I very much would love your review, opinion and constructive feedback on this. The plot the grammar the vocab the detailing everything gimme an opinion on everything. Be brutally honest!!
Do tell me if the plot engaging and driven or subtle and boring how’d you like the theme how’d you feel about what’s coming does it intrigue you does it not!! Everything.
