... I know how this looks.
I don't snoop. I really don't. I don't check Kefe's phone or messages, and I don't believe he's cheating on me. I trust my gut that much.
This was really an accident...

To be honest I really enjoyed this story even though it's length was quite disappointing. Uju as a main character was someone I could understand with ease as you fleshed her out properly. Unfortunately I can't say the same for the other characters. Due to the short length of the story, there's not enough time to actually understand the other characters or feel something for them and it was quite unfortunate. To be honest I feel that this story would have been a lot better than it is now if it had gone on for a little while longer .i wasn't able to enjoy the mystery and thrill in the story but to how far it went by. The whole reveal about about Irikefe being the reason the villain in the story didn't have as much impact as it was supposed to due to the fact that I don't know him so well to actually be surprised that he is a bad guy . Anyways apart from the story length which left a lot lacking in the story ,I enjoyed the grammar as it had very few errors and character interactions was actually enjoyable.

I love the personal feel of this story. Its not often you find someone so conflicted, to the point where it can carry the story. But the writer in this instance does it, and does it well. That, combined with the very few mistakes that may be found makes this an excellent overall great read. All i can say up to this point is to keep it up!

I know it's selfish but I urge you. Please, please, please. Lengthen the story. The first chapter got me hooked alright. You describe your FL really well. And the story plot. It reminded me of "The Guardian" or "Safe haven" by Nicholas Sparks. With the two-faced personality, hiding nasty character beneath the kind and mature facade, seriously it's awesome. And the mystery, the thrill, you laid it all so well. And as the story goes on, you heighten the tension. But in the last chapter, you dropped the bomb too soon. You left you're readers hanging like, wait, that's it? If it's not too much to ask, I urge you to lengthen it. The plot was totally awesome! And ending it just like that won't do your captivating plot any justice.

The book was nice, but was too short. The characters were intriguing and the story was mysterious enough to keep you going. Maybe you could expound on the plots and scenes to make it more interesting. Keep writing.

The story started off well, with the protagonist ‘explaining’ what forced her to become that way. Definitely it has potential ! But here are some of my issues: 1. Grammar— I found several grammatical errors like run-on sentences, missing commas, and an occasional incorrect capitalization. My overall advice is to capitalize all first words in a dialogue, be aware to place comma after phrases in the beginning, and don’t always use commas— instead, periods or semicolons 2. Characters— Now I do like the FL to a certain degree; she seems to be a character worth sympathizing with. However, I found the other side characters, and especially the husband in the later chapters, to be rushed and not fit the story as I expected. I guess a way to make them more memorable is to post chapters entailing their interactions with the FL, making an impact on her or whatnot. 3. Repetition— I found a lot of ‘something’ in the passage overall, which, in all honesty, is correct grammatically. But I would enjoy it more if you could describe it differently. I know this is a bit into the specifics, but I really hope you get the picture. 4. Story development— As I mentioned earlier, with the characters not being fleshed out, I found the later chapters a bit rushed while the beginning was decently paced. And I began to confuse myself what was truly happening; it was like one surprising thing after another: sadness, suspicion, murder, and a quick save by the pastor. Altogether, I believe this could use some more work. Despite all this, I can tell you are trying your best to convey the story, and I hope my review could assist you in your journey. After all, we all start from somewhere ! Keep it up, Author !

he story has an intriguing beginning, starting with showing every aspect of the protagonist quickly bringing us into context. The narration and description is good, especially to understand what is happening and what the protagonist sees. The statistics are well explained giving a good playing environment. It also has a certain mystery that prompts you to continue reading to discover what happens and who is responsible for the events.

The story was short and was completed. It was a roller coaster ride of emotions as I have read it. The fluency of the writer in English was splendid as far as I have read. Mysterious enough to get you hooked! All I can say was make the story a bit of thirty to forty chapters long to make it at least more engaging. It was the length of other short stories that were made into a movie. So all in all, a great job well done!

The book has a suspense element. You can relate to the girl and it keep you hooked. Language is simple. Though there are some minor mistakes but the grip of story is strong enough to ignore them. Looking forward for new updates.
