I've only read the first book and I'm already loving this series. I fell in love with Mo Ran immediately. Is this what love at first sight feels like? He's such a funny character, and honestly we vibe so hard. All the characters are fantastic. Their personalities shine through in their interactions with one another. It's very easy to love them all. At first I found myself shipping Mo Ran and Shi Mei, and while I still ship them it has become easier to root for his Shizun. 

The plot is interesting so far. I'm very curious to see where things go from here and I can't wait to untangle the mystery that is being laid out. I'll have to buy the next book ASAP since my library doesn't have it. (There's always inter-library loans but I like to read digital.)

This is definitely a series I want to have in my personal collection.

It started off a little slow for me, but towards the end, everything started happening, and it was getting really good. I honestly can't wait to start Vol. 2. I am so annoyed (not in a bad way) with all of the misunderstandings that I want to bang my head against a wall!!!! Also devastated that right at the end when
Chu Wanning was saving Mo Ran, he didn't know it was actually CW since the bodies were swapped, and since the book ended after that, so now we don't know if/when he finds out it wasn't Shi Mei. 😭

I found the translations too poor, and the content too unsuitable. It was very very triggering, which made the jokes come off wrong.
