this book is so good but this boy’s judgement is so bad. brother if you don’t stop STRESSING me OUT-

woke up craving werewolves. i’m not a romance girlie so i have no idea if i’ll like this but we move

will this book ever end??

i’m happy again! i should’ve trusted cat valente

it’s possible i’ll never be happy again? will keep you posted

this book is giving me every single thing i want. i’m spellbound.

i desperately need marius to realize he’s in love with the cobra

why am i obsessed with marius now? dude. he’s so boring and stuffy, but two chapters in his pov and i got got anyway.

key sounds way too modern casual imo. either this is poorly written or he’s also been isekai’d.

rings of power season 2 got me in a tolkien mood so bad i have to reread this

desperately rotating tgcf’s entire plot in my mind trying to make sense of all the themes, but true to form mxtx is using every single extra to focus on the fact that hualian get freaky. as if there was any doubt.

I argue Hua Cheng is drawing on the teachings of renowned philosopher Lady Gaga—who said, “There can be 100 people in a room and 99 of them don’t believe in you, but all you need is just for one person to believe”—when he tells Xie Lian, “So what? [JW’s millions of believers] are millions of fools; they’re all useless trash! But for you, one person is enough.”

lmao WHY is the state preceptor telling us the missing hua cheng backstory??? he wasn’t even there, he’s like i heard this story from my friends the mountains. right in front of hua cheng btw. i bet this man recites lore monologues as a hobby in his spare time

if mu qing actually dies i will be so upset. i have big plans for a trip to the feng xin | nan yang/mu qing | xuan zhen tag on ao3 after i finish this book!! i don’t want that journey to turn into a FUNERAL PROCESSION

MOST INSANE LORE DUMP MONOLOGUE OF ALL TIME?? this dude has been talking for chaptersss and he’s still making reveals

I KNEW I COULDNT TRUST THAT WHITE-CLAD MOTHERFUCKER (not that one the other one!!) HAHAHA but no this is so bad

[REDACTED]!!!! he’s alive!! oh i knew [redacted 2] would spare him. homosexuality is stronger than hate.

xie lian is jaegering a gargantuan statue of himself, let’s goooo!!!

as far as heartbreaking torture and tragedy goes, i’m having a great time. this is brilliantly written.

BABY GHOST HUA CHENG 🥹!!!! he is such a lying liar who lies btw. ‘no i never saw you in the past 800 years’ when he was there trying to protect xie lian all along

ARE HUA CHENGS ASHES AROUND XIE LIAN’S NECK???? IN THE NECKLACE HE GAVE HIM IN VOLUME 2?? IS THAT WHAT I AM TO INFER BY HIS CRYPTIC REMARKS???? i’m losing it y’all

“so i didn’t misunderstand you. it really is true.” SCREAMINGFNNH. LIKE. ISNT THAT THEIR WHOLE LOVE LANGUAGE?? INTUITIVELY UNDERSTANDING EACH OTHER BUT HESITATING TO PRESUME. building a door and waiting for the other to cross the threshold…

everyone xie lian has ever met, ghost or not, is here at the ghost hunger games. small world!

i really suspect the ancient crown prince of wuyong of becoming the white-clothed calamity. does this make sense with what we know about the wcc? no. but the archeology compels me…

we’re doing archeology in the ancient ruins hidden in the ghost mountains, during the ghost hunger games. i am literally so sat.

WE’RE GOING TO THE GHOST HUNGER GAMES, BABYY. hell yeah!!!

“he was trying to copy my blood rain aesthetic” is a crazy line, hua cheng. lmfao

call me xie lian the way i don’t know whether to laugh or cry

can i just say this volume has by FAR the best cover art? the waist grab is so hot i’m sorryyyy

what if one man loved you more than all the world loved the god of gods, the emperor of heaven? the lanterns… i feel dizzy
