It was a good story and interesting world/mystery. I think the humour would be too much for sometimes but I can see other people really enjoying the fourth wall interruptions. I didn’t hate them but it didn't add much for me.
solid. a mix of comedic/absurd and emotional that I think is appropriate in these transmigration/isekai-type stories. I found it leaned a bit too comedic in the beginning, but the tone improved as the story went on. I really like how it explored some of the repercussions for Davi of her time-loop life. the writing really shined in the moments where she realized she wasn’t okay. I’m pretty excited to read the next book.

Just do not read this book it’s so bad it took me so long to get through it’s so cringy it was clearly a female protagonist written by a male just don’t do it
This was a book club book that I was reluctant to vote for or read after reading reviews on the main character being a poor portrayal of a female character. Honestly, I tore through this. This is, in book form, what I call a ‘popcorn & soda’ book. It’s fun, it’s fast, it’s loose. Its seriousness is hidden in its humor, and yes, there’s not much. But there’s all there needs to be.
Our main character faces the now potentially overfamiliar isekai dilemma - reborn into a new world. Except she’s reborn again. And again. And again, and again, and again, until she’s as far removed from her life on Earth as we are to Ancient Rome.
Her decision to change tactics - to become the dark lord - is not half-hearted, but it is half-insane. Not the plan, the character. I mean 1000+ years of dying and torture would make you a bit insane. But it works, for the most part. I’d say my one critique is in its quirky quest made out in the novel’s title, it perhaps goes a bit too far, becoming cringe at points.
While her erratic behavior, healthy libido, and overall devil-may-care attitude are charming, the constant anachronistic earth culture mentions feel a bit off. I mean memetics are probably more likely to survive than your day-to-day life, but for someone who claims to ‘remember little of their life on Earth’ there’s an awful lot of exhausting references the locals have no hope of understanding. Which makes it a bit confusing why they trust her. But I digress. It’s might just a personal pet peeve.
This book succeeds very well at being a fun that soothes a brain that wants to turn off, but manages to add a few nice little moral spices on its popcorn entertainment
