Dungeon Crawler Carl has officially taken over our lives—but does the series genuinely deserve all the hype?We discuss the characters we are terrified to lose, its surprisingly thoughtful commentary on misogyny and oppressive systems, and why rereading a familiar story can become an emotional life raft when everything else feels chaotic.We also talk about The Song of Achilles, The Spellshop, Heaven Official’s Blessing, Suffs, Korea’s Battle of Fates, trusting your intuition, Reykjavik, Tokyo, and an upcoming magical trip to Scotland.What was the best book you read this month?Join our new LIVE show, The Alchemist's Inkspill, every Friday at 1pm EST/10am PST here on YouTube (and Instagram Live)!Connect with us across the internet + IRL! 🌈Follow Emily: Patreon: https://patreon.com/likerofwordsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/likerofwordsYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LikerOfWordsBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/likerofwords.bsky.socialWebsite (join the mailing list!): https://www.emilydexterpsychic.com/Follow KristaLyn: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/kristalynsofiaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristalynsofia/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KristaLynSofia Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/kristalynsofia.bsky.social Website (join the mailing list!): https://www.kristalynsofia.com/00:00 Why Dungeon Crawler Carl Deserves the Hype00:31 We Finally Finished Dungeon Crawler Carl06:36 Our Favorite Dungeon Crawler Carl Characters07:06 The Song of Achilles07:34 The Spellshop08:00 Replacing Scrolling With Reading08:28 Heaven Official’s Blessing09:47 Rereading Books When Life Feels Chaotic11:31 Writing Fortuna11:55 Suffs and the Women’s Suffrage Movement16:23 Korea’s Psychic Competition Show18:26 What Do We Have Too Much Of?20:59 Pessimism, Optimism, and Trusting Your Intuition23:15 The Angriest We Have Ever Been25:49 Reykjavik and Tokyo Surprised Us28:48 Updates and Upcoming Live Shows29:22 A Magical Trip to Scotland#DungeonCrawlerCarl #FantasyBooks #BookRecommendations
