TITLE
3.5%

The title wasn't new to me anymore. I could also say that it didn't sound so fresh. Marami na kasi akong na-encounter na ganito since I started reading in Wattpad years back. Pero walang kaso sa 'kin 'yon dahil hindi ako 'yong tipo ng tao na hinuhusgahan ang libro base sa title. The challenge instead was this: what could possibly differentiate your story from millions of bad boy stories in this platform? I was not actually asking you to change your title because I knew it was upon your choice. I was instead expecting something unique from this story in contrary to the typical title. Naibigay kaya ang expectation na 'yon? Well, let's see.

BOOK COVER
4%

The book cover was good and catchy. Maayos na nababasa ang title pati na rin ang pangalan ng author sa upper portion ng cover. Visible rin ang brief quote sa bandang ibaba. May connection din ang image ng lalaki-na unang tingin pa lang ay may bad boy vibe na-sa title at plot ng story. However, here was the downside, the background color, the dark aura, to be specific didn't suit your chosen genre. Naging pang-general fiction kasi ang dating nito instead of teen fiction.

Recently, I'd been reading tips on how to suit your book covers to your genre, and one rule of the thumb that I bumped into was the connection of colors to it. Since yours was under teen fiction, I suggest using backgrounds with lighter hues. Examples for such were pastels like pale yellow or green. Ang mga kulay rin na 'to ang nagsi-signify sa magaan at refreshing romance na karaniwang theme ng teen fiction.
