I love this story. It is well-written, captivating, and just makes me want to jump when I see a new chapter is out. The cliffhangers that come with the change in POV in every chapter can be jarring at first, but I think it really lends itself as an easy way to incorporate suspense.
Style: As I said, the constant change in POV can be hard to get used to, but I understand the necessity of it. Honestly, it gives the story a unique feel I haven't seen before, and it's not a bad thing! The author's writing is easy to read and enhances the story, rather than take away from it.
Story: I love the way the lore is introduced. From the Prologue to the bits and pieces sprinkled out through the chapters, there is no info dump that seems to be the downfall for some of the other stories on this site. As for the plot... well, it's simply alluring. The world is well thought out, the background is established, and the goal of the story is crystal clear.
Grammar: Almost no issues here! Of course, I'm not a professional editor and I also haven't been looking too hard for any grammar mistakes, but if there are any, they don't affect comprehension. If it isn't noticeable, then to me, it's a fine story. Shoot me for my less-than-critical eye, but man, this is pretty polished!
Characters: The only qualm I have is with Annabella... She seems the most one-dimensional out of the main cast, and it bugs me since a good part of the story comes from her point of view. The characters have backstories that are easy to sympathize with, which in turn make their motivations clear. I don't wanna say more lest I spoil something, but they are all very interesting and I can't wait to see what happens to them later on! If I really wanted to be a bit nitpicky, I would say that a lot of the characters have similar personalities and that they should have more unique aspects. Maybe it's a product of the writing, but that's how it seems to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
To sum, DON"T
