  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

5.0

Overall: 5/5
Catch me starting book 3 this very instant. 

Characters: 5/5
All hail Princess Donut. Carl is cool too. 

Setting/Worldbuilding: 5/5
Love the slow reveal of the world and politics outside the dungeon. 

Plot: 5/5
No spoilers but you can bet your tiara I damn near had a heart attack over Donut. 

Writing: 4.5/5
Seems like the editors missed the mark a bit on this one. There are multiple instances where the same phrase is used twice in a short time. That’s my only real gripe though and I don’t think it’s enough to drag down the overall rating (hypocritically, I’m repeating what I said about book one on this point)
