Thank you for choosing me to review your book!

Cover: 10/10

The book cover is absolutely stunning! I believe that you designed it yourself. It's original and eye catchy and presents the three main characters to potential readers at first glance. Color gradation and attention to detail are on point. Even the tagline is catchy.

Title: 09/10
You said early on in the book that the title is from a song. And so I'm guessing that the title comes into play later in the story. But as of right now, it is an intriguing title. It's not too long or too short.

Blurb: 10/10
The current blurb, according to me, is brilliant. It introduces the main characters without overcrowding it with the name dump. It's a good balance between getting the main plot across and still keeping the essential cards of the storyline hidden.

Opening/first impression: 07/10
Starting/opening a story with anticipation within characters is always a great start. It hooks the readers and makes them want to know further. At first, I was a bit confused as to why Sam was so hopeful about the concert tickets and then disappointed when he didn't get any. But then I found out that he wanted to surprise Niti, which was, firstly, very sweet and secondly, very ideal boyfriend-like.

However, I felt that the first chapter, except for the first few paragraphs, was very plain. There doesn't need to be anything dramatic happening for it to be perfect, But as the chapter progressed, the story didn't progress with it. And if your chapter word count is to be taken into consideration which is decently high, I'm shocked that the only scenes we got are Sam and his friends and a little texting between Sam and Niti.

My suggestion would be either add some more substance to the opening or shorten it.

Plot: 06/10
With respect to the plotline, I dig fanfiction-driven books. I eat up those literary pieces in a day. I do believe that Niti loves Sam and then probably starts questioning her love once she meets her idol as well. I mean... very relatable. I would have second thoughts about it too if my relationship was kind of falling apart.
That being said, the narrative kind of drags on and on for quite some time with nothing really happening. For two chapters, all we establish is that Sam and Niti's relationship isn't at its best stage and there are personal conflicts each of them is going through. Those two chapters could be compressed into a single one, by doing that, it will give the story two benefits: first,  it would get the point across pretty quickly and second, it would give the first chapter more substance as I mentioned before.

Dialogues: 09/10
Grammar-wise, I didn't find any mistakes so far in the story. Although another round of editing would be appreciated. But apart from that, the dialogues in terms of character personality building were quite good. They got the point across and carried the scenes forward. We get to discover the individual voices of characters and hence understand them more effectively.

Characters: 06/10
From what I got to read, Niti is an independent girl, in control of her life and choices. She genuinely loves Sam and doesn't really want to break up or anything just because he is reluctant towards a commitment.
Sam, too, is cut from the same cloth as Niti. He loves her, wants to treat her like a queen but doesn't have the resources for it.
Even if I didn't get to the part where Niti and Jimmie actually meet in person. I'm assuming Jimmie would be that character who sends Niti into the rabbit hole of questioning her life and choices. Because that's the impression I got from the Blurb, which was somewhat vague.
In general, the characters are written and built well. Though at times they seem one dimensional, we could read past that by thinking that this is a fictional world.

Quality of conflict: 08/10
Originality-wise, it's not something new to readers. The stakes aren't high. In situations like this, the drama needs to be immense to keep the readers interested and encourage them to keep reading. So I hope that's where the story is headed.

Writing skills: 08/10
The writing style used is straightforward and easy to read. For readers who are looking for a light, clear and accessible style of language, this story is perfect for them.
Sentence structure and paragraph breaking are done at just the right moments. As I said for dialogues, another round of editing could eliminate what little errors I could spot.

Reader enjoyment: 09/10
Personally, I would really enjoy this story much better with the suggested changes put into action. As a storyline, it's a strong one. It's a great concept, But the execution could be improved.

Total: 74/100
Other suggestions: I don't have many suggestions, only the ones I mentioned above. One thing I would say is that revise the outline of the story once more and remove the filler scenes and events. That being said, the plotline is interesting at its core. I can assure you it's a hit! Apart from that, good luck!
