Welcome to Litsy!

I love when you reread a book and you enjoy it just as much as you did the first time. Really enjoyed reading about Drizzt again and his beginning … now I‘m on to books 3-6 🤗📚

I‘m having problems reading book on my tbr (interest is not there) so I‘m going to reread this so maybe I can just enjoy reading again… when you read authors were the writing just flows it‘s hard to get into some books so I‘m trying to adjust my perspective a little

I am so stoked to start this tomorrow 🙌

There were some genuinely good moments in this book, but on the other hand, there were so many toxic male fantasy tropes.

MC being afflicted by madness was fun for a while until it was just taking too long to cure and I got sick of being hammered over the head of how everything he perceived was fake.

I could have also gone without the martial rape garbage.

A lot of the plot points in this book were really weird and unnecessary, but when the book dealt with the main plot it was fine.

There were some parts where I was wondering if it was the aurhor's poorly disguised fetish or if it was something with the game lore itself that he borrowed from

Just finished this and it was okay. There were some really stupid plot points and decisions made but it was tolerable. This and the other two novels following it also seem to be taking place and are the cause of the events in The Out of the Abyss module. (My OOTA campaign is on a hiatus currently, but it's so amusing to me that my characters are unfortunately there to experience all of that mess)

Last week was very off for me. I got very little reading done due to fatigue and things out of my control. Made little progress with Archmage, and was too tired for any physical reads. I hope this week will go better.

I am still struggling to find time to sit down and read WFTD, but I am aiming for next week. In the meantime I am continuing my Drizzt book binge, they are ones I can kind of zone out on and it wouldn't make much of a difference, so I listen to them when I play my fav MMO.

This was one of the better ones in the series. at least one character finally got it through their head that Genocide Is Bad, Actually. MC really got on my nerves through this series, a bit less so in this particular installment.

I, in general, l don't like how he's written (omniscient yet substantial, having all the life experience and wisdom, yet learning basic life lessons like “not everyone is a bad person because of their background“

You have to suspend your disbelief on this one. I did learn a few things in this book about dnd though (mainly geography). This is a good book, if it‘s a stand alone fantasy book. My favorite character turned out to be the wizard— Cazrin.
