@Divinawrts Hi! I read the first 3 chapters of your story, and in my opinion, your writing style is currently developing itself, so although the sentences were clear and legitimate, they did not provide any depth. I felt that the story lacked flow and consistency, and the characters appeared one-dimensional because of it. I can share some of my favorite reads that have simple and to-the-point language and yet hold the command and attention of the reader.
Secondly, I found Sarah to be absurdly innocent, bordering on stupid - I mean, how can someone wish somebody happiness when she knows he is a habitual rapist and she herself is a victim of it It just felt like a blatant insult to the intensity and lasting trauma rape leaves. (Here, I acknowledge that this is a very subjective opinion; yet, I firmly felt the need to point out that rape messes people to the very core of themselves.)
Thirdly, I love the storyline of healing romance and justice to the perpetrator, but unfortunately, I don't read serious romance - it messes me up and keeps me up at night. However, if you ever write a fluffy rom-com, I am here for it!
Do text me again, if you want to ask counter questions or need a book to improve your writing style!
P.S. My writing is shit - but I have read books with spectacular language and felt as a writer - you would definitely want to improve because currently your writing isn't at the stage that it can adopt a style of writing but rather it fundamentally needs to be more descriptive and engaging
