    This cozy manga is ideal for the booklover who wants to stand on the sidelines, but has to become a saviour. We only get a small glimpse into the personalities, but it seems we will learn more about them in the next volume. My only con from this book is that it does not leave me wanting more or give me a sense of curiosity when it comes to where the story or characters will go. Felt more like a standalone book and a book in a series. Mostly because the story did not intrigue me enough to learn more.

    I struggled with this book. The characters were not captivating to me and I felt like they lack luster. Don't get me wrong, their were some twists and turns that surprised me, but I just could not immerse myself in the jungle. The adventure portion held my attention more than the romance components. The romance was just not developed enough and made it challenging to really connect with our main characters. If you want a simplistic archeological adventure with indiana jonesesque ways (I mean it was pretty blatant with the references and story outline) and a good chunk sexual tension, congrats you found your next read.

    I really like the idea of the story. A Indiana Jones-esque adventure with a romantic twist. However, I'm not loving how it is progressing or how the characters are interacting with one another...

    I watched some of the anime, but thanks to the manga I will be diving more into the story. I loved this new perspective on the dungeon crawlers and the small bits of comedy in between. Although the action was not a main focal point in this volume, I think it will increase more as I read. Thoroughly enjoyed it, can't wait to continue reading.

    This book was quite informative and thanks to the audiobook narrator I enjoyed learning more about our fascination with Mr.Darcy. I personally haven't read Pride and Prejudice, but reading this book gave me a new perspective on those who watched Pride and Prejudice and makes me want to read more Jane Austen.
