Overall Feedback
The letter addresses all the bullet points but lacks the required formality. Grammar is mostly accurate with a good range of structures. Coherence and cohesion are adequate but could be improved with better transitions. Lexical resource is sufficient but could be more varied.

Hi there,
I hope
you're
doing well! My name's Ed, and I saw your ad in the local newspaper about a part-time job at your bookstore
. I wanted to drop you a quick note to say I'm
really
interested in the job and would love to tell you why I'd
be a great fit.First off, I love
books
! I've
always been a bookworm, and the idea of working
in a bookstore
sounds amazing
. Getting to be around books
and helping people find their next great read is something I'd
really enjoy.As for my experience,
I've
worked
at a small library before, where I got to organize books
and help visitors find what they were looking for. I also volunteered at a school library, where I helped kids pick out books
and ran some fun literary events. These experiences have given me a good handle on what it takes to work
in a bookstore
.I'm
available for an interview anytime next week. Just let me know what works
best for you, and I'll
be there!
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Ed
