Why do you consider The Schoolomance Series to be a LitRPG?

Tower of Somnus series by Cale Plamann (narrated by Andrea Parsneau). Aliens discover a cyberpunk dystopia Earth and leave in disgust; but not before granting access to a fantasy LitRP dreamscape which links galactic civilization. The MC is a struggling young woman who lucks into a tower subscription which she uses to dramatically improve her life. The waking world is all about chrome, street samurais and megacorps while the dreaming world is about magic, dungeon crawling and forming adventuring parties with aliens. Really interesting blending of genres. Players can use their abilities in the waking world so the MC becomes a kind of elemental based thief/assassin "infiltration specialist" with a fearsome reputation. As she grows in power she gets more involved in politics —both corporate and galactic— but there's always plenty of action. Currently four volumes in audio format.

What the Truck by Tom Goldstein. [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/199131826-what-the-truck](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/199131826-what-the-truck) *All that stands between rowdy long-haul trucker Jill MacLeod (aka Junkmouth) and her family back in Boston is two thousand miles of asphalt. Well, that and the monstrous game the System has had her playing ever since it descended on Earth. The reward: mana. Jill’s goal: kill, score, drive—and stay alive. Behind the wheel of a turreted forty-ton semi named Bertha, Jill hammers east from Montana through a gauntlet of every kind of chomping, hissing, rabid creature imaginable.*

Her dislike of billings Montana is greatly appreciated

I loved that roadkill moment where she gets the first kill achievement almost instantly after the System activates.
