I really liked this story. For me it was original. The characters were super interesting. It touched on some aspects I didn’t expect, which was wonderful. The narrators voice was so unique and the highlights to the internal and sometimes external monologue or conversations were perfectly done. Not overdone, as that can be distracting. I recommend this book for anyone but in particular for people looking for a break from isekai. It just felt right, like a well deserved vacation!
