author, you HAVE to believe me when I say that. I do think the story is too short though and the chapter lengths could be slightly longer. The book has a great plotline and because of that I feel like there should be a sequel to it. There were definitely some technical issues ( starting from chapter 4 ), but editing and proofreading can fix those minor problems.

In a nutshell, the book is a good recommendation to readers out there in search of a good storyline and a lesson. The lesson in this story was clear; 'Fame and beauty isn't everything plus be careful for what you wish for; you might just get it.)

Okay, I'm out..✌

Love, Stacey.

Broken Princess: An unbroken plot!

Well, I believe this story has a great plotline with the potential of delivering both a passionate love story and an action-packed one. However, as I was reading I couldn't read past the various technical errors in the grammatical construction of the story. Perfection isn't necessarily the goal, but proofreading helps a writer identify these basic errors in the story which might hamper a reader's interest. Please look out for punctuation, sentence structure and word imagery; these things matter a lot. Lastly, I feel like the work contract Aiden drew up for Ella should be reviewed again. It is simply impossible to present such conditions to an employee without facing prosecution by law, no employer owns their worker and they definitely can't charge someone one million dollars if they want to quit (after all circumstances change and not everyone carries one million dollars in their pockets). Other more sensible terms and conditions could be applied.

Overall, I think it's worth giving this story a read, because the plot is rich and potentially twisty.

Love, Stacey.

Plot is phenomenal!

When I first read the story description, I thought 'Wow, this is well thought of', I mean I envisioned two literary geniuses with completely different tastes in literature being united by the art of inking a love story. This story seemed promising, and it didn't disappoint when I actually began devouring it page by page. The plot is rich and the characters are quite amusing, however I wished the arguments between Emma and Zac were more literary based, like it would be cool if Emma was to defend the concept of love (mentioned in Chapter 4 I think) using solid literary examples (i.e from Shakespeare, Jane Austen and others). I also wished there was more clarification on their respective job roles and careers basically, plus a basic description of Emma and her physical traits. Grammatical issues can be improved too.

Of course, all in all the novel was good and helpless romantics like myself ( and Emma *wink*) will enjoy reading this creative piece. Keep up the superb work author! 😊

Alright, that's it from me

Love, Stacey.

Long, but worth it!

Wow, so it takes quite a while to finish this book, but gosh is it worth every second. I like the way you pay attention to detail, this technique in particular made it easier for me to envision the characters vividly, you know; feel what they feel, see what they see. Some parts were quite surreal in that sense. The ending broke my heart though, for a moment I wished I could just jump right into the book and make Ace understand that he can't just walk way from the light in his life (that is Cher) like that.

Anyway,

Sequel will be awesome, I can already tell that.

Good job Nour. It was a good story.

Love, Stacey.

Complex!

Quite honestly, the genre of fantasy is a little out of my comfort zone, but I decided to give this story a go and well, it was definitely complex and mind-boggling, even creepy at times. The word imagery used in chapters one through three where especially eye-catching to me. Also some parts were very cringe-worthy. In nutshell, this book definitely paints a vivid picture of the fantasy world and avid fantasy readers should enjoy this. Great creation!

Great storyline!

The suspense and mystery in this book undoubtedly pulls you in and has you turning pages like you breathe and live on the story. I love how natural the female lead is portrayed and I created this really strange bond will Daniel. The author essentially keeps it simple, and that actually works out.

However, technical errors weren't invisible, but proofreading and concise checks through your work will rectify that in a wink.

Thanks for the good read and I believe other lovers of suspense and a good love tale will thoroughly appreciate this literary work.

Brilliant.

With all the love,
Stacey Martins.
