Welcome to Litsy!

This would be great if I like gaming… but I‘m a reader so it was good and had some great content

Omg this book is so fun! It‘s everything I hope a d&d campaign will be! I‘m excited to read more and keep living in the world Matt Dinniman created.

This was so much fun! Halfway through, I went and purchased the next two, knowing this is a series I'll read till the end. Multiple moments had me laughing out loud, and I feel this book would get better on reread as I'm sure there's lots of clever jokes I missed.

My 2024 Book Bracket!
Dungeon Crawler Carl is the overall winner for this year, which makes sense because I was obsessed with this book. I think I recommended it to every bookish, nerdish, tabletop gamer type person I knew this year. My husband and I devoured the audiobooks on a road trip over the summer and I highly recommend listening to the Sound Booth Theater version. If you like DnD, cats and laughing, then you need to read this book.

4/4⭐️
Absolutely fabulous audio performance! This is a book I would much prefer to listen to than read. My husband made me get the second book at soon as we finished the first.

I‘m listening to this with my husband and we are loving it. It‘s hilarious!

My 3rd hardcover edition of DCC. 🤷🏼‍♀️

One of my top ten series of all time.💜

This is so fun! I know, I know...you look at the title and this cover and immediately think "nope, not for me" but read a few reviews! Just two or three. Then try it. This is getting me out of a slump. Everything I'm reading seems so similar to each other and kind of depressing. This (so far, because I just started it) is so entertaining! I'm hooked and looking forward to the ride. It's giving Hunger Games/Ready Player One vibes- in a good way.

This was a blast! Such a fun, hilarious, gory thrill ride. I will definitely continue the series! 5⭐️

#doublespin pick done!

This book was a wild, violent, sometimes quite funny ride. Carl and Donut, a champion show cat, become unwilling participants in a global underground game battling orcs, rats and other monsters for the fate of the Earth. Combining video game world-building, The Hunger Games spectacle and buddy comedy chemistry, it makes for a fast and furious read. I only read this for cat book club but I'm tempted to read the sequel just to see what happens.

OMG as a D&D player I loved this. From Princess Donut to Mungo. This book is just pure entertainment.

Imagine, if you will, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy mashed with Death Race/The Hunger Games, Theseus vs the Minotaur, D&D, and a first-shooter video game and you get pretty close to the vibe of Dungeon Crawler Carl.
Throw in a pampered yet vicious show cat named Princess Doughnut, an AI that‘s a little too obsessed with feet, & former-Coast Guard Carl & you have a mashup that‘s thrilling and hilarious.
My first LitRPG and definitely not my last.

🎧 The Butcher‘s Masquerade - Book 5!

I haven‘t laughed this much in a long time. The books get better & better!

There are tons of well-designed & explored interesting aliens/monsters!

Another level completed.

A compelling new adventure. I‘m probably going to relisten to the 5 books when book 6 comes out. Yeahp, that much fun.

If you can handle my previous warnings then this might be the series for you. I love Carl & Donut!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ 👀

I read 21 books in June. I‘m still in a reading slump. Biggest surprise? Dungeon Crawler Carl!! Here are 16 of my favorites. I loved so many of the books I read this month. July is Indie readalong month so I hope I can crawl out of this slump!

🎧 SWEARING & MDK

Like DND & a violent video game had a baby. A post apocalyptic survival quest involving a multi-level dungeon,leveling up, bosses, monsters, humans & alien reality TV.

Carl & his x-gf‘s cat Princess Donut are the MC‘s. An animal companion!! Fighting for their lives. The epilogue reveal was priceless.

I could imagine Wil Wheaton reading this!

Carl‘s wardrobe on this quest? A leather jacket, boxers & pink crocs …

The world has collapsed, and all who survived are thrown into another world-a competitive dungeon where people fight monsters and humans alike. The book follows Carl and his estranged girlfriend's cat, Princess Donut, through their adventures in the dungeon. While I liked the book, I think it would be frustrating or maybe impossible for someone who has never played any RPG games like World of Warcraft to understand or follow along with the story.

I'm really liking this book so far. I'm listening to the audiobook, and think this is the best way to experience the book. The voice actor is amazing and he really captures each character's personality. If you're a fan of rpg, then you'll love this book. It brings me back to the days of playing WoW.
