3.0

A fun, un-serious romp that felt reminiscent of a dungeons and dragons campaign. I loved the sass of all of the characters as well as the (very relatable) reactions of the main character to combat situations. I loved cinnamons complete and utter reluctance to be a hero and her massive pockets full of snacks.

I liked the plot. I thought it was fun. I liked most all the characters and how they interacted with one another and that as a whole The conflict was towards an entity and not with each other.

I did NOT like the sex scenes. Not because I don’t like sex scenes, but because it felt like they were unnecessarily lengthy and didn’t match the tone of the rest of the book. To be honest, they felt like something straight out of fanfiction. By the third one, I was skipping through the whole thing.

Overall of fun read, but I think I would’ve struggled to finish it if I hadn’t been listening to it on a 6 Hour drive.

That said, I’ll give the next book in the series a try, I really loved the narrator and did think it was a fun book. Just not one I’ll be recommending to my book club lol.
