"Goddammit, Donut!"
This was a "hey husband, pick out a book you think I'd read" at the store one night that turned into purchasing and then doing our first buddy read together just from the synopsis.
This book gives me Hunger Games meets intergalactically/species game show meets dungeon crawler RPG.
It was really enjoyable, hilarious and written really well. I wasn't expecting all the hack/slasher gor- ish vibes situations at first but I got over that quickly. The book very much reads as a litrpg but I appreciated it, as a casual gamer I didn't find it too much or boring.
Princess Donut sucked us in to buy this book and kept me and my husband thoroughly laughing all the way through the book. Really like Carl and Princess Donut's banter and although we felt that the book ended a bit abruptly, we are very much looking to continuing the series!
