《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》'First time' by GoldesttMaknae
Advertisement
I think I should start by sincerely apologizing, because you waited for more than a year for this, which is… far too long of a time. My system of keeping track of my review requests failed me sometimes (as did life, but that's something else), and this request seems to have gotten lost in the chaos for too long. But better late than never, and here we are!
We've got ourselves another BTS fanfic here. We follow Raemin, our main character, in her turbulent school life filled with Jimin, Taehyung, and a whole lot of drama. While I think it's supposed to be Raemin/Jimin endgame, the chapters I've read mainly focused on Raemin/Taehyung, and that means we got ourselves a nice little love triangle.
Or, like… a love pentragram. Because there's been a whole lot of cheating and sleeping around so far.
I'm gonna go ahead and call the plot… mildly weak. It seems to hinge mostly on school drama, which is quite over the top in many instances (the amount of hostility the main character must deal with and the amount of dudes interested in her are, frankly, kind of ridiculous), and that simply doesn't make for the richest experience. Not that it matters, because this is a fanfic, and in a fanfic you can get away with little to no decent plot whatsoever, but… let's say this story just became more of the same at every turn. More cheating, more drama, more betrayals… it's a lot.
The main character, Raemin, also doesn't convince me much. She's got a sharp tongue working for her (like approximately every Wattpad protagonist), but other than that, I don't even know what her interests are. She doesn't seem to have much of a life outside of school, Taehyung, and Jimin. I could even remove school from that list if I wanted to, because she doesn't seem to get assignments of homework anyway. Other than that, I think Taehyung is the only 'character' that didn't feel one-dimensional.

Let's also talk about supporting characters for a second. Why is nearly every person at Raemin's school either a hostile slutty bitch or a fuckboy? And no matter the gender, they are all horny on main, like, all the time. And while horny teenagers are definitely a thing, there's a lot more going on in a high school than dramatic gossip and sex-obsession. Like… actual teaching. And weird conversations about Percy Jackson and atomic bombs (don't ask). Try to make this school and the people in it feel more like actual teenagers in an actual school. Will improve your setting and plot by a mile.
The GPS is decent. Few misspellings and grammar mistakes, but the punctuation could use work. There were often missing periods in dialogue, that sort of stuff. Not too annoying, but it may be an idea to do some more editing.
That said, this was a pretty humourous read, despite its over-the-top-ness and and occasional stealing of jokes from the internet. If you're a fan of BTS and are looking for an entertaining read, this could very well be your thing!
Rating: 5. Entertaining, but needs a lot of work in quite some aspects.

Supervillain
The world is broken and rotten. It's supposed defenders are too weak willed to do what is necessary. It's leaders are too corrupt to care for those beneath them If they wont fix this world, then I will! I will make the world a better place ..... by any means necessary! Nice to meet you all. My name is Ginobi47. A lurker of fanfiction.net and now a writer of original fic.This is my first original work and I do hope you enjoy it! Do remember that this is a fiction in the Superhero genre. Please expect the craziness that goes along with it. NOTE: English is not my maiden language. AUTHOR'S NOTE: As I went through the other fictions of Royal Road, I noticed that my style of writing style (slow release, 1 big post) doesnt work well in this site. As such, I'll be experimenting on releasing smaller chapters more often, as this seems to be how the authors of Royal Road does things. Mind you, my release speed will still be very slow compared to others, but I'll churn out chapters more often than what I used to do. DISCORD SERVER: https://discord.gg/M7bmjTH ANOTHER NOTE: Some of my readers convinced me to set up a discord server. While I have absolutely no idea what to do in a discord server, but if you're interested, just join in and go nuts. Suggest some storylines or characters, seek advice in just about anything or tell me your deepest darkest secret (you can PROBABLY trust me ^.^). Feel free to do whatever is fun

For them the laws of the state take a backseat the laws of the concrete jungle. This is the bizarre version of New York City Isaac Moon has found himself trapped in. Equipped with some strange interface he barely understands, Isaac tries to find his way back to his own reality one fight at a time.
