        @writerlexi1216 Sorry for the late reply, but I’d love to read it when I next have time! (After I go back and read the first chapter, of course!)

              I love this sooo much!!!  Great job, Lexi!!! ?  To answer your questions,

              1)  I really like Caira’s character, especially her internal monologue!!

              2)  Yes, I would!!!  I really love the idea of the “Prodigy” and Deek… I mean, what else is there to say?

              3)  I think the pacing is great!!

              Great job!!!!! ?

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

                  Yeah, all of them are (so far). Yes, Caira is interesting! I enjoyed being in her head. 🙂

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

                  100%. I would definitely keep reading!!!!! YES, the second chapter got me more hooked than the first one!

                  3. Is the pacing all right?

                  I think so? I’m not good at judging at pacing since I can read all sorts of pacing fine. Nothing seemed really off or wrong at all.

The comments you gave were immensely helpful, and thank you for taking the time to read through my, er, lengthy chapters 🙂 Yay, I’m glad Caira was interesting, and I’m even more glad you were hooked!!!! *wipes sweat off forehead* And I’m also glad you thought the pacing was good. Thank you!!!

                      You’re welcome! I’m so glad they were helpful! I’m fairly new at giving feedback, so it’s good to know that I’m fairly good at it and I can be helpful rather than just plain critical. It was my pleasure! I loved every second of your lengthy chapters!

                              Katherine, THANK YOU!!! I’m SO HAPPY you’ve enjoyed reading my chapters!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 Seriously, you made my day (and week!!!) I’m over the moon that so many people are interested in my story and my characters (because I was SUPER nervous it wasn’t good!!!!) Aww, I’m so glad that you like Caira, because I tried to make her relatable in many different areas (I feel like this gets better as the story goes on), and DEEK! YES! Deek deserves his very own fan club 😉 And pacing is something I was nervous about! THANK YOU X 1,000 for this super awesome feedback!!!! <3333333
