Alright, here is my review after reading all of the chapters posted so far: (Warning: I'm very straight forward in general, please do not take this personally) Writing Quality 4 star: There are some quite glaring mistakes in the writing, be it punctuation or sentence structure. However, they don't make up most of the novel, and the places where the errors occur are not of too much importance. Stability of Updates: Automatic 5 star Story development 5 stars: From what there is so far, the story and plot are unfolding itself quite nicely, with the system introduced, and the mc putting to use her previous life's skills to survive in this mysterious world she is in. Character Design: Here is the part I don't get. Some might say her character is likable, which she is, but she isn't relatable. And that's fine too, at least for comedy novels, with her over-reacting to losing her cookie and stuff like that. But. The author implies that the mc is much deeper than she seems, and we need to know that without the author telling us, from the mc's little habits and the way she views things. But that isn't present in this novel. The author says to us that the mc is a realist who puts her survival above all else because she understands the importance of life, but the mc doesn't seem to care about her life at all! The way she's willing to fight to death a monster that she has no idea the strength of for a cookie, shows that she values that cookie over her life. In addition, with the incident of the strange monster killing the 2 people that the mc met, the mc actually said, "at least i don't have extra baggage (wording might differ)." No matter how you look at it, that's not something a cautious person would say, because again, she doesn't know the strength of the monster, and right now, the only people that can tell her about the world she is in are gone (Oh, right. not to mention, the mc hasn't asked about this point at all). In addition, according to the text, the man(one of the people she met) was pretty strong. The heck, why would you want a strong person to die when you can be carried by them?! Besides, the mc doesn't know how powerful she is right now. To take chances like this with her life, courting death like this, goes against her character that we've been told about. World Background 3 star: So far, I haven't seen any world-building. We see that the mc went from this garden to a snowy mountainous region(?), but we don't know anything else about the world, besides the fact that there are blonde-haired individuals that have Chinese names, and there are monsters. We don't know if this is a wuxia cultivation novel, or a more knights and magic novel... etc. Besides, the system is a mother making system(??). I feel like the mc accepted that way too quickly, especially since she's against having kids, and I don't even get what that really means, and what that has to do with the powers she is given. Of course, this can be improved later on, but as of 8 chapters, this is the point in which the story is. Conclusion: I reiterate, this review may not be accurate for the entirety of this novel, but this is what I see from reading 8 chapters. My criticism is quite harsh, but I don't really enjoy sugarcoating my words. The best I can say is good luck and keep writing! Besides, 3.8 is above average, so kudos to you on that, author sama!

Ayeee, thanks for the honest review ♥ As for mc's behaviour... There's a reason for it, which I of course, can't reveal as of now. As for grammatical mistakes.. I'm too lazy to fix them 😂 sorry
