I usually enjoy infrastructure/zombie-survival novels, but I lost interest in this one after a while. Maybe because the FL's character was a bit too inconsistent (and she became more and more OP as time went on, making the survival aspect seem meaningless), or maybe it's the lackluster romance development (if the survival aspect became more and more meaningless, the existence of the ML could only be said to be even more meaningless lmfao.) It could also be because the MTL was a bit difficult to understand after a while. Whatever the case is, I thought this novel was okay, but it was definitely not as good as I was initially expecting (I had really high expectations at first, since the author seemed to enjoy playing with character psychology, but after a while, it all went pooof).__________SUMMARY: The FL, Fu Erdie, is a very normal 24 year old woman. She spends most of her days in her home, drawing, taking care of her dog, etc. When the zombie apocalypse suddenly arrived (with absolutely no warning whatsoever), she completely fell apart. She has no confidence in surviving through the end times at all, and this sense of inferiority begins to wither away at her vitality. If not for her encountering both fortunate and unfortunate encounters again and again, she might have died early -- which would have led to her missing her very powerful and flexible non-attribute ability (which she at first believed was attributed to the objects in her home rather than to herself).Then, while exploring her unique ability, the FL will gather members for her base and launch infrastructure building in her community along with the ML (who, as mentioned, is a pretty invisible existence XD. Just a little better than the dog, Ink, who features a lot at first but quickly fades from view once the plants come in).________THOUGHTS: Personally, I didn't think it was that good. But that's because I was tricked to having too-high expectations at first LMFAO. If I went into it not expecting much, I think my tolerance for the little disadvantages that the story has wouldn't be so bad. After all, it still includes the infrastructure and survival elements that I like. It's just that some character development and relationship aspects were handled very clumsily. And, oh, there's also the setting too, which is not only whimsical but is very difficult to understand in MTL (especially during the planning and action moments). ALL IN ALL, not bad. My current impression is not so good, but I intend to take a look at it again another time in the future to see if I enjoy the read more the second time around.
