I’m finishing the 3rd book at the request of a friend and … I’m finding it unfunny at best. They’re were some interesting moments with Donuts but I feel they are becoming spare.

Most monsters are only a derivative name on a 2-3years old meme and I don’t feel no struggle inside Carl

Out of convenience I choose to listen to it and it’s maybe why I find this really dull but comparing it with something like Dungeon and Daddies and D&D it’s much more imaginative

    I’ve been forcing myself through the first book. It alternates between utterly flat and embarrassingly cringe. I feel like Dinniman isn’t a strong enough writer to sustain a novel.

      oh man, I’ve read so much worse than Dinniman lol… like, holy hell Robert Jordan got me to book 4 or 5 before I started to doubt it was gonna work out lol… I’ve read some warhammer and star wars novels lol, I have no pride. Not everything needs to be Steinbeck or Joyce for me. YMMV.
