I think sometimes critiques that I get from beta readers and some of my teen readers can hit something on the spot with what's not working---or when it's boring. :) Jeannine: I definitely agree.

I always tell people I am giving you this feedback as a reader. This is my gut reaction as the common reader. Sometimes that is just as useful as all the technical stuff you can get into.

I'd still like to improve my critiquing skills. Usually I know where a problem lies in a manuscript, but sometimes it's hard to express or pinpoint.

I'm sure with your two critique partners, you are giving good feedback, Jemi. I think when you learn to give a good critique, you help your own writing.
