    Still slowly making my way through book 1 of He who fights with Monsters. I am enjoying it some, its only second litRPG i have read. I think DCC is better so far but this one kinda feels more fleshed out in some ways? I dunno maybe its because its book 1 and DCC was the same in book 1 but its been a minute since i read it so I dont remember. Maybe its more fleshed out in that its not a world ending event that kicks everything off like DCC.

    Also started The Memory Police by Yoko Ogawa. I like it so far not far, but i really want to know more about this world. Hopefully there is something explaining things by the end.

      I’m coming up to the end of book 11 of He Who Fights With Monsters at the moment. During the first book I thought that DCC was better, mirroring your sentiments in a way.

      Now I think it is superior to DCC. I wouldnt say there is a lot in it as I think both are great but I think he who fights just tips it.

      If you like both of those you should also check out;

      I read The Memory Police many years ago with my book club. I don’t remember everything, but I remember really enjoying that book. I hope you like it too!
