Walking Disasters

(Best word count: 2501)

Title: Walking Disaster

Genre: Teen Fiction

Blurb: Three years ago, suicidal Charlie Rosehart and Jonah Cavalcanti agreed that if they were going to kill themselves, they were going to do it together.

Three years ago, they were supposed to jump. He did; she hesitated at the last second, and she watched as he fell to his death on that grimy city asphalt, too afraid to do the same herself.

But Jonah Cavalcanti didn't die. No, he's spent all this time in and out of hospitals recovering from both her betrayal and a debilitating spinal cord injury, but now he's back. The mysterious, attractive boy from Charlie's past is back, better than ever, and bent on making her new life a living hell.

Maybe she should have just jumped after all.

Status: Ongoing

Starting Points: 30

Cover: Meh. I, personally, feel nothing for it. I wouldn't click on it, but someone else would. It looks like a Tumblr edit, which is off-putting. Sure it fits the genre (which I think shouldn't be your genre...), but it still is basic. In a bad way. (-3)

Title: I like it! It's melodramatic and sums up the feel I'm getting from the cover and whatnot. No points lost here.

Summary: Great summary! Hallelujah!

It isn't stupendous, but boy does it make me want to read on. I'm sure you get this a lot, so I won't bored you in compliments for too long. It's good.

-My only point out is on the grammar: you put "he's" as a stand in for "he has" when he's only means "he is".

*Winces* so close, I'm going to have to take them bud. *Struggles from taking it from your death grasp*

-Give it! (-2)

Plot: The fakest girl in HISTORY didn't keep her promise, so now some abusive sociopathic stalker ex is coming after her. Intense.

-I may cringe, but I'm still interested. Roll the clip!

Opening thoughts:

-I read this like three months ago, and it has appeared that I voted for this chapter. *Takes back vote*

-Kidding! I will take it back if though I things get ugly, and I have to scold my past self for trusting you.

-Oops, I took it back. I don't even know why I voted for this chapter, it isn't even a chapter.

-Okay, so chapter one was voted for as well, and now I remembered why I did that. I was trying to eat your ass. *Audience gasps* it's not what it seems!

-I think destacia does critiques? (Right?) and they offered them if you read some chapters...or maybe it was add it to your PRL? Anyway, I'm sure I did that to get some good points up in there *awkwardly laughs*. How embarrassing. I'm taking them all back, it's only fair, nor do I have to caress your ego. I was being overly nice then. Now, I'm revealing my true self: A blunt, overly sarcastic (borderline bitch), book junkie, and computer nerd, so get ready.

-Any who! Let's begin.

-*Senses another quote*

*Rolls eyes*

-God, I hate seeing corny song lyrics or a quote from another piece of literature at the beginning of chapters. Why do you all even do that? What's up with this tasteless trend? Make your own damn quotes! Be original! Throw this old and crusty trend away already! It was cute the first time it was done, but now after every single teen fiction, romance, and dystopian novel on Wattpad has used this tired trick, it has grown stale. Every time I see this in a book I review from now on are losing three points on sight. I don't care! (-3)
