Review of The Not-So-Sweet Escape

[CLOSED] Bee's Review & Advertisement Shop

Title (4/5)

Okay so your title was extremely fitting for the story, since she escapes and it doesn’t seem to be the perfect sweet escape! But I knocked off one point because it didn't really catch my attention.

Description/Foreword (10/10)

AMAZING! I mean it definitely made me want to at least read the first chapter, the way you wrote it with repetitive words, left it hammered into my mind. Also you used really powerful words like family, hell, and impossible. That is why you got a perfect score for this category.

Characters (8/10)

I really wanted to give you a perfect score but I had to knock off a few points because one Dongwoo's character doesn't seem to fit your description that you gave him also the girl character did not seem to be as emotionless as you wrote she was in the description. But besides those two little mistakes I loved your characters it was a bit annoying that your girl character was a bit of Mary-sue, but at the same time she wasn't. She definitely developed throughout the story from being very head strong and clever to a more emotion filled girl who was confused and suddenly became innocent, but you didn't completely ruin her personality and completely change it. You still let her keep most of her old personality. You even made the minor characters have a huge impact on everything that happens throughout the story and you didn't forget about Dongjun!

Plot (20/20)

Oh my God, don't even get me started! I saw that it was a vampire story and just wanted to run and hide, but as soon as I read the first chapter and foreword I was hooked. The plot seemed a little bit like someone else's story but one idea was similar everything else was original, it was amazing. Every time you thought things were going smooth, out of nowhere a huge, major twist would happen throwing all that out the window. The cliffhanger in chapter 19 is making me want to explode. I was very impressed, I and I'm sure other readers could tell you thought and planned the whole plot out instead of going in blindly and I think it is brilliant, absolutely brilliant!

Grammar (13/20)

Though you had little to no spelling mistakes, you sadly had tons of sentence structure issues. But they were actually very minor things that were barely noticeable; they how ever made it harder to read it flawlessly. You were missing commas; some of your 'sentences' were not sentences. But I was very impressed with your very large vocabulary, you didn't use simple or over used words and if you did you added something more to it.

flow (8/10)

The flow was not bad because of all your grammar mistakes, but the good spelling and the fact that most of it was written correctly protected you from getting a lower score.

Visual Things (15/15)

The poster was absolutely beautiful, so kudos to the designer! The writing was the perfect size you italicize and bolded words that fit and didn't over do it. Also the poster and background did not clash and they were not overwhelming at all!

Ending (--/10)

The story had no ending, so this was not counted for your final score.

Extra Comments:

I have nothing but good to say, I mean wow, just wow! The whole thing entranced me and I just started reading it an hour ago and couldn't stop reading it with in that short period of time. It was just amazing your description made it so realistic and life like. I got angry when she got hurt and felt completely flustered when she felt flustered. It was spectacular and I can't wait to read more of it, i might even up vote it! the whole story was perfect except for the minor sentence structure mistakes, but besides that it was basically perfect! I truly wish you luck with this story and hope it gets featured!

Total (78/90)

Chapter 31: I'm here! ^^ First of all, I am so happy to read about your comment on the title because personally, i think a title is very important to capture a reader's attention and I am so glad you gave that a full mark ^^ And the description, if it wasnt for the ending, i bet i would get a higher marks right? After you pointed about the ending, i tried reading the description again and you were right. It is somewhat too cheesy and spoil the mood, my bad, wuuu~ >< I won't comment on each of it because that's just too long LOL but overall, I am happy with your review <3 I have weaknesses on grammar [always] and I need to expand my vocab and improve my sentence structure too

"Like I said before I honestly have no clue how you managed to make such an unoriginal idea somehow original and unique. I loved that a whole lot. " <--- you have no idea how much you motivate me with this. I am so happy to read that, thank you! ;___; <3

Chapter 33: Saw the ad xD Thank you very much. But I would like to add in a few additional things regarding my request :) I would like some words in the curse quote ("Hark! Hark now! ... a happy ending.") to be bolded if possible. The words are: regret, time, punishment, find, love, not, happy ending. If you can please bold them xD Thanks~

Mark my words, insolent creatures.
O how I regret thine existences; marry I doth.
Aye, time canst not be reverted verily.
Hereby the punishment thou deserve.
For lifetimes thou shalt find each other,
Love one another,
But I,
I wilt make sure thou wilt not have
A happy ending. "

Story title: The MatchMaker

Story link:http://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/665333/the-matchmaker-arrangedmarriage-fluff-romance-you-exo-luhan-baekhyun

Summary:To love is a crime, a crime that is paid with the death penalty.

This is the law of society. However there is the other option. You can love the one whom society matches you with through the system simply called the "MatchMaker" where there are absolutely "no flaws" and "you'll love your match."

The "MatchMaker" is a system where all 18 year olds enter. They "match" you up with another girl/boy and you just simply get engaged, married, and have children.

But Byun Baekhyun and Cho Minji are lovers.

Secret lovers. Only a few know that secret. But still...

Secrets, especially one as dangerous as that, are meant to be kept secrets, because if spilled, you'll be lying in your grave.

But the "MatchMaker" had other plans for the secret lovers.

Genre: Romance

Characters: Cho Minji(OC)

Rated (yes/no) yes

Oneshot (yes/no) no

I'm still working on it T^T
