Book Title: Sackcloth and Ashes

Cover: 5/5
The cover is really pretty and mysterious.

Title: 5/5
The title is very unique and remarkable. Once readers read the book, they will know what it means.

Description: 3/5
I like the description, it is very suspenseful. But readers who only read the description won't be willing to go into the book and check it out. The description does not do good to the story, it puts the book down. If you put a catching blurb from any one of the chapter, I feel like it will attract more readers.

Grammar/Vocabulary: 15/15
Your grammar and vocabulary are on point and perfect.

Use of literary techniques: 10/10
This also is perfect.  No trouble here.

Character Development: 12/15
The book narrates the story from two POV and I can not exactly tell so much about the characters development. The book is very mysterious, you have to give it a read and see for yourself.

Emotions Evoked: 9/10
The book focuses on someone who has gone through a lot in their life. It will make you want to hug the character tight and tell them it is going to be ok. That is what I felt. The emotions I felt can't be explained in words.

Writing style: 8/10
The book explains a lot of minor details, to make it more imaginable, but some lazy readers will totally skip that part and only focus on the conversation. So try to keep that to a minimum. It is also pretty hard to grasp. But it is how the author writes and I found it remarkable.

Plot+Originality: 14/15
I have never seen a plot as interesting and amazing as yours. I was totally amazed at your work. It has so many poetic words and sentences, that will make you feel a lot of things. You can relate so much to the book.

General satisfaction: 8/10
I felt like the chapters are quite long and the flow is disturbed in some areas. Some readers won't even bother reading if the chapters are very long. But, I enjoyed the book. The ending of part 1 is really good and leaves you wanting to read more.

P.S: In the end the main character is not a-...
Opps can't say. Read it and find out of yourself.

Total marks: 89/100

I would definitely recommend reading this book because it is amazing and totally had me hooked. It has some mature themes, so do read the author notes, before you get into the book. Amazing work. Keep writing. All the best. I hope your book receives the recognition it deserves.  

-Thank you.
