《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》'Love lessons (BTS FANFIC)' by faraahfanfic
Advertisement
Damn, y'all sure love giving me BTS fanfics to read, huh? I review more original fiction than fanfiction, but if you look at the fanfics I've reviewed? At least a 50% chance it's a BTS one.
This BTS fanfic is called 'Love Lessons' and it's written by faraahfanfic. It features main character Shay Scott, an OC who has a crush on BTS member V (Taehyung), except he's not a band member; this is a high school AU. The thing is, Shay has zero experience with love and relationships whatsoever. Tae's friend Jungkook starts giving Shay 'love lessons' in order to boost her confidence. But that, of course, would cause drama if Taehyung found out.
I don't think this plot is the most original. Seeing as this is fanfiction and not original fiction, that was to be expected, I suppose. But sometimes the plot feels like an abundance of tropes and clichés thrown together in a big messy pile.
Examples of tropes found: rich girl hiding the fact she's rich, controlling/ 'evil' parent, (upcoming) love triangle, the concept of love lessons (though they're still innocent in this fic), clingy ex… of course, every story incorporates tropes, but be careful with them: they can become clichés real quick.
The characters, I think, are well written. At least Shay and the band members are, in my opinion. I do think that Shay's mother comes across as a stereotype at times.
GPS is fine, quite alright. Does have missing commas and misplaced periods, but nothing major. It isn't enough to make the book hard to read, so that's fine.
Lastly: I like the pacing of the story. With 55 (not too long) chapters, I can see the author takes their time to write the characters and their relationships. The story isn't rushed and I can appreciate that!
Rating: 6.5. Could've been higher with a stronger plot, but this is nice so far.

Daybreak
In a world of swords, magic, and wonders, Vreil suddenly loses his family to a twist of fate. On his quest to survive, he follows a mysterious wizard, and becomes embroiled in a revolution he knows little of. He cultivates magic, learns to fight with a blade, and meets worthy companions. He grows stronger and more mature, gradually turning from prey into a hunter. And in his journey, Vreil clashes with pirates, immortal jokesters, wolves and, even worse, sheep. Can he use magic, blade and wit to fight them off? Or will he be the one to fall instead? Follow Vreil on his adventures. Witness the dawn of an era. 🧙🧙🧙 This is a story I'd written a few years back, and I figured it's a waste to just let it sit around. Most of it is already written, but I'm going through the chapters and editing the shit out of them. This story is NOT a Lit-RPG, so no blue screens or anything of the sort. It is just fast-paced fiction with slight cultivation elements. Updates are bi-daily (so every 2 days), and chapters are 1500-3000 words. As always, feedback is more than welcome. Why are you still reading the synopsis? You have already decided. Go ahead, give this story a shot. It's worth it.
