“Vengeful Romance”

By: Muasbby.

 

 

Reviewer: Gtoprenaissance.

 

 

 

1-Title: “Vengeful Romance” is not a bad title, it’s not necessarily imaginative or creative yet it’s dramatically engaging in the aspect of promising the readers a roller coaster of diverse events. It showcases a hint of conflict, love, and possibly a promising resolution.

 

Rating: [8/10].

 

 

 

2-Description/Foreword: The description is of suitable length but I think it may contain some grammatical and syntactical issues, so you can just proofread it later. As for the foreword portion of your story, it’s really long and when you choose to quote a conversation or dialogue from your story the audience will most likely be confused and might not understand it thoroughly. The cover is really beautiful by the way!

 

Rating: [8/10].

 

 

 

3-Plot: Right, so the beginning is usually the field for subtle environmental illustration and prominent introduction for each character. The introduction to your story is good so far, but it’s rushed; the characters are introduced as a clump which will evidently lower the value of each character. You can take things slower by explaining every event further based on importance and relevance, for example, Mani’s little brother has a colourful background of illnesses and injuries that should be brought to attention instead of the conversation about the twins’ academic achievements.

The general layout of the story is fine but the problem lays in the overly-detailed description of everything. There’s no need to vocalise every thought that comes across every character’s mind. Instead of writing “’Hey,’ Yongguk asked, poking her thigh”, you could say “Greeted the older man, playfully nudging her thigh as he sought after her undivided attention”. There’s no physical or literary need for you as an author to vocalise every thought and notion, this is why your story is ten chapters long with 4k words in every one of them.

I’m not entirely sure which character is main and which is minor, I don’t think it’s a good idea to grant a minor character the POV, at least not this early. Why does the character of Daehyun deserve its own POV? As the audience, we don’t know anything about this character so you have to introduce the character before awarding it with its own POV.

Does your story serve different timelines? Does it participate in the idea of chronological interruptions? It’s very confusing because of the number of characters that keep flocking into the story every paragraph. Sorry, I’m just a bit frustrated because the story is clearly beautiful but I cannot understand most of these events because of the characters. As soon as you start working on the characters, your story will come together and will appear more intact, so don’t stress yourself over it.

The story won’t go anywhere if you keep changing POVs and introduce characters during every dialogue. You need, no actually, you have to fix this issue, it’s critical. By removing unhelpful characters, the story will start taking off because of the lighter weight, like an aeroplane!

There are little fruitful potentials with the climatic turn-of-events or plot-twist, if you do have an issue regarding a roma

Chapter 81: Hello, thank you so much for taking your time in writing this very thorough review! There is a lot that I can learn from this that would help me improve not only for this particular story but for my writing in general as well. The discussion on the story's setting and how to deliver the characters' situation and thoughts to the reader are pointers that I needed to hear. Thank you for also giving me clear examples of those pointers. I'll read the review over and over, and make sure I improve from this.

I've credited the shop in my foreword already. Again, thank you and take care!

Chapter 78: i love how you spelled out every detail on where the goods and bads in the story as well as what kind of improvements i can work on. well, especially on the characterization and the plot! and yeah i never thought i didn't do proper character introduction since im too focused on the haha and when you mentioned that i did tend to leave the rest of imaginations to the readers! i'm actually very excited to include more of what's happening in the surrounding of the characters and to show more of their personalities and develop their characterization (this is going to be tough since i think my skills are lacked in this area)

i really appreciate the amount of information written in this thorough, super insightful and honest review on my story! thank you so much for taking the time to read and give me feedback!😍

Thank you! I read the whole thing and I took notes on how I can further improve my writing. There's a lot to learn and I'm glad I requested from you. I didn't even know what a Character Cluster is! I would love to talk more about writing with you, but I do not know if you're busy or not. This is just a hobby of mine that I picked up and am trying to hone (A measly med student here). I would be interested in what I could further do to improve (except read books 'cause I do that daily). On another note, my favorite book is called "The Lies of Locke Lamora". What's yours? Agh, I've been rambling. I better stop. Once again, I thank you for your work, and as per the rules, I gave credits in the Foreword.

Happy Holidays!
