      So, I’m back again, and I’m trying super hard not to be nervous posting my second chapter. All of you gave such supportive and helpful feedback (thank you x 1,000 again!) and said you wanted to read more! This chapter is a bit slower, and it answers some old questions as well as gives new ones *evil grin* I like to keep things mysterious 😉

      Anyways, I did have a few questions I’d like to ask after y’all read this:

      1. Are my characters likable? I just wanted confirmation that Caira was, in fact, interesting.

      2. Is the story engaging? If you were in a bookstore, would you keep reading? Does it keep you hooked?

      3. Is the pacing all right?

      I appreciate all you lovely folks reading/critiquing this for me! This is my first novel ever, so sorry if it’s a little rough… I’m really trying my best 🙂

      You can find the second chapter here. Also, I’m sorry for any grammatical errors. I’ll tag some random people below.

              THANK YOU!! I’m so happy that you enjoyed it (and were hooked)!! Your feedback means so much to me, and it’s very supportive 🙂

              Ah, YES! My boyyy Newton has made his first appearance!! (also trying not to scream because I fangirl over him way more than I should XD) Obviously this was ‘friendly’ Newton. The next time you meet him….. it’s a whole lot different XD And GOSH I’M SO HAPPY that Newton has so many fans!!

              Thank you!! Your encouragement really makes me smile! 😀

                @writerlexi1216 I had plans for tonight. I would have carried them out had your post not caught my eye (I nearly overlooked it).

                However, I hath found thee. And, in my finding, I have relinquished all plans over to the grip of feverish excitement.

                I can’t wait to read it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                              @writerlexi1216 Just finished it! Left a few notes here and there. I think you did good! Caira is quite interesting, and I would like to find out more! I think that the pacing is good for a novel.

                              Can’t wait to see more!

                              Would you mind letting me know

                                Awww, thank you! 🙂 I appreciate it the feedback (it was super helpful, so thank you!) Pacing is something that can be a little difficult for me, but I’m glad you think it’s good *wipes sweat off forehead* This is my first novel, so I’m really glad for all the feedback 😀
