Pretty good
"This book is interesting and I like it. The writing style could be stronger but that gets better with time and honing a craft. I could see this turning out to be something truly magical if taken in by the right editor. Overall, I enjoyed it. Not too many grammar mistakes, but the ones I found were slightly odd to say the least. But seriously, great read."
Interesting read...
"I do like a good wolf book and yours doesn't disappoint! You have a really great way of describing your characters - it's clear and easily visualised. The same can be said with the action, it's interesting and you can keep the pace going very well. You have beautifully laid out your paragraphs, shorter ones work really well with your story. I love the chapter names! The only major thing I find that could be worked on is the dialog. There are times when it feels slightly robotic and 2D. However, this improves a lot from chapter 3. From that point, it's a lot easier to read. There are the odd grammar mistakes but nothing too major and can easily be sorted. Otherwise, a really fantastic book and I look forward to reading more!"
Potential But Needs Fleshing Out
" Blood Moon follows an Alpha wolf named Sara for short. The book is written from her point of view giving us insight to her thoughts. Currently, the story is centered around her trying to save her friends from vampires that have infiltrated her area. These beings want Sara to find a wolf they've been looking for. While the plot has potential, the story itself seems rushed. As a reader, I felt like I was missing descriptions of key elements that would make for a more cohesive story outline. In the second chapter, the main plot seemed to be Sara being bribed into finding a rogue wolf, but then we see Sara murdering a teenage boy, having the rogue wolf come to her apartment, getting bitten by a vampire, and more. We're still not entirely sure what the rogue wolf said to Sara in her apartment, just that she had turned her. I feel like there was more to that conversation we should know about. The story seems to have a lot of side plots that are making the flow choppy. While side plots are okay, it shouldn't distract from the main points of the story. I almost feel like each chapter is a short story by itself. The main character Sara is highly impulsive and seems to make poor decisions. It's a little unclear how she became the alpha when it looks like the only redeeming quality she has is being able to fight. This isn't a bad thing, but it makes it hard for me, personally, to relate to her. Even when she says she cares about her pack members, it's hard to see. Maybe the author can write in more of a connection between them so it's not as forgettable or left to the way side. I do think the author is trying to set up a romance between Calyx and Sara. Everyone loves a romance, but the slow-burn thing isn't exactly happening for me. It seems a little awkward and disjointed because there's not even description and detail to have me invested in their romance. I think adding more description to the scenery, the action, the plot, and character development and dialogue would help immensely. As for the grammar and writing style, there was a lot of repetition. AutoCrit is a great free tool that searches for repeated words. Grammarly and AutoCrit help with spelling and grammar as well. There were also instances where the protagonist broke the fourth wall, taking me out of the story. The book has potential, but write now the way it's written seems like a very rough outline of events with little detail. Add more, and I think it could be great. Keep writing!"
