I just finished dungeon crawler carl, and I'm so happy to hear that someone liked it, because I really struggled. There were parts I thought were really compelling though! What did you really like about it?

It's probably my favorite series for a few reasons. The humor is unhinged and I was cackling regularly. It also justifies the unhinged humor in-universe well enough that it didn't break my immersion. The worldbuilding is actually awesome. I like that even though the stakes are high, nothing too bad happens. Sure there's some rough moments, but nothing too painful to read (unlike red rising which is a constant series of dick kicks). What surprised me is it isn't just a silly series, there's a message in there. Like the title of book 3 isn't just for asthetic. Coincidentally that was also the hardest one to read. Too much shit going on for me to really visualize and follow.

I think the absurdity of it got me. Its so over the top silly.

Honestly I just am having fun with it and sometimes thats what you need.
