That could be fixed later?
I had just finished my YA cyberpunk/portal fantasy, with an unrequited love and self-hate subplot.
I'm having a hard time rationalizing all the decapitation references. I'm thinking strongly, of reducing it to only a couple every ten chapters (of twenty five chapters).
As it is, it regretfully feels more like a slasher, which isn't exactly the take away I'm wanting. More accurately an SF romance that focuses on style and character arc. And yes I'm aware of how a lot of YA has a lot of death. But I'm wanting it to be a quieter sort of dystopia with less death.
