Shameless author 5 star review here. I’m very good at patting myself on the back, but hear me out!The beginning of this story starts out completely different to where it will be going. The prose will get better I promise! X1’s brain gets progressively more developed. If you want more of a preview of what the story quality will look like, chapter 7 is the first look into the world outside of X1’s perception.Second, I love my characters. Each one is unique and full of love, life, spite and attitude. There’s a unique charm to a lot of them, though a few of them might grind your gears. And third… I really love my story. And if you give it a chance, I think you might too.
