While the rating may not show it, i actually did have a fun time reading this and feeling immersed. the pacing may through some people off, but i don’t mind a slower moving book. and, the plot twist did catch me off guard. but, i do wish the ending was a but more cleaned up. definitely a hit or miss book considering how hyped up it was.
also why was the mc doing literally any and every side quest beside their job💀
