Looking for Feedback on My Novel – I Am the Last of My Kind

Hey everyone!
I just released my latest novel, I Am the Last of My Kind, andd would love some honest feedback and critique to help me improve.
I’m especially looking for thoughts on pacing, character depth, and overall engagement, but any feedback on writing style, dialogue, or plot is greatly appreciated.
Here’s the link: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1425038/i-am-the-last-of-my-kind/

Let me know what you think! Thanks in advance to anyone who gives it a read.

Pacing is ...

Fast. Introduction was rushed at best, to the point it makes the whole "reincarnated" aspect moot and pointless.

The story would play out the same if Linnea, the android protagonist (gynoid since female?) just suddenly re-activated in the stasis pod, storage, a charging unit, whatever applicable, and followed some vague instruction left behind by the original programming.

This goes hand in hand with character depth. Characterization of Linnea, the android, isn't necessarily a problem: she (being a machine) could even feel robotic, because, well, she is a robot. (some lines suggest a cyborg instead, but fine, it's your setting lore, I have no problem with it), but if you consider there is the mind (or soul, reincarnation is somehow a thing) inside entirely unprepared for this plot, it makes it a little jarring. Linnea the machine didn't necessarily have personality per se, but Aron should have.

Engagement is ... fine... once again, the story would run itself for the while on the premise of awakening in the stasis pod (of whatever applicable) for the while, even without a conversation in ten chapters, it is just, quite devoid of personality (which aligns with the protagonist being a robot, but collides with the human mind within premise)

Style is ...

This is matter of a preference, I question whether the story should be written in the 3rd person if the large point of the story is seeing or hearing the system messages in your head, giving you directions.

Decently written otherwise, I would alternate the words a little.
