NOTE: 21 chapters

(10/10) Title:When I re-read the title, I can feel there's so much more in it's meaning. It gives a longing feeling. It almost makes me feel like I can hear rain.

(9/10) Character: Since there wasn't much description about them at the beginning, I can't quite compare, but I liked how their pasts gradually unfolded as the story went along.

(9/10) Originality: A very original story with some cliche life changing events. The life changing events are very realistic and brings out the nature of real life.

(40/40) Storyline/Plot: Wow, that was a incredible plot. It flowed well and was very interesting. Him changing and his suffering, the whole story summed out well, and it was interesting to see the characters progress in the storyline.  I liked the different ideas in plot twisting and revealing secrets.

(20/25) Grammar/Errors: Your major issue is not re-reading. I am positive that if you did, you wouldn't have such prominent errors. An even larger problem is telling the difference between past and future tense. You mix them up and change the tense in the middle of the sentence. Sometimes the wrong words are used in the sentence. For example: "vogue memory" in chp. 14 should be "vague memory". I had also searched up vogue, and found that it meant a trend at a certain time. The rest was well enough. But remember to read over the sentences aloud to get a feel of common sense in them. Speaking may help you write better through your brain. You've been doing great so far, so keep it up!

(4/5) Overall Enjoyment: I loved the creativity in the descriptions and poems in the story. You have a great imagination and mind for analogies.

(92/100)

Bonus: Your questions and focuses for us:

One more thing. I know the Description and the forward are super long. But I planned this story to be like a Novella/Soap Opera.
It may seem like I'm giving away to much in the Description and The Forward, but as you realize you might notice that I haven't.
There are three main parts to this story:
The Past-Childhood
The Past- Orphans/Teens
The Present- The main setting, in which the forward revealed nothing.

I'm an interactive author, meaning I ask questions at the end and leave hints here and there for the readers to try there best at guessing. (They become more invested in my story this way, lol)

- Story title : Love Me Right
- Story link : http://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/976222/love-me-right-mpreg-hunhan-taoris-kaisoo-sulay-chanbaek-chenmin

-Genre : OT12, Angst, Mpreg, Fluff, Comedy, Growth, Friendship, Life, and "LEARNING TO LOVE"

- On-going | To be a long fic.

- Reviewer : KaihleeLo

- So The title of the fic is "Love Me Right", but it has nothing to do with the EXO song; even though some would just assume. The reason why I titled it 'Love Me Right' is because 6 of the main characters suffered in their childhood and eventually were orphaned. They don't know how to let themselves love. In particular, Luhan. As for the other 6 'Love' and 'Lust' are two different things.

- So before you read, I would like to point out, that the pacing of the story and the built up is exactly how I planned. I don't want to rush Romance because you don't 'fall in love' over night, and the characters need to mature. Also, there is a pattern to my chapters "The Past" chapters are essentially flashbacks. "The Present" is taking place now. For every 5 "The Present" chapters, it will be followed by 2 "The Past" chapters; Childhood/Teen years.

- I have a reader who offered to proofread my chapters since I had some typos, and I don't have the time to go back and fix them. "I always update between 12 am - 5 am, so that is the main reason". She is still editing the earlier chapters so please realize I am fixing the errors.


Oh gosh this was a lot. I'm sorry. I'm just really nervous, and I wanted to explain the above before you review.
