    Would you say the book has deep plot intensity like Acendence of a Bookworm or is it more of a quick read? Have had this book on my radar.

    No, it’s nothing like Bookworm. It’s somewhat unique in that it’s a power fantasy but mixed with a “fish out of water” story. You have your typical OP MC craving fights (you know the type that wants to fight demi-gods for a light workout) but MC is thrust into a situation where all that power doesn’t help her (in this cast TV broadcasts). So as far as plot intensity goes you switch from battle -> TV work -> battle -> TV work… while Bookworm’s plot is a steady climb that culminates in the grand finale. Charted on a graph Lia Niston is a sine wave while Bookworm is a line.

    The quality of the prose itself is also nowhere near Bookworm. I Hope that helps.
