Are you tired of sweet, charming yuri novels? Are you ready to see a girl beaten down rise up stronger, save her own damn self and the girl she's starting to love? Well then do I have the book for you!
The unfortunately named Flum Apricot is part of a team of chosen heroes off to save the world. Sadly, her only special ability permanently reduces her stats to zero, making her useless to her team. A savage betrayal turns her whole world upside down and then... well... then it gets weird. This book is like Sexiled meets Grand Guignol. I …
This was an awesome book. It feels like an isekai but it is not. It's also really awesome to see really crappy people get their comeuppance. There's one person in particular I want to see get his!
3.75 stars Dark, lesbian, fantasy light novel? I'm here I wasn't sure what to expect when I went into this one, though by the end of the first chapter, it felt almost too edgy (for my tastes at least). That said, it was also really addicting. There was a lot of fun moments, interesting and even thrilling action that keeps …
I have been wanting to read this for years but I didn't think I would get into it. Flum is selected to be a part of a group of heroes to defeat the Demon King. Unfortunately because of her power being Reversal she is unable to be any help to the group but she tries in other ways. Tired of …
This concept is very isekai and yet, it's not, which is nice. Been reading a lot of light novels that really don't need that isekai element lately and I'm glad this didn't fall into that trap. This story is very bloody and grimdark so make sure you're into that. The little romance is very sweet, too, though I'd prefer the …
Kinda nice
iconic legendary brilliant as the author said in the afterward: _the story is basically a mishmash of all of my interests: fantasy, lesbian romance, horror and fight scenes_. And it's a very accurate way to describe the story. ROLL OVER AND DIE is a kickass female lead fantasy novel, starring Flum, who is 16 years old and is sold to …
Solid debut. Pretty heavy on dark themes such as slavery, gore, horror, corruption and the list goes on. The world is shit, the people that live in it are shit, but the series has a certain uplifting tone that distances it from the grimdark genre. Oh yeah, they sold me this series as grimdark, but it is not quite grimdark …
Ok so you’re like wow this guy is a jerk, then it gets worse and worse. I just wanted to punch that stuck up, jellos, loud mouth, frik’n creepy, supid face jean right in the frink’n face and the squares. In the first 10 mins of reading - she make you hate a character so well and in such a …
A very graphic but good horror novel. I liked the way they worked the sapphic elements into the protagonist's motivations. I enjoyed how much the protagonist grows in various ways emotionally from the horrors they experience. This would be a 5-star light novel to me but the fact the main characters are 16 and 10 years old felt necessary and …
It’s a chuunibyou grimdark fantasy, and the lead is called Flum Apricot, and her sidekick is called Milkit. Ok, yes, I read it because of the names.

Flum Apricot is deadweight. The adventurer party to which she belongs yields two renowned bladesmiths, a famous sage, a brilliant spellcaster, a vengeful cleric, and a skilled archer; and yet, amid this all-star team, blessed by the gods, stands Flum, whose stats ring zeros from top to bottom. Everyone, including little Flum, is left scratching their heads as to why …
From start to finish this light novel is a joy to read, I was so hooked on the Webnovel that I squealed with like a school girl when I saw that it was finally getting picked up over here with PHYSICAL COPIES! (that’s a big deal to me because there were other stories that I liked that were only getting …
I have so many words that I would like to say about this but that would require a draft in my computer and I do not have my computer bc I am on vacation. Short summary of my feelings though: this is literally so good and I hate that it doesn't have a broader fan base. It could be compared …
Hmmm , well it was okay? I honestly wish I didn't buy the physical copy because even though it looks really nice the writing inside is too ..dull?? I was wishing for something more complex and less childish... I MEAN IM A LITERAL CHILD BUT YKNOW WHAT I MEAN?? it was hard to read bc the plot wasn't anything special …
\-I'll come back at a later date to give a full review, but in short: 3.5 rating from me I liked this well enough. It was competent, though perhaps a little bogged down by focusing on the world mechanics/building in an almost clinical manner. However, those mechanics were interesting enough to me. I also don't feel like I got to …
The whole master and slave power dynamic makes the romance problematic in this one. And, it is a flimsily contrived romance to begin with. There are elements of growth and empowerment that are positive, but largely superficial. The combat is flat and repetitive—Flum, our main character, will likely be dismembered to some extent in every encounter henceforth it seems. It’s …
Written after finishing volume 2: The budding lesbian romance elements are fantastic in this series (probably my favorite scenes), the MC is great, and is loads of fun to follow-- and the underlying plot coming into focus has got me pretty solidly hooked by the end of v2. If you can put up with some kinda dark plot points rearing …
This was a disastrous read. This has the most 0815 cliché anime writing style ever, which was painful to read. The main character (once again) has a super powerful hidden ability that nobody ever understood but now it makes them able to be more powerful than anybody else... Whenever I thought things were getting interesting I was let down. The …
i didn't have much expectations when started reading it but i can't deny how much the story has captivated me along the way, definitely thanks to the action and horror – something that rpg fiction lacks, imo. must admit i still haven't been able to get attached to flum x milkit romantic plot, which i hope to see more improvement …
I liked it. I love a revenge story, then you add yuri and horror, I'm hooked. I can't wait to see her revenge against Jean. For now I will have to be satisfied with her revenge against the slave trader and Dean's goons. Loved Flum and Milkit's relationship. I also loved her reuniting with Eterna and finding out Jean lied …
