Wattpad Review: The Request by @xkaydotx [Part 1]

Sometimes those spam emails aren't really spam. Sometimes they're pleading requests to help save lives. Julie, a journalist, learns that the world is far more complicated and violent than she could have ever imagined.

After receiving a request for her help on a certain situation, Julie packs her bags and leaves for Palestine, a land she's never heard of, nor ever been to. Julie does not know what to expect, or if she'll even find a decent story there. But one thing leads to another and Julie finds herself a set of friends, an exploding story, and trouble. Of course, little does she know of the events that will happen that will blow her mind.

Literally.

{Positives} Effin flawless! The author has a great visual description and I must say she nailed the Prologue!

{Inner-queen} Good god you had me there! With the boom! *Gasps, gasps* everywhere! Hands-down like totally! My heart seriously leaped out of my chest. PERFECT FIVE!

{Positives} Another great story-telling here! The author really showed the rough road of being a journalist-- writing articles that are not even their genre and being forced on ASAP your-so-dead deadlines. With a bit knowledge form the blurb, that email is sort of a source of stress for the viewers, which is so much of a plus point.

{Inner-queen} Oh my good lord!!! Answer the damn email! HAHAHA. Ofc, she doesn't know that yet. This chapter is loaded with the reality of being a damned writer and I love that!!! Great portrayal!

{Positives} I love how the author made the Palestine- Israelis war so interesting and interconnected to the story. Every chapter makes me wanna read more about what's going to happen next.

{Negatives} The Wiki article about the Palestine-Israeli was a bit TMI. Maybe, scattering them around in a mysterious way would be much better. Just a suggestion though.

{Inner-queen} We're getting something here! It's great that she finally opened her mind and answered the email, more so even searched about it.

The Quirky Novelist (Fern Risher) dedicated her life to read books. She believes that further reading may lead her to her forever book boyfriend and might help her in forging her writing skills as well. 

Her blog was made in order to (of course, eherm) promote her works and help other aspiring authors out there in the vast sea of terrifying sharks to spread out their fins and let their works be known.
