Goodreads Monday/TBR Monday is hosted by Budget Tales Book Blog and invites you to post about what books are on your Goodreads “to read” lists or TBR lists, the progress you have made on your current books and reading challenges, and any other bookish news!

The Luckless by A.M. Sohma is an MMORPG and LITRPG Online Adventure. It gave me huge Sword Art Online vibes so I quickly added it to my TBR! This is the first book in the Second Age of Retha series. Also I just realized that A.M. Sohma is an alter ego to K.M. Shea so that honestly blew my mind how I added so many of her books all at once without realizing it lol.

Synopsis
Welcome to Retha, the full submersion video game where you can be the hero of your own adventure.
Unfortunately for Kit, it only takes one moment to turn the game into a nightmare.
When Chronicles of Retha experiences a software malfunction, Kit—a disenchanted veteran player—is stuck in the game without a way to log off. Even worse, she’s trapped playing as the most defective character possible, an elf dancer that was meant to be a prank.
Thankfully, she receives word that there is a way out. But the only escape route is to defeat the game’s ultimate villain. Kit, in her joke character, must fight her way through some of the worst Retha has to offer. Her only help is a party of low-leveled players just as powerless as she is, and the occasional act of mercy from one of the best players in the game, the taciturn (and aloof) Solus Miles.
Can Kit and her new friends finish the quest, or will Retha be their end?
Updates
I do not think I made too progress with two of my current reads this past week but I did manage to finish my ARC copy of The Twilight Garden by Emma Davies. I should have that review within the next couple of days.
I am still 35% of the way through The Time Trials by the McConnells, and 16% of the way through the audiobook version of Boy of Chaotic Making by Charlie N. Holmberg.
