3-Chapter Checkpoint – Distinctive (3/5)
The voice is undeniably unique—unfiltered, mathematical, obsessive. The protagonist’s isolation is clearly taking a toll, and her intense fixation on numbers may suggest neurodivergence. It’s refreshing for now, a bold narrative choice that stands out. But if the whole book continues in this manner, it might become unberable. For now, I’m intrigued and cautiously optimistic.

Mid-Book Checkpoint – Sweet Cringe (1/5)
What started off with a promising hook has crashed straight into cliché. Just another angsty romance: two hot boys (one possessive and troubled, the other nice and safe), and a “special” teenage girl caught in between. It’s easy to read, sure, and I might ride it out for the delicious cringe. But the intrigue? Gone. Actually, it never really was there.

100-pages Checkpoint - Fading spark (2/5)
What felt like careful pacing is beginning to feel like a lack of substance. The reveal is moving too slowly and I’m starting to suspect there might be very little there to uncover and it seems like it was just a veneer masking a weak core idea (or no solid idea at all). The initial spark is fading fast.
