Beast et Beauty
written by KangminBread
reviewed by Amber_Sica

Title: 9/10
I really love your title. It shows first off that your story is to be a play on Beauty and the Beast, and yet it already gives the idea that your story is going to be very unique. Really, my only issue with the title is that at first glance it looks like 'Beast EAT Beauty' and that would be a drastically different story lol.

Plot: 31/35

4/5: Originality
Well, honestly since it is a spin off of Beauty and the Beast, I do have to take off a point for this category. Other than that, though, I absolutely loved how you twisted the story and combined other elements into it to make it totally yours. This is such an original piece and easily the best Beauty/Beast rendition I've ever read.

8/10: Believability
There were some things that stretched the imagination, such as the whole Sungmin choosing to stay at that place, but those were needed for the storyline and so I thought that they definitely had a place in the story. I think my biggest problem with the believability came when he learned how he not only shared a name but a face with his old soul self; I think it would be more believable to have a different name for the old one. However, once again, I understand why they share the name/resemblence and so as it is, a bit unbelievable or not, I loved it.

10/10: Narration
I loved your narration style.

Chapter 22: After finally finishing writing It Begins With Blood (still posting the last couple chapters), I decided to revisit the previous review. It still has just as much impact now as it did then, if not more so. There are certainly many things I could go back and change to make it more accessible to readers and more pertinent to the tags specifically listed. As I got to the end, it definitely felt even harder to juggle the people I'd introduced and to make sure they all had some sort of resolution. To the point that I'm not sure I succeeded even half as well as I intended. But I do know that with the sound critique given, the access to the polls taken, and the suggestions made in regards to how I can make it better, this is certainly a project I would like to put under the microscope again at a later point in time. Perhaps when it's not so fresh (now) and it's had a chance to settle. Writing 'The End' is always hard with any extensive piece of work and this one was no different. But I do feel I can make it better and give it a stronger direction and purpose in the future. To that end, I wanted to thank Amber_Sica again and especially you Librarian for keeping the reviews in an easily accessible archive for later perusal. It's incredibly helpful and I will be coming back to it in the future. Cheers!
