    Its very entertaining, i thoroughly enjoyed it, but its a shame it seems to be discontinued when it has so much potential, especially when the story started getting really interesting. I hope the author finishes the book. Id give it an 8/10. And thats only because of basic spelling mistakes that everyone does, and the fact that its been a year since last publish. Definitely worth a read

    At first I was a bit concerned about the story taking a lot of inspiration from BTDM, but after some time they diverge more and the story becomes really good. There are spelling and grammar issues, but they aren’t too egregious and the main character is believable. There is just one minor plot hole so far and at some points I would have liked to get more information about how certain things work, so I could plot/plan along with the characters, but overall this is a nice story with great potential and original ideas based in a tried and tested concept.

    The story is about reincarnated individuals, which are reborn in a fantastical new world. The story follows Alea, who was a doctor in her former life. In her new life as an elf, she can use her extensive medical knowledge to become a powerful healer.
    The story is very well thought out, which you can clearly see in later chapters. It gets a little dark at the beginning, which may put off some readers, but Alea works on the problems that lie ahead. It's great to see her grow and piece by piece find solutions to the difficulties that throw themselves in her path.
    The characters are well fleshed out and easy to distinguish from each other. The world seems well thought out and is slowly brought closer to the reader in the course of the story. It is very enjoyable to read this novel and the grammar is also pretty good, so you have a smooth reading flow.
    This novel is action packed and it's always exciting to see what happens next. The protagonist does not let herself be beaten down and develops quickly. I personally like this very much, because I like strong protagonists and like to follow how they develop.
    Overall, I can only extremely recommend this novel, it is super well written and I am already curious how it continues!

    This is a really well thought out fantasy world with reincarnation tropes. Nothing to bad but it's dark, from slavery, abuse, a bit of mind break and some heavy violence all back to back. I enjoy that but if your sensative you probably won't . If you don't mind or enjoy the character development that kind of thing gives like I do. Then it is a great read can't wait for more chapters

    I am very sad there were only 7 chapters to read. Despite being decent in length, it is simply not enough for me to be satisfied.
    That being said I wouldn't recommend this story to people disliking their protagonists having any form of hardship.
    In only seven chapters our protagonist:
    - is soulnapped. (with everone else in the world most probably)
    - has their (new) father murdered in front of their eyes.
    - is reduced into slavery with their grieving mother.
    - has said slavery be magically enforced.
    - has their mother be targeted (only in words for now) by the lustful son of their captor.
    - has said captor be the only guarantor of their safety (and dignity) in the golden cage they are forced to call home.
    Having read the available chapters in one sitting, it is quite a lot to take. I am personnally fine with it, but I can see why some readers would mind it. Especially the loss of agency.
    That is why I believe people sensitive to such topics should abstain from reading this.
    If you are not among those then give it a try. It's definetly above average in my opinion.

    There's a strong initial premise here, a doctor dying in an apocalypse, and reincarnating as an elf. The setting is fantasy, with some LitRPG aspects, and a system. The protagonist has plenty of advantages in this new world. Her mental awareness at a young age leads to abnormal growth within the system that governs this world. Also, due to a perk of being an elf, she's now theoretically immortal, as long as she isn't killed.
    However, recent developments have made this story unenjoyable. I find this arc distasteful, and the profound current lack of character agency cannot be glossed over by shallow stat gains.

    ★★★★ 3.5
    The first story that I've read that has a "protagonist reincarnated in a system world grows up" premise that didn't fuck it up royally (unlike "Singer Sailor Merchant Mage" and "Soul of a Warrior") so kudos to that.
    It has nice drama and no dealbreaking grammar mistakes.
    A thing I would warn about is that there are some developments that I see critically in regards to the choices of the protagonist (see: Alice) but there is currently hope that that story beat will get a satisfactory conclusion in the future.
    The slavery bit is not much of a dealbreaker for me because she keeps a lot of her interal agency, she is not mind controlled and is actively making decisions to further her goal of freedom.
    With the inclusion of an old friend there are also already established long term goals.
    Overall a nice read.

    ★★★ 3.0
    This story is a lot of things, but what it isn't is reflective of the synopsis or the first chapter or two. This is both misleading and the story actually told is worse.
    At core, the story rehashes the same point over and over. The protagonist is traumatized in some way, usually psychological, and then she either is comforted over it by another or does so to herself. This happens over and over again, as some of the worst deprivations are visited upon her (which I can't mention because spoilers). And that's not including being enslaved still through chapter 25 with at least several more chapters before she escaped (if ever).
    The other major recurring theme is a very strong misandry. Through chapter 25, I don't think there is a single living male character who is not a horrible person, both generally and in their relationships with women. Indeed, the only healthy (-ish) relationships shown are between women, either romantic or platonic.
    Both of the above themes are so strongly engrained in the story that I can't recommend it to you prospective reader unless both interest you.

    I believe the review title says it all, but there are a couple other problems with this story.  The pacing is way too fast and things are not explaied well to the reader (or at all really).  The author could have built up the background of the story letting us in on the conflict, politics and such without letting Alea in on it.  There just isn't enough story written to get us invested in the characters before it all goes south.  If your into mindless savagry, slavery and cruelty then this story is for you because without much preable it goes right into it.  For me it's an easy drop.  Had the author metioned slavery in the description I wouldn't have even read the prolog.
