      @ingridrd So sorry for the late response! I have read through and critiqued chapters 1-2 and I’ll move on to 3-4 soon. πŸ˜€ The story is very intriguing. πŸ˜‰

          I love the castle part!!!! Like where she walks into the room and it like materializes? That is my favorite part thus far!

          It would be amazing and maybe scary to look into your imagination…

                        @ingridrd No, not annoying at all! I did finish reading. The thing is, I can’t comment on the actual document. Not any fault of how the doc is set up, just stuff on my end. Sorry about that.
                        I enjoyed the chapters. If they were from a book I noticed at the library, I would definitely check it out and keep reading! I don’t have any suggestions.

                              Okay, I’m gonna kind of sort of *completely* copy you and ask you some questions about my story, if you don’t mind (since you’re the only one who has finished it so far)!

                              1.Β  Who was your favorite character and why?

                              2. Were there any scenes that felt unnecessary or just like a complete info-dump?

                              3. Are the characters (especially Jaclyn) relatable enough and real enough?

                              4. Were there any major plot points that just didn’t make sense?

                              5. Was the ending satisfying and would you read the next book?


                              @kaya-young
                              @daughteroftheking @anyone-else-who-was-readingΒ  Feel free to answer these once you’ve finished!Β  πŸ˜‰

                                @ingridrd Well I copied Seekjustice’s idea of asking questions at the end, so really you’re copying her πŸ˜›

                                my answers:

                                1. Jaclyn was definitely my favorite! She’s just so spunky and relatable and, well I just lover ‘er! πŸ˜‰ William was also adorable.

                                2. it’s been a while since I finished it, but from what I can remember, no unnecessary or info-dumping scenes come to mind.

                                3. Yes, in my opinion. I felt I could relate to Jaclyn (because HELLO! traveling to another world! I was as afraid and confused as she was :P) [no your writing wasn’t confusing, just wanted to clarify that πŸ˜‰ ]

                                4. Nope, don’t think so. The story always kept my attention really well. πŸ™‚

                                5. OH MY GOODNESS YES I MUST READ THE NEXT BOOK!!!! major cliffhanger for me, and WHAT A CLIFFHANGER! πŸ˜€

                                Overall I thought your story was really good, especially your world-building. I was able to picture everything in my mind (and I wasn’t confused), and I think you balanced well giving the reader enough info to trigger their imagination and not describing things too much. Really great job! πŸ˜‰
