《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》'E V E R M O R E' by midnightskies-
Advertisement
E V E R M O R E, or Evermore, as I'm going to be calling it, features a world in which women are viewed mostly as possessions. By that I mean it's like this world, but more obvious. Fathers sell their daughters to the highest bidder, who will then become said daughter's husband. Talia isn't really feeling up to it, but then someone offers her a way to freedom: she has to poison the king.
With five chapters, the story is still introducing its world, characters, and concepts. We haven't seen everything the plot promises yet, but the plot does sound promising and interesting enough. It's enough to keep me interested for the rest.
The characters and such are, like I said, still being introduced. They aren't fully developed yet, it appears to me, but I expect this to be fixed in later chapters; give it time and all will be well.
The GPS is messy, to say the least. The punctuation especially isn't always spot-on, which distracts me and most likely other users too from the story. I've also seen other mistakes, like using 'i' and 'Im' instead of 'I' and 'I'm', and also the misuse of 'your' and 'you're'. This is something to edit and pay attention to, as the story will be a lot easier to read when this is fixed.
The story needs editing, but in terms of plot, I'd like to see more.
Rating: 6,5

Jalan Suram : The 100 Fire Holders
"Why us?" Still staring at the unusually stationary fire of the candle he was holding, Agung voiced the questions in our mind. "Out of 2 million people living in this city, why are we the chosen ones?" As if on cue, the eerie laughter of children could be heard above us. Holding our own candle tightly, we resolved to ignore them and continued our discussion. It was a matter of life or death after all. More than half of the initial participants had fallen and the building became more crowded as the result. There were now more ghosts than the living and each step was filled with danger from the unknown. Either we solved all the questions now or we would become another addition to the ghost camp. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There was one thing Novita found out after she accepted an invitation to a suspicious event from a seemingly legal company. Crowded didn't exactly mean safe. As more and more variables were added to the dangerous ritual, the higher the risk of death. At the same time, the higher the risk was, the better the rewards for it. But in the end, was it worth it? Note : This series was posted on scribblehub.com under the same name.
