TW/ deadname.
Around page 15 a deadname for a trans character is included... I hope this is removed in the final version.
Unfortunately this one was not for me.
I was intrigued by the premise, as someone who has never played D&D but has seen a few play-throughs and found those fun, and as someone who is queer.
I really enjoyed the descriptive writing style and also the way the story inside of a story was told.
I found the tone clashed in the 1st half (sometimes YA sometimes New Adult); the book gets more solid in the 2nd half and i became more invested in the "real-life" plot then.
Other CW: homophobia, religious trauma, mental illness depiction, sexual & violent content.
Thank you to NetGalley and the Iowa University Press for an eARC
