[DISC] What makes RI "good writing"?

I'm rereading it a second time and I genuinely cannot fathom why I'm enjoying it.

In terms of actual writing, the prose is clunky and unconnected(possibly due to the translation?). The twists are certainly there but are in effect the same things over and over or a deus ex machina from a hidden interaction or external circumstance.

The dialogue reads as unnatural and unnecessarily edgy, while beating you over the head with the same point repeatedly. Narration is composed of the same four recycled ideas but presented like a twist every time.

Despite all that, I read all of it in ~4 weeks and just finished book 1 a second time.

What actually makes this good?
(sorry if wrong flair)

Give me a concept to stimulate learning

In recent times, I've found myself going on autopilot. I've lost games I definitely should have been able to win for my team. Thus, I do what I dread most: turning to reddit.

I've had a friend tell me my laning is dogcrap bad so give me a concept to work on and think about in lane.

Any concept will do so long as it gets my gears going. So anything from ward usage to champ spikes.

Elo is gold-plat ish. Prefers champs like braum, naut, thresh. But if I should pick up another champ to get me learning again I'd be happy to.

Btw, if help is the wrong flair for this, please let me know. I don't tend to browse this sub.
