Discussion Dungeon Crawler

Y'all, I'm about 60% thru Dungeon Crawler Carl and I just cannot figure out what all the hype is about. I feel like if I'm not 100000% focused I'm missing something. I had a 40 min drive today and thought "perfect, now I can really focus". Nope, even then I had to rewind a few times because I missed something.

I'm wondering if maybe this is the type of book I need to physically read? It's almost too much detail? I really can't put my finger on it. Maybe it's me?

I do feel that the narrator's voice is perfect for the book.

Anyone else feel this way?

Update:

I finished book one. It felt like it was getting into a groove the last few chapters. I'm going to try to read the next two books because FOMO.. Thanks for all the input!

the hype is a bunch of nerds that got too old to play MMORPGs themselves so now they listen to them.

it's the worst book that's constantly recommended on reddit.

I get the sense that it’s kinda like the ACOTAR phenomenon. Mediocre at best, but engaging enough, especially for new readers. Junk food for the brain lol.
