The story is currently preparing to transition onto Kindle Unlimited on August 1st
"Survival of the fittest is easier said than done...why couldn't I have been reborn a bit bigger, huh?"
If waking up in a new world wasn't bad enough, an idealistic teen starts her new life as a newborn dragon not by being embraced by a loving family, but having to escape two hungry kobolds wanting some grilled lizard for breakfast. Now, status screens obscure her vision in a hostile forest filled with vicious magical monsters, as two concerning Titles welcome her to her new life.
Equipped with fragmented memories from her past life and the game-like mechanics of her new reality, the young dragon must face trials and tribulation, undeterred by the reaper's scythe inches from her neck. Despite her challenges, she is determined to find civilization. For nothing will stop her from fulfilling her one true desire: to become an Idol.

It seems pretty good so far but the MC is inconsistent, also the "new yorker" veiwpoint being used as imagery doesnt really work. How am I supposed to know how cold a New York winter is? Main character seems to be around 12 years old mentally, and wants to be an idol, however the next moment she starts casually swearing, this is my personal favorite line, "my house may as well be made of sh*t and piss at this point". You would think that a girl aspiring to be an idol would avoid swearing in general, especially casually, not to mention reaching redneck level......
Edit: The lack of character growth has made me drop this novel. I simply cant enjoy the mc's veiwpoint. You would think that after almost dying to a certain type of creature twice she would learn to at least dislike it. However she has a greater conviction to kill her first prey (a rabbit) than fight the kobolds that are the only enemy to endanger her life so far. I just cant think of her as cute when she as a singer and wannabe idol has the lack of vocabulary to say "sh*t sh*t shiiit!" And she doesnt fall into the category of a delinquent or cruel type either since she has such adversion to killing her enemies even a month later.
Shes not cute
Character "development" is repeated and has no real substance because she will just go back to how she was and have the same "development"

4.5 Stars [Round Down] (4 Stars, +.5 reread bonus [Rereading the story 3+ times])
(Made at Chapter 363) [Scribble Hub at Chapter 81]So yes I've this story on other sites and I've enjoyed it.
It starts off very in very monster LitRPG style, where MC is trying to survive. And if you like that but as the name suggest the MC isn't just going to a murder hobo monster. However there is fighting and a lot of it. Just cause MC wants to be an idol who sings doesn't mean the world that has it fair shar... okay a LOT of problems, which the MC gets slightly wrapped up in, before taking the initiative choosing to deal with them herself.
Spoilers for some plot points I like. These aren't on scribble so be warned.
MC accepting being a dragon, this is slow, but still enjoyable. Adding onto this point MC and her new mum when they finally start hanging out is great..... Okay I was going to say more but other details are way too spoilery for what I want to write in a review (Yes I know this is in spoiler quotes, but still, it hasn't even happen on SH yet).
My really only issue is that most of my favourite parts, well don't happen early on. Not that the early parts are bad, they're not, and the help build the foundation for later. But my favourite parts only start to happen as the crew forms. Speaking of the crew, the story has a pretty good side cast, each growing and developing as they deal with their own issues.
Overall I really like this story.

There are some issues with the way that humans are first introduced, and more importantly, I have a lot of issues with some evil stuff the gods in this world did that gets completely glossed over. That made me feel frustrated and I dropped it.
However, other than that this is pretty good, and I did enjoy it before getting to that point, I recommend giving it a try.

Tl;dr at the bottom. I rate this five stars. Don't know why, but I can't figure out how to set the score. It's my first ever review on this site after all. Let's see how this works. Edit: Nvm, it worked.
So, I've been following this story for quite a while now. Well over a year to be more accurate. And I think it's about bloody time I post my opinion on this story. I can confidently say, this is by far one of the best stories I've read on this site. This may not be the case if you don't like fantasy or isekai, but I'm a sucker for both, so I'm a bit biased in that regard.
First, let's talk about the premise. I have to admit, I wasn't that sold on the whole idol thing at first. And it does take a while until it is really implemented into the story. But the way it is done works incredibly well. The author managed to make being an idol not just some side gig for the MC, but have it be a major part of her skill set. For example,
she later learns to play what's essentially her own boss music, trapping enemies in an arena while buffing herself and debuffing them.
Second, the characters. Again, it takes a while until they come into play, but they are a great deal of fun. And all of the members of the main cast have personality. Everyone has their own quirks and troubles. And everyone grows. It might take time, but hey, do you know anyone that can shake of trauma like they would throw off their jacket? I highly doubt that. Character development takes time, it's not something that can be done in 2 chapters.
Third, there's... a lot more I could talk about, but that requires going into way more detail, which would stretch this already way too long review even further. So, as a final statement, I can only recomend giving this story a chance. And don't just give up after a few chapters. You'll miss out on the many fun adventures and characters that show up later.
Tl;dr - A great story with a unique premise. Starts off slow but it's worth. Well designed world, power system and characters. Absolutely worth a read.

A fun monster evolution story at the start, that transitions into singing and slowly building up a band crew. And getting involved in continental politics.
Status blocks do get gigantic, author does a good job at cutting them down. Song lyric edits are fun if you open up the song link... don't try to guess from the meter, heh.

Really good early on but after chapter 30, every chapter just starts to feel like filler. Im pretty sure they have been heading to the elf kingdom for over half the novel by this point.
