Review of Can U Smile?

[CLOSED] Bee's Review & Advertisement Shop

Title (3/5)

I feel the title was very fitting, it just didn't really catch my attention and I most likely would not have clicked on it.

Description/Foreword (5/10)

The Description and Foreword were not bad it's just I had trouble reading it smoothly, also the character descriptions were very hard to follow and understand what you were trying to say about the characters. But I won't point out the grammar, spelling and sentence accidents till the grammar and flow section. Also this is just my opinion I most likely would not have continued to read the story, mainly because I do not normally read stories like this.

Characters (8/10)

I think the characters were definitely good, but I think they developed way too fast! L.joe who you wanted to portray as a mean cold and heartless guy ended up caring about Chohee in like the fourth chapter, way faster then I was expecting it to be. But besides that they are not bad.

Plot (10/20)

I sadly do not think the plot was original I have seen multiple stories like this to be honest, the only reason I didn't give you a lower score was because it had some substance to it that kept me reading it. The problems that arose and seemed to happen a lot kind of made it a bit more interesting and not too repetitive, but like I said before I have seen TONS of stories with this plot. But it is definitely not bad.

Grammar (9/20)

I know you said English is not your first language, you had very good English for most of the story. But you mixed up tenses way too much and it made the whole thing very confusing for me to read. You also made up a couple of words that do not even exist in this world such as the word 'worster'. You also did not make certain words plural that needed to be plural. You often used awkward syntax too like in the foreword you wrote "I thought that he would say anything, but came out these words." It was very hard for me to read this though you had no spelling errors it was written weirdly. It would've been better if you wrote it as "I thought that he would say something anything, but instead these words came out." See how it flows more smoothly? Also you used present tenses when you should've used past tenses since your story seemed like it was being written in the past rather then now. I hope this helps you out and makes sense. I'll be happy to give you more help if you need it especially with your tenses!

Flow (5/10)

I gave you a low score because of how much trouble you had with your grammar and again it was also because of the awkward syntax you used. Also sometimes I had trouble trying to figure out what you were trying to say or refer too and also it did jump around a lot especially in the second chapter I got completely lost. It said when it went to Teentop’s point of view that it was that night I got confused and thought you meant the night she showed them around since at the beginning of the chapter it showed how she was getting ready to show them around but it was actually showing the night before and then the beginning of that day, so I got very confused for a second or two.

Visual Things (14/15)

The visual things that caused you to get less than a 15 was your text, though it was readable in some chapters the size or style of text changed out of nowhere, but besides that I had no problem with any of the visual aspects of your story.

Ending (--/10)

You did not have and ending yet,therefore this will not be counted for your final score.

Extra Comments:

The story was not bad, just i have seen multiple stories like this one so it was not every eye catching. I also think you have GREAT potential to be an amazing writer just need to work on your English and writing a bit more! I wish you luck. Also like I sad before I would be glad to help you out any time. ^^

Total (54/90)

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~

" Hark! Hark now!
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
