I've read OP's chapters and provided some feedback. I'm pretty sure this feedback is accurate and constructive. If OP could follow this advice, your writing would be more powerful.

Just a quick comment, your chapter order is messed up. You should sort your chapters first. Edit: Wanting this feedback, I'd like a full book review on my new ongoing novel is contradictory. How can someone write a full review when the book is still incomplete (ongoing)? This is too much for...

Dialogue tags are less aesthetically pleasing, but they're necessary for reader navigation.

I agree with your answer. Body language is a subtle expression of emotion. Showing emotions through body language is a great way to make readers feel the character's emotional dynamics and avoid characters being too flat. However, this approach is not without criticism or, more precisely, not...

The fact that the editing stage exists inherently proves that the work wasn't originally written perfectly. It requires numerous edits, whether it's storytelling, story content, and language. If an author can write perfectly from the first draft, without typos, plot holes, info dumps, etc; they...

If I were in your shoes, I would STOP MY WRITING STYLE, rewrite my chapters, and continue the latest chapter with a new writing style. I would not betray the integrity of the work, the readers, and the growth of the writer's skills. No work is perfect from the start.

I've been foreshadowing the ending since the synopsis and prologue. So, well, every beginning has an ending.

If the writing quality is indeed good, then the content issues are likely irrelevant to engagement. It means that low engagement is more due to market preferences, fiction packaging, and promotion. The author is correct in identifying the synopsis and cover art as potentially problematic, as...

From you, two thousand years ago... Welcome back, pink magical girl. You have been reborn:blob_teary:

Huh? What are you talking about? Is there anyone who replies to messages using AI?

Honestly... I don't want to get involved in the AI debate; I just want to focus on the manuscript, the quality of the narrative, and the reader experience. Even AI detectors don't dare claim to be accurate. I just want to focus on writing.

Use mirrors through other characters. Let other characters praise your character's poems. This way, you can build a poet-like image without having to be one. But of course, this won't be relevant if your fiction focuses on the theme of poetry. Look at music fiction like "Your Lie in April"...

What remains of a human being who has lost his/her memory, identity, and physical form? Can a person remain himself/herself? :blob_hmm:

Your synopsis is actually quite good, offering an existential experience rather than just a plot summary. But here's the problem: if you're targeting the casual reader market, your synopsis isn't compelling enough to make readers care about your character. Why? Because your fiction is more of...

I checked his profile... and yeah, he has a lot of work. One of them caught my interest (skip this part). The point is right, he doesn't really need technical assistance from fellow writers. What he needs more now is validation of his work. He needs readers (alpha/beta) to read his work, to...
