One thing I find is that you're not keeping tense consistent.
If I could copy and past, I would show you what I mean, but basically, you write
I found... he sits... I came... He was... I forget.
All in the same paragraph.
Try to keep tense at least the same in one paragraph. Otherwise you end up with something that's not cohesive.
Another thing is that I notice you tend to throw a lot of references, but too many can be a bit distracting. Try to keep it balanced. Not every piece of dialogue needs to have an entire metaphor behind it.
Writings not bad, I would say it's decent, except for a few idiosyncrasies. The metaphors that you use aren't bad either... they feel very intriguing. If you fix your grammar a bit and keep the tenses more consistent, your writing would be really good. I'm impressed.
blurb, don't write mc/fl, just write their names.
first chapter:
info dump,
character introduction
Character characteristic dump instead of introduction,
Many syntax and capitalization mistakes.
It seems like you're writing more for a drama then you are for an actual book that people will read. Please remember people partially choose books because they like what you can do with writing that you can't do in other mediums. For movies/shows/dramas, it's cinematography and music and beautiful visuals. For things like comics, it's visuals n cool transitions. For books, it's the writing, the exposition, n the rhythm of every words.
Try working on your writing. Even if you want to write fast, it would be better to first make your writing look somewhat decent first.

AuHNG I have no idea why it is listed as a romance. It is not a romance book. It's fantasy adventure is how I have it as.

don't be shy to hit me with whatever u think. i will add your book to the library right now. please add mine too
mc is a gary su and sounds a bit annoying in the first chapter.
The intro is also not extremely compelling, and also sounds a bit too meta.
...He introduces the book.
the second chapter is borderline not understandable.
bunch of characters that aren't described just dumped into a scenario.
Readers can't read your mind.
some syntax errors
the structure of your novel is also weird.
You info dump in the beginning, and then switch to someone's pov every chapter.
the mc feels obnoxious...
you still have cap errors in the latest chapters.
Continue writing, I guess. The blurb is ok, tho. MC still sounds... terribly egoistic.

The earlier on I can fix some things, the better.
does your synopsis mean she's technically nonbinary? Lol, living as both genders.
the way you describe thing is kinda boring, punctuation and capitalization errors, you're telling too much in the first chapter.
You first chapter seems like an outline more than an actual chapter. The second chapter is better, but certain parts are still clunky.
You have a paragraph in ch 2 that could be sep into more paragraphs, it's too cluttered, talks ab too many things, and has too many tense changes and continuity errors. Going from one thing to another...
well you can say that.
but she does not change much outside except you know...
i have quite fun writing her changes but that chapters are not out yet.
yeah i know i try to improve all that as i go. i always think i am not giving enough info and then end up talking too much. juts like in real life.
good news is that your info dump incorporates well into the first chapter, so there's that, and the writing is pretty good. Setting is established well.
Still, certain parts feel like you're telling the story rather than actually engrossing the readers. 10th paragraph is probs the most jarring, simply because you go from general worldbuilding to focus on two kids and you write: two children could be seen, maybe write "were desperately seen...." instead of "could be seen" to reduce clutter and make it a bit more cohesive.
Check the cohesiveness of the 11th paragraph, think there's a mistake there.
also edit: I realize that it was in fact being told, but I still don't like the 10th paragraph haha.
your novel is really interesting.
thanks for the honesty really . sometimes people are embarrassed to do that.
will try to take your advices into consideration really thank you sensei. >.<
AuHNG thanks for the honesty, I read it over and changed some things.
AuHNG Hello, thank you for your review! It's my first time trying to write so I don't really know how to Ahah. I even stop at some point it's been months since I have stopped to write.... Any way many thanks for taking the time to read!!
