shen yuan/shen qingqiu’s narration adds so much charm in his sarcasm, but he’s also really diligent and takes this approach to these quests he’s meant to solve that are really compelling.
the second volume is the one filled with the most angst, and it’s also my most favorite of the series, so i’m half-anticipating / half-dreading watching that diligence he takes to these quests unravel in the face of luo binghe, who deviates from the story more than sqq will expect. gah it’s all so exciting!!

Your mileage may vary, but to my eye almost every scene of romantic or sexual intimacy is coerced, painful, or in some way non-consensual. These content warnings are for the series as a whole, not for the first volume specifically, which doesn't feature such scenes. The first volume is more concerned with childhood bullying and a fixation on death and dismemberment.shelbybelby's review

I actually started reading the novel even before the official translation came out. However, I didn't finish it. I had stopped somewhere in the middle. The novel didn't intrigued me as much as MDZS had (I've read it before reading SVSSS and my heart still belongs to Wangxian). However in this break I had learned the crucial piece of information: MXTX wrote this for her own amusement. Her work should not be take (to) seriously. With this I could finally enjoy SVSSS and I LOVED it.
