I'm a completer/finisher... but I don't think I care about reading this any more. I'll give it one more try

It's an alright book.
I'm reading it and enjoying it.
My big problem is that it was published in 2024... the world has MASSIVELY changed even since then.

I wonder what it says about the book that it's still stuck at 65% weeks and weeks later.
I dont' fancy finishing it, but haven't yet summoned the dislike to mark it as DNF

Book is ok so far... but OMG can they stop picking up the "reigns" of the horses!!!

Was this voice to text created and then never edited?

Fun book. Very interesting premise. It's a bit shallow, but the storytelling makes up for it

OK... I'm 40% in... and I'm still just waiting for when the BOOK WILL START!??

(I'm listening on audible BTW and now at 1.3 speed).
Every individual minute is interesting enough, and I get it's a long book, but being 11 hours into a 22hour book and still waiting for the plot to start is starting to waste my time.

actually really liking this book. No idea why they're calling it a progression fantasy as it's not following any of those patterns.

Almost 2 different books. One book all about the survival in the frost, one book all about the underground. Both are good, but the steampunk 2033 style of the above ground called to me a little bit more

I'm at chapter 4 on audible and I cannot see what's happening yet. Started cleanly, and then seems to have gone into a lot of descriptive exposition which doesn't clarify the plot.

Let's see how it goes

Honestly? I've kind of stopped reading it and on my kindle, I'm scrolling past it to read something else

The premise is great... but I am about 10-15% in and I keep dropping it to go read something else. It just isn't grabbing me yet.

I'm reading this. Let's see how it goes, I think the title may end up being applicable to the book.

I'm really enjoying this. It's a great story and lots of little snippets that shed light on the evolution of the chips, the struggle for supremacy etc. More to come

I was sort of not very interested in this in the beginning... and mainly aiming to listen because of the time invested in the previous ones.

However I have found myself enjoying it more now as I gradually realise that the author does have a plan

Oh no!!!.... I'm really starting to stress out already. Despite the fact that this is a LOOOOOOONNNNNNGGGG book (I'm >6,000 pages in on my kindle)... it's just so good that I can see eventually I will read to the last page and then EITHER that's it.. there's no more story from Erin and friends or instead of reading it every morning and evening .... I now have to wait for the next chapter as drip feed torture

wow... a lot to take in... showing how both a lot of what I knew was wrong, as well as linking some missing elements into a lot of what I knew.

Gavin is on page 400 of 1235 of The Wandering Inn (The Wandering Inn, #1)
This is NOT a LITRPG book.. and that's why I like it.
It's a character book, a plot book, a situation book... that just happens to be set in a somewhat LITRPG universe
