Book Review: Slime Sweets and Dungeon Treats
When Hazel wakes up in a dungeon full of monsters, she’s told to choose a weapon and start fighting. Instead, she picks a grilled cheese, because who needs weapons when you’ve got food?
The system rewards her ridiculous decision with a brand-new class: Culinary Mage. Instead of grinding monsters, Hazel’s winning over slimes with homemade treats and discovering that a good meal can do far more than fill an empty stomach.
With her new food-based skills, Hazel opens a cozy little cafe in the middle of the dungeon. Before long, all kinds of monsters are flocking to her door for treats, slimes are evolving before her eyes, and even other adventurers begin wondering if there’s more to life than fighting their way to the next floor.
But in a dungeon built for battle, can Hazel really change the rules with nothing but delicious food, stubborn optimism, and a pack of hungry slimes?
Featuring found family, whimsical magic, and a sprinkle of romance, Slime Sweets and Dungeon Treats is a cozy LitRPG about building a home in the unlikeliest of places.
My Review
I absolutely love this book so much. I am a big-time gamer, so I totally got all of the references. I like to take more of an offensive stance when playing games or stealthy approach. However, if there was an option to become a Culinary Mage, I definitely would pick that choose as my profession.
I love that Hazel took the most unexpected approach to navigating the dungeon. What made it even funnier was how bent out of shape Dave was with how Hazel decided to play the game. The more she advantaged the madder he got and the more I laughed.
Hazel makes friends, Fiona, Jellybean, and various other slimes. Each of the different slimes that Hazel encountered along the way were unique and helped Hazel. As soon as I was done with this book, I went searching to see what other books the author has written. This book is a gamers delight!
