honestly this is just Ok. It's not the best story but I can't dislike it. So 1 vote for you. Still not invested in the MC, plus the story needs rewrites to inject more stakes and characterization.
Thank you Leo_Hex. These are exactly the type of comments that I'm looking for. And by the way, what do you mean by stakes and characterization? This is my first novel so I have no idea what you're talking about.
