Calling... AhnCheonsa
♨ Kimchi Dumplings Review Shop ♨ || Closed Hiatus ||
Title[5/5]: Okay, I love the title. I really, really do. But that might be because I am sooo into the story, haha. The title makes me guess about what the relation between the OC and the Tree is. I would definitely check this story out based on the title.
Poster(s)[5/5]: I love the poster on the Foreword, and I love how you put up posters in each chapter that have something to do with the chapter. Creative, and fun, and it keeps me guessing.
Description & Foreword [6/10]: I read the description a few times, trying to decide what I don't like about it. And I'll admit that I put off reading the story a day or two because I wasn't 'captured' after reading the description. Writing an effective description is no easy task, believe me, and I'm still not exactly sure why I wasn't fond of it. I think this is a matter of preference though. I'm sure plenty of readers loved the description! I just found myself wanting more, and less, at the same time. Less general information, more intrigue.
Plot and Characters[29/30]: Oh. my. god. I could go on forever and ever and ever about how much I love your story. I honestly love the heck out of it. I don't give two cents about how the EXO are aliens plot has been used; a story like yours is one in a million. You've taken your time to create a strong, balanced plot and realistic characters that readers actually get a feel for. Not only did I read your story, but I surfed through your comments as well. A lot of readers, myself included, have real feelings toward your characters. In my opinion, that is a massive accomplishment. It's tough to create a character that people feel attached to, or dislike, or whathaveyou. You have pulled it off very, very well. I only marked off a point because there are, of course, lot's of characters still blooming and developing, and the plot is common. None the less, I love what you have done and how you have twisted this plot and made it your own. I can't wait to see you get featured, because a story this interesting definitely deserves it.
Grammar/Spelling/Punctuation/Word Chose[24/25]: Your grammar and spelling and etc is fine. There are minimal mistakes, but they do exist here and there. What I admire about your work is that you always seem to be changing and improving it. And there was a line that I completely fell in love with.
The line was from chapter 13: He smiled at her as though he had a secret he'd never tell anyone. The fact that the ever-smiling phoenix could make such an expression was unexpected and captivating.
Your word choices are precise. You always seem to choose the perfect words, and I envy that in your writing.
Flow[9/10]: I think the pacing is spot on. You're moving just slow enough to allow for character development and just quick enough to keep us readers on our toes. You are also quite the master of cliffhangers, I've noticed. At points, it moves just a tad slow or a tad fast, but it's nothing I would worry about.
Overall Enjoyment[15/15]: No, I didn't enjoy your story. I loved your story, and will continue to read it religiously. It's a knockout. I look forward to your next update. I feel like this, being my first review for this shop, probably sounds too light and too full of praise. I was practically digging for reasons to dock points because I was afraid to score you so darn high, but I can't help it. This is one of the best fics I've read since I joined the site.
