Why read it?
1 author picked I Ran Away to Evil as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved the repeated subversion of frustrating romance tropes in this book. I never thought I’d enjoy a LitRPG romcom so much, or that it could even work as a concept, but here we are.
Though I may not be hard to fool, this novel baited me countless times, only to pull me back from the brink just before I turned my Kindle into a frisbee. It takes a certain awareness to pull off such trickery, and Mystic Neptune possesses it in spades.
From Haylock's list on fantasy that leaves you feeling warm and cozy.
