WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME THIS BOOK IS FUNNY?
What I expected: Badly translated, lots of descriptions of scenery, too many names and clans to keep track of, young guys training in some kind of academy, honestly a bit of a slog unless you like that kind of thing.
What I'm getting: NOT THAT.
Just lots of laughs, entertaining adventures, fun times. Who knew?

His leg was completely covered with the bruising black curse mark. Lan Wangji stared at it for a good moment before he said, greatly embittered at the sight, “I was only gone for a few hours.”
That'll teach you to leave him unsupervised.

If it looks like I’m reading this epic 5-volume, 2000-page story from beginning to end for a third consecutive time without taking a break to read anything else… it’s because I am.

"Wei Wuxian put away the flute and was just about to clean up the corpse parts strewn on the ground"
I love how this is just a casual, thowaway sentence.

I felt stuck in a phase where I had no interest in reading AT ALL, then Linda nudged me toward this, and yay! It's so much fun. 😃
🥳🥳🥳 So glad you're enjoying it, Teal.

Any time. 😇
Yes, it's pretty funny. All MXTX books are, imo. Glad you're enjoying it!

I'm looking forward to pick this up :D
“WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME THIS BOOK IS FUNNY?” is one of the most traumatic and disturbing series i ever read💀💀

But the author has a great sense of humor! And of course I'm only in book 1, so who knows what horrors lie ahead? Well, apparently anyone who's read the entire series. 😂 So I guess I'll enjoy the lols while I can.

I'm afraid I'll be obsessed with the story once I start reading it 😅
Thanks to Xia, this one has been on my radar and my kindle for freaking EVER. But you might have just pushed it over the edge (in a good way). What I expected and didn't expect was pretty much exactly the same.

I found Alessia's comment about the series being traumatic and disturbing really encouraging, because if it can do that AND be funny...? That's like hitting the book jackpot!

You'll just have to pull her in too. 🤭

I'm sure I can get her hooked on the manhua, the novels would be more difficult, but I can try! XD
