Hey guys.
So I've been getting a lot of mixed reviews for my book, Pretty Unlikely.
I personally, as the author, would like to explain myself and the characters a bit to those who felt confused or in disbelief.

It has come to my attention that the main character, Anna Strouse is slutty, has no class, is dumb, or annoying. Let me just note, that this is all done on purpose. I made my main character to be a very controversal object. You either love her or hate her. I'm personally the type of author who doesn't want to be like the rest. Like Bella Swan or Anastasia Steele characters. Though I thought those books were solid, it doesn't mean I want my main character to be in that cliche genre with their personalities.

Another thing, I drop many hints in my book that Anna is supernatural. She explains it pretty clear so her reacting to a killing monster who is misunderstood is quite normal to her.

I made the mother to be a bad mother because she is in a way, bipolar, though she buys her children whatever they please, she still has her moments. I know she did some good though which is why I state in the book that Anna feels guilty sometimes for being a brat.

If it is not written well, I am sorry. I am still going to college to better myself, though I am majoring in journalism. I do not expect people to read Harry Potter or Twilight in my books. I know that my writing is mediocre/good/pretty good type thing. I also made my book to be a rambling, look-inside-character's-mind type of book.


Though Edmond is a small fraction of the book, please leave him alone. I've so far gotten 2 or 3 people saying the rat is pointless in the book but in the second book, if you read it, you will see that he very much has a purpose in the Pretty Unlikely Trilogy.

So with all of everyone's feedback, whether it was a complaint or liked it or loved it, I at least wanted to clear things up, and I know I am not a best-seller, though I plan to be one 2-40 years down the road. Whatever happens.

All of your feedback truly helped me, even the bad reviews.

Thanks to everyone:)

I will never stop writing.


Just so you know...hopefully the moral of my book came across clearly. It was this: Accept people for the way they are, no matter what they look like. Isaiah is a very misunderstood gentle creature, who only kills out of self-defense if someone is trying to kill him first, which would be fine if a human did that in real life. But when a monster does? Oh no! He is evil! Isaiah is beaten and bruised up and a science creation. He is no human-looking thing at all but he portrays all the teens/adults out there who are judged and feared of because of their looks. I find this world to be extremely shallow so having him in my book, portrayed as that in an over the top scary way, makes me proud of myself. I was like Isaiah in high school and middle school. "Goth", so they called me, freak, ugly, psycho...made me want to write my feelings and make a creature that goes through reactions on looks. He is also inspired by Edward Scissorhands, Frankenstein, and Tin Man from Wizard Of Oz, though his powers and personality are completely different. I also resemble Anna in the fact that she stands up for what she believes in.

Everyone else in the book were inspired by people I know who, I will not name.

All in all, I will continue to perfect this book:)
