Grammatical errors is based on how long the novel is
Mostly things that can easily be fixed if read over more carefully before publishing (but I have some of those too). The thing that really messed up the grammar were the way some sentences were stated. It was said in an unclear way that didn't make much sense and really needed to be worded. I saw this a number of times.
Characters: (3)/15
(Well Developed; 12-15 Points)
(Developed; 8-11 Points)
(Understood; 5-7 Points)
(Difficult to Understand; 3-4 Points)
(Confusing; 0-2 Points)
Right off the bat you don't get a good feel for this novel. The characters don't get into great detail about their personalities and it becomes very had to relate to them. In order for a character to be well developed they really need to have a set and distinctive personality and the characters in this really didn't.
Layout: (3)/5
(Perfect; 5 Points)
(Good; 4 Points)
(Understood; 3 Points)
(Difficult to Understand; 2 Points)
(Confusing; 0-1 Points)
Layout in terms of correct paragraphs, dialogue, etc.
It's still not the way it should be. Some paragraphs were correct, and some were not. The author really needs to pay attention to know when to begin a new paragraph. A new paragraph starts when a new idea is presented or a new character speaks than the previous one.
Descriptions: (4)/15 Points
(Extremely Well Described; 14-15 Points)
(Well Described; 11-13 Points)
(Understandable; 7-10 Points)
(Difficult to Imagine; 4-6 Points)
(Confusing; 0-3 Points)
Descriptions of Scenes
The scenes in this book really didn't go into much depth. It was very much one scene and an instant flash to the next. It really could've gone into much more depth than it did.
Likability: (2)/5

(Wanting to Read More; 4 Points)
(Not On My Mind 24/7; 3 Points)
(Not My Favorite; 2 Points)
(Can't Read It; 0-1 Points)
It's really just that the plot is soooo used and nothing special is different about this book from a different one of a similar plot.
Does This Book Have A Future: (2)/5

(I Think So; 4 Points)
(One Hit Wonder; 3 Points)
(I'm not Sure; 2 Points)
(No; 0-1 Points)
Comments: The pace of this book was a big issue for me too. It went WAY to fast and didn't go into much detail at all. In general it was just not a winning book.
