2.0

I'm sorry, but what? The book is ending RIGHT where it slowly gets interesting? After making people suffer through 50% of the actual story being just fighting? And almost 30 percent of the ebook is just an extract from another book?

This book is probably a solid read for people who's brains are wired to equate fight with excitement or suspense. Unfortunately mine is wired to equate fight scenes with utter boredom and sociological or psychological stuff, human relationships (outside of just romance) with excitement. So this book was clearly not for me and the German publisher made it even worse with both a completely misleading title and blurb (because this book is neither funny nor humorous and no, the T-Shirt did in fact not play any larger role) and the fact that almost a third of it is advertisement for another book. 

(And a short mimimi: The German title was actually a good plotbunny leading to me expecting something VERY different. But thanks to the publisher using that title for a book it doesn't fit, it'll be years till one could use the plotbunny without getting sued. Yay.)
