Good novel ruined for no discernable reason
3 stars
It's a cute and exciting story, but the numerous blatant sexist, objectifying, patriarchal and heteronormative comments are off-putting and completely unnecessary for the story. 😠

A middle-aged man with only one passion in his life meets a fitting end in a traffic accident. That's where most stories would end, but instead, this is when his story begins when he's reborn as what he admired the most in life – a vending machine! But his new lease on life(?) happens in the worst place possible – what can a vending machine do in a monster-infested dungeon when he can't speak or even move on his own?
