About this Gig
I'm a developmental editor, but offer beta reading in my favourite genres: romance, (cosy) fantasy, YA and thriller. As a beta reader, my primary focus lies in how a reader reacts to the manuscript. I'll provide feedback on what I enjoyed, what I found lacking or confusing, any potential plot holes, and areas where character development, story development and dialogue could be improved.
Essentially, a beta read serves as a test run to gauge how readers may respond to your book before it hits the market.
Examples of questions I might address:
- Did the story immediately draw me in? If not, what could be improved?
- Were there any parts of the story that were unclear or confusing? If so, which ones?
- What was my impression of the setting/world-building?
- Did the characters feel realistic and relatable?
- Were there any parts of the story where it felt like it was dragging? How could this be improved?
- Did the flow and pace of the story feel effective?
- Did the dialogue sound natural and authentic to the characters?
- Was the ending satisfying for me as a reader?
In this gig, I focus on annotations, but a brief reader's report is included. I'm also willing to answer a questionnaire!

I was really impressed with Sahra’s feedback. She helped identify narrative flaws that, once addressed, will guide me in crafting a more riveting story for my readers to understand and enjoy.
