Chrysanthemums

Title (4/5)
At first sight, the title got me like 'Ah, flower's name' . It wasn't really catchy, but nevertheless, it truly fits the whole story. At first I thought it was just going to be another boring story with a beautiful one-word title which plot didn't really suit the title. But now after finishing reading it all, I finally got what the Chrysanthemums actually meant.
Graphics (3/5)
The poster was a bit too bright for my liking, it's beautiful. At first glance, it's like representing death, so I think it definitely fits the theme of the story; bittersweet friendship.
Description and Foreword: (7/10)
When I first read the description, I wasn't that interested because I didn't get what you were trying to tell about the whole story. But a foreword is a foreword, we cannot spill the hidden meanings of those sentences or else it wouldn't be interesting to read anymore. Although the description was very short, it was mysterious. One more thing I really like about the description was that it was perfectly explained chapters by chapters.
Story Layout: (5/5)
Everything was very well written and organized. The paragraphs weren't messy and neither were the fonts. I really enjoy neatly written stories and yours is one of the ones I enjoyed. Good job!
Plot: (26/30)
I'm not really into friendship kind of stories because almost all of the ones I've read had some ridiculous and not making sense dramas. I'm glad that I read yours. Not only it was greatly written, it had a good plot too. People nowadays prefer romance/fantasy to friendship kind of genre, I'm sad that they even miss this beautiful story.
I like the ending, it was so touching that I smiled while reading it. It got through my heart. Though the purpose of this story was just to get them back together, but for me it was not just that. I got some life lessons from it too. (I really like to find some life lessons on every fiction, excuse me lol. They help me to be mature and not childish.)
Characterization: (10/10)
The characters weren't out of character. Each of them had a different personality which made them complete each other. And I also like how you told each of the characters chapters by chapters. It showed us what they personally thought and made us easier to grasp what the main problem was.
Content Description (10/10)
I definitely love the way you wrote the story. I think everyone got the feel. Every single sentence was written beautifully. There was literally no problem for me to portray the scenes and everything. All of the words you used were easy to understand.
Flow: (5/5)
The story flows perfectly, I didn't feel like it was too fast or too slow.

Grammar: (9/10)
There are no major grammatical errors, but I think you misspelled 'their' as 'they're'.

Taste of the Story: (8.5/10)
As I've said before, for I'm not a fan of friendship stories, I must say that your story is really good. I see your readers really enjoy reading the whole story. I agree with them saying that it was so beautiful.
Sorry if this took sooooooooo much time, I'd been busy but now I'm on my school holiday so I'm free! And sorry if this review isn't very long, I'm not really good with words! Thank you and keep writing! :)
