Cover: 3/05
The cover is simple but extremely well-made and organized. The font style is perfect, and the efforts to include unique aspects that are relevant to the plot enrich the cover even more. The female figure doesn't merge in with the background of the cover, but the rest of it looks quite attractive.

Title: 4.5/05
The title is long and appropriate given the plot.

Synopsis: 9/10
The prior review's opinion of blurb remains unchanged in my mind. It's flawless and perfect.

Execution: 8/10
Every aspect of the book is well written and organized. There were many parts that had their own worth even if they weren't directly related to the main plot.

Plot: 15/20
Every subplot, small event and incident was creative and interesting, and it kept me engaged in the story without boredom. The bonding, little climaxes, and interactions with other characters were all flawless, thrilling, and enjoyable. It helped me empathize with the protagonist and better comprehend her predicament to know that danger was still present, thus I loved how you included background information in addition to the current plot. Regarding the scene in the stadium, I advise having her do something when they tried to lead her into a dark alley; at the very least, make it appear as though she dropped her phone on purpose or something because she knew Charlie or Asher were coming for her, allowing them to realize something was wrong, which they actually did. Readers prefer to see the protagonist make some effort, if not a modest one, and don't want to see the character utterly defenseless, unless her ability to think fully vanishes in fear due to blank mind or freeze mode.

Writing style: 18/20
The descriptions, monologue and narration were all smooth, easy to understand, visualize the settings and feel the atmosphere. The paragraphs were perfect—they weren't too long or too short, but just right. The conversations between characters successfully served to highlight the kind of personalities they had.

Grammar and Vocabulary: 18/20
There were no grammatical or lexical errors, demonstrating the author's endeavor to produce tidy work.

Character development: 7/10
The characters' qualities were intriguing, and they significantly improved the storyline. They react to situations with appropriate emotions, thinking, and conclusions. I adore Charlie and how their relationship developed slowly over time rather than quickly from acquaintances to friends to lovers. I must admit, amazing chemistry exists between them and it's praiseworthy that Charlie handled Yeojin like any other female up until the apartment disaster brought them closer; it all seemed logical and realistic. Although the scene in the forest where Charlie opens up to Yeojin was rushed, it still had a reassuring message and was a good chapter overall. It just didn't have the impact it should have. You should, in my opinion, include something more significant again or maybe the fast pace just failed to convey the emotions of the characters at that moment. Overall, every character is quite likable; yet, there are so many of them that readers may become confused, but the protagonist's uncertainty due to the same reason gave a comedic element to the story. I like that Alyssa is not the stereotypical villain who persists in every situation without reading the mood; instead, she knows when to quit and when to draw the line. Lastly, the author deserves praise for developing memorable and engaging characters.
