Description

In this episode of Kissing Books Critique, we dive into the art of the slow burn—how to build tension, keep characters at odds, and make every stolen glance count. We tackle passive voice, repetition, and the sneaky ways setting (or lack of it) can impact a scene. Plus, a broody hero fights his feelings, a teasing heroine turns up the heat, and Jenna finally hits her storytelling groove. But can we resist the urge to overanalyze every single word? Tune in to find out!
