4.0

Pretty solid start for a series.  There's a huge cast of characters who have various forms of address so it can be difficult to keep track of everything in the beginning.

The dynamic between Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji is hard to describe of only because you don't know the whole history they have yet, nor where it will go in the future.  So far, one is basically a class clown/jock type while the other is a stoic nerd type and I'm having a great time with it.

4.0. Read after watching the show The Untamed. A good time! I respect the choices the show made in changing from the novels, but I’m enjoying the novels as well! Certainly easier to keep track of things when I can read them though! 

Plot summary for my purposes:

This volume tracks WWX dying, waking up in Mo Xuanyu’s body, the Mo Manor stuff, Mt. Dafan stuff, going to Cloud Recesses and WWX being a goof, one quick flashback to WWX and LWJ meeting for the first time and general Cloud Recesses era WWX content, subduing the arm, going to the Nie Burial Tomb and finding Jin Ling in a wall, getting the leggies, going to Yueyang, drunk LWJ content, finding the torso at the Chang clan graveyard, then leaving for coffin town.
