Was kinda fun at first, but I dropped this. I get the the MC has a knowledge cheat due to past life as an engineer, but there are so many points where it's beyond my ability to suspend my disbelief, on top of the awful pacing and rushed writing.Spoiler
When she makes a digital camera in a world without computers, even if you know the structure of the device you still need to have firmware/software to run on the hardware. And she also makes a piano, and apparently knows how to play 1000+ songs on it from memory. I mean it was kinda believable/alright when she was making the camper van because analog automobiles are simple (diesel engines are almost entirely mechanical, and any electrical components are just sensors), but come on man.
[collapse]But yeah, the pacing is absolutely terrible, sometimes to the point where you're wondering if there were chapters missing because of the awkward way events are 'glossed over' instead of being fully fleshed out and written properly. One second you're doing X and planning to do Y, then next second Y is already done and you're moving on to Z. That sort of bad pacing, where it feels like it's skipping sections even though it isn't. I honestly don't know why the TL picked this up.
