I just read Strongest in the Galaxy (allegedly) by Veronique deSol. I thought the first part was hilarious. I actually laughed out loud a few times reading the MMCs POV. I was so excited because I thought I’d found a new favorite book! But once the characters got together I thought it wasn’t quite as interesting or funny. Still really enjoyed it but not as much.

What I really enjoyed was how frustrated and competitive the MMC was. He was obsessed with beating the FMC but lost every time. I like how she thought they were friendly but he was actually trying to screw her over and lowkey losing his mind.

Are there any books with a similar vibe? I’ve read sooooo many sci-fi books but I don’t think I’ve seen this trope(?) much.
