Erin's whole introduction , getting the inn up and running, her struggle with the goblins. A strong start that led me to immediately pick up the second volume.

It was interesting but a little hard to follow sometimes. Overall I really enjoyed it though!

Got 5 hours 33 minutes into the audiobook.
The narrator makes the main character sound incredibly whiny and annoying. Idk if it's a litrpg genre standard to make the main character incompetent and stupid from the start so they can level up, but her decisions annoyed me and it wasn't interesting enough to continue.

Suffice to say I couldn't stand the characters even when trying to temper their personality as that of a younger person still discovering themselves as well as the shock of being thrown into an unknown and alien world. Not only that but communicating a characters emotions was dumped in rambling internal monologues or the unrealistic set up or decisions to push the story in specific directions that were logically infuriating. I do not think my expectations were where they should've been when starting a self-published online work especially since the recommendations I had seen were raving about the pacing and foreshadowing, but that does not change my opinion of this book. I MAY try a few more chapters online again as I also read that one of the main characters is better written after the events of this book but I do not hold out hope and so I am unsure if I will actually bother.
