Review: A pleasure to read right from the start. The bold protagonist, unique love interest and the humourous vibe will hook readers. However I suggest the author switches up the chapter intros (e.g Chapter 1 and 2 start with an internet stream buffering) and several paragraphs start with the name of the protagonist.
*2nd place*

Plot development: [14/15]

Review: The author did an excellent job of depicting the story of a realistic woman and her internal conflict with her loyalty to her husband and longing for her former lover and the external conflict of infertility. The narration and grammar are on point and the pacing is good. However, I suggest another font for the title because at first glance the 't' in both words looks like 'i'.

Book: A Hunt for His Queen
Author: Eva_Zahan
Book cover and title: [10/10]
Blurb: [9/10]
Plot development: [14/15]
Character development: [8/10]
Grammar and punctuation: [3.5/5]
Overall enjoyment: [19.5/20]
Total score: [64/70]
Review: I will definitely want to keep reading this story. The author incorporated many familiar tropes but built a well fleshed out protagonist and her life around it. Everything about this story is captivating but I highly recommend the author gets it edited for a few oddly used words/grammatical errors (e.g 'vile rose up my throat' instead of 'bile rose up my throat' in chapter 2. Well done and best wishes.
Congratulation to the winners of the Chicklit category!
