Xiao Chiye's obsession with Shen Zechuan's nape...

So much infodumping via dialogue. It's more bearable now that I'm halfway through, but the first 100 pages were rough. Did not want to pick the book back up because it felt like homework.

This book throws you into the deep end with no context and introduces a new character every two pages.
