I'll give all of your linked stories a quick review, just let me add everyone to my queue and get through it all. If someone else wants to be review swapped for the first few chapters, let me know. I'll give honest reviews, but I'm not a mean dude, so I'll try and point out several GOOD things, along with maybe one thing you can improve upon.

Don't take my word for gospel, though, I'm also just an up-and-coming author.

Current queue: 90751052 @Veronica8 Sapphirechelsea237 yunisao

No one has to review me back, but if you'd like to, I'd very much appreciate it. I'm trying to push past the 10 reviews minimum in order to have an overall score show. I'd prefer honest reviews in comparison to WebNovel's average. I know my release frequency may cost me a point or two, and I'm working on that. :D

Title: Embrace the Ether
Genre: Fantasy / Light Sci-fi
Link: https://www.webnovel.com/book/11703863906480505/Embrace-the-Ether

Synopsis:
To burn away the old, rebuilding it anew.

Countless years ago, a terrible war came for the ancient Primordials, casting down their once believed immovable dominance and securing the rise of a new empire. The Ether was fractured, broken into numerous pieces as peace was hard-fought.

Thrown into this new hectic land, Deus must come to wield an unexplained power, one that threatens both his sanity and life simply to use. If he wishes to survive, he must learn not only how to harness this strength but how to grow and expand it, altering the path of those around him. What he doesn't know is that he's found himself involved in a terrifying plot hosted by those demons of old, a game of sorts to decide the fate of Midnight.

Does Deus have what it takes to survive, or has he found himself trapped in a plot he has no hope of escaping?

*** Thanks again to whoever does review me, and I hope you enjoy my story. It's a bit slow in the beginning, as I've been told, but that's also something I have scheduled as a later-fix.

    Title: Endless Vertex

    https://dynamic.webnovel.com/book/13189662305003005

    Synopsis: Same old earth. Civilians living an absolutely normal life. But beneath the surface of our peaceful society, there are Warriors who commoners don’t know about, roaming amongst us. Like all humans, they fight against the unknown and even between themselves in order to gain ultimate power. They can accomplish extraordinary things that modern science has yet to prove and achieve.

    This is a novel about Atlas, a teenage Warrior’s rough adventures to become the strongest, discover life’s true purpose, as well as fascinating things that might actually exist in reality. Who knows? Your 80 year old neighbor could be a Warrior who can smash boulders and do the impossible.

    I hope you like it 😊

      I reviewed without reading much since it irked me how you didn't have all 10 reviews. I like the premise enough to keep reading tho. >3</

        90751052

        I appreciate it, lol.

        Yeah I've had plenty of views (people who clicked at least one chapter) but my reader interaction and feedback has been unfortunately a bit low.

        The few consistent people who comment though are always very satisfying, just knowing someone out there really enjoys my stuff is a very rewarding experience. :D

        Your review is done, and I added your story to my library. :thumbup:

        Now onto the rest of my queue. I'll see if I can't add bacon_bacon to my queue, too.

          Veronica8

          Thanks! I think I've had one of your stories in my library for a bit now since if my memory serves right, you write BL and not many people do.

          Very interesting stuff, always enjoy seeing more of that. :D

          (am gay, but you'll probably never see me add any romantic stuff into my stories, as I don't know how to write romance straight or gay. I'll stick to fantasy and sci-fi haha.)

            JVenior I liked your words on show don’t tell on another thread, so I’m interested in an review swap with you if you’re able~

            My World To Live
            https://m.webnovel.com/book/12836075506617305
            Fantasy
            with Adventure, Action, Romance, Mystery, Drama, Science Fiction (latent subgenre)
            Synopsis:
            Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was.

            Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters both demons and spirits in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who just reincarnated after three millennia.

            Essairyn is an abnormal human with elemental powers, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world of magic, danger, mystery, and intrigue.

            But this not a game. That simple adventure is actually the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tear even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought she was. And not even the gods can change the destiny of the universes...

            A single promise shook eternity’s existence.

              Oh sure, I've gotten halfway through my queue, so I'll just add you onto the end. Should only be an hour or so. :D

              I hope I can live up to your expectations, even though I know I'm guilty of 'telling, instead of showing' occasionally. I definitely do try and write around showing, though.

              I'm glad my words were able to impact you enough to remember me, though. :)

              Veronica8

              My review for you is done. :)

              Now onto the next in my queue. I'm glad I did this, I'm finding some really good and interesting stories to read.

              @Sapphirechelsea237 my review for you is also done. You can definitely tell I underestimated the reviews, as I've started speeding through them quicker, at the cost of a more in depth analysis.

              I also finished with your review @yunisao and will be moving onto @bacon_bacon now.

                JVenior No worries and no rush!

                At least you have a sound grasp on the concept. I’m always up for intellectual reviewing as I too who knows writing concepts may not always apply them successfully.

                  bacon_bacon Your review is done, and I've library'd your story. Libraried? Firefox says that's not a word... but it feels better then just throwing a 'd at the end of library... lol

                  Whatevs! :)

                  Chryiss I'm hoping to get your review done tonight or tomorrow, just don't expect a huge in-depth wall of text. I can always revise a review with one later, but my brain is kind of scrambled right now. Think I burned myself out drinking tonight. Mixed together some pineapple juice and rum. Not the fanciest thing, but sweet enough. :)

                  Yeah, I definitely grasp plenty of concepts and rules, but putting them into practice is another issue entirely. Like no fillers, no adjectives and adverbs, etc etc. https://www.brainpickings.org/2013/03/13/stephen-king-on-adverbs/

                  If not for Grammarly and ProWritingAid, I'd definitely have more issues than I'd like to admit. Quick and easy proof-readers, amen.

                    JVenior Ay it’s fine~ As long as it’s not a one or two liner that ultimately translates to good story bro then it’s good lol

                    Can you review mine? I will do yours!
                    TITLE-YOUR BETRAYING LOVE
                    Synopsis-
                    One day you're going to remember me and how much I loved you… then you will hate yourself for letting me go.“ ...

                    Is it a crime to fall in love?
                    Rosella had never thought that she would be trapped in a web of politics, lies, deception and misunderstandings.
                    What she wanted was love but received only pain and betrayal.
                    It is the story of a broken Empress, of her struggles inside a place full of ruthless schemes.

                    "How could you give me to any other man, I waited for you so long ! Did you ever love me or not?" asked Rosella

                    "You know darling! everything is fair in love and war!" Nicholas smirked.

                    "I wish that we would have never met in this lifetime and I pray, that we will not meet each other in the next one" screamed Rosella...
                    Even if I fall in love with someone new, it could never be the way I loved you...

                    https://www.webnovel.com/book/13290104306387005/YOUR-BETRAYING-LOVE

                    Thanks!

                      JVenior Really? Thanks. :) I hope it reads okay. I'm doing my best to keep it real and less cheesy. :smile_cat:

                        Chryiss

                        My review for you is done and posted. I read the first two chapters (technically first like 8 or so, but you separate them into segments) as I was heading off to bed last night. I had to refresh myself a bit today with names etc etc.

                        :)

                        MishaK Barely. XD

                        I have a habit of starting stories and leaving them on hiatus. So making it a habit to finish what I start. I did sacrifice two stories in the process.

                        I now have 4 x books I aim to finish this year. I'm not going to start anymore, that's for sure.

                        I use an outdated script writing software to keep track of my stories and characters. I write to a planner. Monday is the day I do To My Sunflower. I pump out as much writing as I can within a few hours. Tuesday is another story, same method and so forth.

                        Its very easy to get characters mixed up sometimes :grin:

                        No more reviews needed from me. Just review amongst thyselves. >3</

                        90751052 How could you? cries Review mine. Meow.

                        I'll go read yours.

                        Anyone else who wants to swap... Go ahead I love reading.

                          90751052 Mew~ Or maybe bzzz?

                          I’ve always wondered what the nothingisit4me creature is~ I thought it was a white tiger-bunny bee, but what is it actually?

                            StenDuring Thankyou. But if you feel like its too long and you want to stop reading, feel free to just drop a review based on the number of chapters you read.

                              XOMatsumaeohana Naeh, long stories usually take some 30k words to get into anyway. You have an unholy crapton of characters. It'll take me a while to get to know them ;)
