Title: --/10
I’ve omitted this part of the review because the title is from a challenge so I think it’d be fair this way :)

Poster & Background: 10/10
The poster looks really nice and it matches the general plot of the story. The colour of the poster matches well with your background since they are all black, and it has a really nice contrast with the font colour as well.

Foreword: 8/10
The foreword was really well written, and also, I like how you’ve combined the title and related it to the story. I think your foreword could have given a bit more information rather than just providing the characters.

Cast Used: 5/5
I think the casts you picked were well used, and how you don’t have too many characters. I also like the way you presented the characters.

Originality & Creativity: 15/15
The story I can say is really interesting and the way you presented the story was a really creative & unique way. I like how you wrote it in reverse chronology and it also makes us as readers think about what might have happened between the characters beforehand. I think the story itself was pretty good and well written; it has its own unique ways.

Story & Plotting: 15/15
- Is the story interesting and unique? I think the plot was really interesting and of course, adding on the way you’ve presented your story, it adds on that effect & makes us want to read more after each chapter. It either seems like your chapters aren’t enough or you just gotta update more chapters! I think overall, your story was pretty creative, it’s a first time I’ve read a story like yours, how they somehow had a one-night stand and then the next day, he finds out that she was a suspect for a murder case! Heck, talk about coincidences!

Spelling/Grammar/Vocabulary: 10/10
The spelling, grammar & vocabulary in your story are really good & I don’t find any problem understanding it when reading it, good job!

Flow of Story: 7/10
In the beginning of each story, you’ve added the last few sentences from the previous chapter; and for me, it helped me understand what was happening in that chapter more and connects your story within each chapter. It was pretty obvious that you have written the whole story before posting it up because you had to go in reverse order. In the first chapter, I’ve got to admit that I was lost with what was happening in the story, like I would be questioning myself “What happened between those two? Why is she mad at him?” and just other questions like that.

Writing Style: 5/5
Throughout the story, you’ve used both paragraph & dialogue format of presenting your story, which in my opinion, a good way to keep readers from being bored since some people can get bored from just reading paragraphs after paragraphs.

Overall Enjoyment: 9/10
I enjoyed reading the story a lot and I think it’s really unique how you made it backwards with the “violet” chapter in the end, which is sort of like wrapping up your story besides the epilogue. But I’ve got to admit, in some parts I was rather confused since it was in reverse chronology, but it was really unique and because I got to read it all together, I didn’t have the trouble of waiting for you to update, it sometimes kill to wait for authors to update haha XD

Bonus marks: 5/5
Good job on replying to comments & not just saying “thanks” or the same thing over again :) I also like how you have an epilogue & a production note/author’s words before ending the story completely.

Total mark: 89/90 – good job!
