I did too! And I have to admit I am much more interested in reading the book with a human and not an appliance lol

Me and Narilka just read cooler LitRPG/Cultivation stories :D

Cat lady reborn as dungeon, human reborn as demonic tree that can make magical fruit to increase cultivation powers, etc etc etc...

I want to read some of those LitRPGs with Mimic treasure chests... Orc Chef (Morcster Chef)... etc...

Alot of us first tried the LitRPG genre with Threadbare, the one about a Teddy Bear Golem come to life...

If that shirt wasn't truly awful..."

Just up to Chapter 20 got a late start.
OMG the donut hole shirt, I spit out the water i was drinking when I read this. Has to be one of the funnier pieces in the series.
Thinking of all they are facing there can still be such laughter.

Wait till later… around chapter 75, (view spoiler)[Donut & Carl create a pact to get matching tramp stamps ;) (hide spoiler)]

Will be done soon and have time to comment after work

I dunno what it is, but I've been struggling through this. Makes me rather sad actually I'm having a hard time paying attention/following what's going on...
Is a reread on for this year? I might not force it and wait for the reread to pick this back up

That sucks! I hope it starts clicking for you soon!!! But yes, we are doing a re-read later this year :)

I’ve actually been leaning towards Ann-Maries plan of re-reading DCC twice this year… this was bonkers and makes me want to catch all the foreshadowing/etc…

Yes! I just re-read #1 if you want to lmk and I'll hold off on #2 until you are ready :)

Sounds good :D

Next restart is June, right?… so we only need to squeeze one in every 2-3 weeks?

Yup! Also just home from book club and the lowest rating was someone who said 3.75/4 stars for book 1. There is a chance I may have said I would be judging folks on their ratings before the book discussion started lol

If they all liked it, you can say it's the weakest in the series, because it only gets better/crazier from here :D

[Timelord Iain, Tech Support]

I'm reading through all the spoilers, but don't have much to say since I don't know what to say about any of it... such a chaotic mess of a story, and I'd just be mentioning crazy things that were crazy and I loved, which is basically all of it...

I will say I looked up the revelation towards the end, and found out there was a Patreon poll about how that happened, and the winning result was (view spoiler)[Carl's wife situation was a result of that 95% Naga viewership during negotiations with the defacto leader when he was named President of Earth, and he was husbanded without consent because Crawlers aren't people, under System Law, anyway... or so I hear...

DIY... you buy a blowup sex doll, cut the head/torso off and tie it like a balloon, and build your own, obviously...

Has real Meatboy energy to me... just a bit more brainy-looking...

I did remind everyone that I have been recommending it for a year now and they should take it as a sign to always prioritize my suggestions lol

Immediate assumption, after you guys' comments... after 7 books and 8-9 floors, it's hard to think of what hasn't been done yet, and would make a good floor theme...

(view spoiler)[what about that possessed dude that was level 175... altho he probably doesn't have deity spells/etc, and maxxed stats from other minmaxxing, necessarily...

And I wondered if it was maybe to get the dead daughter back?... (hide spoiler)]

That's interesting. (view spoiler)[Book 8 prologue, Ch 1-3 have dropped on Patreon. Rumor is that the husband thing is immediately addressed. (hide spoiler)]

My husband asked today why I haven't subbed to Patreon yet lol I like not having the books too spoiled and I'm sure I'd lose any impulse control if I was subscribed.

I think I am going to follow along with book 8, when I joined the Patreon book 7 was very far along. I need to pay attention to it more though, I missed the prologue that was released in December!

Three cheers for that, my friend!

Also, I so feel Narilka's comments about finishing the book and needing to process. Your comments are helping me process. I am not done processing. I am so going to need that full series reread this summer.
