About the book

I never thought that an ordinary questionnaire could lead to such a result. “What kind of result?” you may ask. I'm happy to answer. I found myself in another world, with no personal memories of my past life. That’s why I now have a new name, a new body, and, to top it all off — magic. And what awaits me isn’t just a new life and new knowledge, but a heap of adventures, encounters, and trials. Well then, Fate — challenge accepted. Let’s see what you’ve prepared for me. “Welcome to a new world.” It was with this phrase that the adventures of Yata Olshe began in a world that was to become her home.

    Hello! I came to you from the marathon. But for such a work, 5 pages read is too little)) Already on the first pages, we are thrown into a new world together with the heroine. And at first, I felt lost, perhaps just like the heroine. For me, there was too much info dump. Although I understand why it was done this way. A quick briefing, grab your things, and out you go)) And then all the newcomers can figure it out on their own) I really liked the descriptions)

    “The first chapter has nothing to do with the book. As the author, I cannot remove it. Sorry for the inconvenience.”

    I didn't quite understand your comment. What exactly do you mean by "second book"?

    Hello! I want to share my impressions of reading the book "Diary of Yati Olshe. Volume 1" as part of an ongoing reading marathon. My overall impression of Yati's adventures is positive. I liked the story. The concept of portal fantasy is well-executed: when the hero ends up in another world. In this case, also without memories of their past life, only with echoes that surface throughout the book. Ahead, Yati faces adaptation and adjustment to new realities, and it’s interesting to follow this journey. The author skillfully and gradually unfolds the new world: adding details and elements of its structure without overwhelming the reader right away. In the first part, the world is not fully revealed, which creates space for further development of the series. Structurally, the novel resembles a kaleidoscope of thoughts, letters to oneself, candid confessions, memories, and observations. There is almost no traditional plot structure here—and this is not a flaw, but a stylistic feature that adds authenticity to the diary. Yati herself is a well-thought-out heroine. However, in my opinion, she is a bit too perfect. This makes her character somewhat artificial. I would like to see real challenges in her life, situations where she can’t solve everything on her own. This would make her more human and relatable.

    Serena DavydovaRegarding the romantic storyline — it’s not present yet. Although there are many guys around the heroine who are part of her close circle, Yata maintains only friendly relationships with everyone. Perhaps the author will reveal a romantic storyline in the next volume. The language of the work is expressive, lively, and full of emotional depth, but it requires thorough editing: numerous grammatical errors sometimes hinder immersion in the plot and disrupt the reading rhythm. However, beneath this surface lies something genuine and worth attention — a voice that wants to be heard. Regarding the formatting of chapters — it’s worth considering replacing numerical date designations with the names of months. Such an approach would not only make the text more atmospheric but also help immerse the reader deeper into the world of the story, making it even more cohesive and alive. Yata Olshe’s story is worth reading; it is interesting and captivating. With love for stories, Serena Davydova

    Why didn't they use the names of months for dating the entries? I mostly listen to audiobooks, and in the narration, they mention our months. And I can't recall what the months are called in that world. I think it would be cool to use the names of the months from that world.

    Finally, another round of error checking is complete. If you notice any inaccuracies or missing parts of the text, please let me know. I will fix or add them. The book has slightly increased in size, but for those who have read it, don’t worry: the plot hasn’t been touched, only errors have been corrected. I hope you enjoy the story. Thank you for your attention and support!

    Hello! "Z pochatku" is written as "Spochatku," unless, of course, you mean a corn cob)) But then that’s in the enemy’s language, which is even worse)) Next - "it felt like" ("skladalos vidchuttya"). A feeling can’t be composed; it’s not an impression. Better to say "I felt." Next, "pulled the key" ("potyahnuv klyucha") - should be "handed over the key" ("prostyanuv klyucha"). I didn’t read further; after your moments in the blog, I expected a perfectly edited work.

    Nastya Kovalenko, Thank you for your support. But don't pay attention to this commentator. It was a temporary bot created by the author (who was offended by the words that even paid books here have mistakes) so that I couldn't check how he/she writes.

    Finally finished reading the first volume. I'll immediately write about the pros and cons. There are a lot of secondary characters. Cons: It's confusing to keep track of who is who. Pros: With so many characters, you really understand that the world is much bigger than it seems. Of course, there are plot conveniences. But where would we be without them? Perks for the MC are like a great power or a destiny in this world. And then there's sudden wealth. Too many guys around. Although the MC isn't romantically involved with any of them yet. It feels like she's waiting for someone. The MC's thoughts. They really jump around, as if something is preventing her from focusing and getting herself together. I hope the answer to this awaits ahead. Separately about the races of this world. The newcomers and the locals. There are way too many of them. Especially, questions arise about the races of the outsiders. Would someone really name something incomprehensible if given the chance? Overall, I liked it. I hope the next part won't disappoint.

    Alya Novak, thank you for your feedback. Regarding the characters, yes, there are too many of them, but unfortunately, I can’t do it differently for now. Goodies. Without any extras. But I’m still trying to reduce them. Guys. Yes, there are too many of them, but you have to understand that in this world, it’s a time when a woman’s role is mostly at home, with her husband and children. Despite this, I’m still trying to add more girls. About the romance. A small spoiler awaits in the second part. I hope it surprises you. Thoughts. The answer lies ahead. Regarding races. Before creating the group of travelers, I surveyed a lot of acquaintances. The condition was simple - choose a race from any fantasy/sci-fi book/game/movie, or create your own. Girls mostly chose demonesses and vampiresses, while guys had a broader range. Both dwarves and orcs. There were also those who chose, for example, Vulcans. But I was more surprised by those who suggested their own ideas. I hope you have enough patience to wait for the completion of the cycle about Yata Olshe.

    I was looking for just fantasy, without romance. I found it. I’ve only read the first part. It’s unusual, like reading a real diary. I liked it. Thank you. Let’s see what surprises are in store next. P.S. It’s a pity that I’ll have to part with someone all the time.

    I received a bunch of ones and not a single negative comment. It's so strange. And someone wasn't too lazy to "scroll through" the entire book to give ones under every chapter (34 chapters, by the way). Next time, it would be better if you write what you didn't like so I know what to work on. I won't be offended, and I won't rush to criticize your works. I'm just curious. Thank you for your attention.

    Thank you! It was interesting to journey through this story. And the final phrase is prophetic. Ancient. I mean the last couple of sentences... There were civilizations before, and there will be after... And emotions, character traits, feelings, desires, dreams - they are common to all. The perception of current reality depends on the range of inner qualities and the level of consciousness... And probably, almost always in the end, "there was no one to listen..." Best wishes to the Author, creative success, inspiration, and grateful readers! )

    Nataliya ShepelOver time, in the Bible, in Kobzar, in The Prophet by Khalil Gibran, in A Woman... by Maye Musk, and in The Art of War by Lao Tzu, we find relevant advice, life experience, and everything that helps to survive and LIVE. Of course, the accents of mentality are always present, so it is so appropriate to look at the world from the perspectives of mentally close people. Self-irony always indicates the maturity of the soul and significant willpower... ). PEACE TO YOUR HOME and TO ALL WHO LIVE IN IT!

    Started reading, interesting story. A few issues with grammar. "Будемо" is written with "E", "ідемо" with "i", not "ї", "намек" means hint, not tent.
