- Just because your audience target is 13-14 years old doesn't mean you need to write as if you are also that age.
- The audience is aware your characters are dying and do not need you to remind them every three sentences.
- Random quotes from famous people that don't specifically relate to your characters doesn't make your book deep.
- There is no need to recap song lyrics from every song. This isn't fanficton.
The premise had potential, but the execution was poor; which was further emphasized by the juvenility of the writing style. Unfortunately, the characters weren't likable enough to pull you through.
