Welcome to Litsy!

I am flying through #dungeoncrawlercarl.

Despite the war and chaos this series is still somewhat of a comfort read for me and this installment kept the same vibe as the previous ones. Carl and Donut are forced to make terrible decisions and the horrors are not glossed over so there's definitely some emotional heft. I have no clue where this series is going but I'm definitely all in.

It‘s the start of my weekend and Sierra, Rolo, and I are taking time out to read and be cozy.

Finally reading this, after only having done 3 watch throughs of the show. It‘s just as good, if not better. Loved the show so naturally loving the books.

Officially don‘t think LitRPGs are for me. I‘m pretty sure this is a me problem. I find it boring listening to in-game stats and it feels like it‘s interrupting the story. When you actually play RPGs you‘re more immersed in it, and the character has always been a part of the world they‘re inhabiting. I appreciate the concept of us normal people being thrown into a video game, but it‘s not as exciting as I thought it would be.

How's everyone's 2025 bracket coming along? Ever have multiple books in the same series end up competing against each other?

So far, the two LitRPGs I‘ve tried were a bust. Hopefully this latest listen can redeem the genre for me. You would think a gamer who loves playing RPGs and reading fantasy would take to it immediately, but so far it hasn‘t worked for me.

While this was still a fun adventure, much of the character magic was gone as the author pivoted to a new region. There is a nod to some favorite characters but they never take center stage. This isn‘t as funny or as satisfying. For a 500 page book, it ended abruptly.

When the current state of the world gets you down, you hit your local bookstore and get different worlds to escape into. #bookhaul

Skippy, the alien beer can, as usual, steals the show.
