cute comforting why did my ass think this was like spicy the red tabs were unnecessary for fade to black my ass needs belp now ym anyway i love them they’re so cute i’m totally reading the sequel.
I stopped trying ti be a fancy ass reviewer (i’m not being paid)
First read: 3.75 stars!! (i rounded up lol)
So this book was a ride at first I was sorta scared getting into it but the plot and the road trip and just everything was amazing! There was beautiful character development in this book and the story was great. The romance was beautiful it definitely pulled at my heart strings! The fact that they had a neuro-divergent MC is great and the non-binary rep was an added touch. I genuinely enjoyed both characters as they were both well written and just wonderful, though Conrad did get on my nerves in the beginning i do not know why.
This is a story about two enemies who play Odyssey a fantasy card game and stream it with their other friends, they have to go on a road trip together to a convention to play at a tournament filming content and falling in love along the way, they both need to win this tournament badly but when they start to fall how will they accept defeat?
When reading this it felt pretty medium paced with it going fast in some parts and a good pace in others, for example the falling was pretty quick, in the sense that you as the reader are made aware of the characters feelings for each other pretty early on. But it made sense in this plot line though I’m not sure many people would enjoy that. I genuinely enjoyed the gaming parts and enjoyed this book, i skipped out on doing math to read sooo yeah anyway this book is great!
