Mekhi

I awarded this book an ambiguous rating because I am ambiguous about it. First, do not expect Standard American English, it's not here. And do not look for help in understanding from the punctuation. Parts of this reads like an 8th grader's writing- simple, direct sentences, monotonous, boring. Other parts achieve high school standards. Punctuation is all over the place-- unneeded commas, no commas in sentences crying out for them, and periods scattered at random. This, naturally, results in fragments and run on sentences. At times I thought I was reading bad AI composition. There is a good deal of creativity in here but it should come as no surprise that it ends on a cliffhanger, and a fairly muddled one at that.

The characters in Mekhi have so much potential. It feels somewhat young with a lot of grownup spice. What does this work no justice is the large abundance of grammatical mistakes. Words misspelled, no punctuation. These mistakes rob the story of its value. If the author, editor and publisher have so little care for the authors work, why should we? Please, rerelease this after you show your work the respect it deserves. Punctuation will give your characters thoughts and conversations validity. Otherwise, it feels childish. Not trying to be rude. Just giving an honest opinion. Please, fix your world of Quinn and Mekhi. They deserve it.

This book would be perfect if It didnt loose the reader in some places. A couple of times I had no idea who was talking or that there was a new character being introduced. It was like a page was missing every now and again. Other than that this was a good story. I loved the humor and laughed out loud.
