Grandmaster of demonic cultivation is such a great novel. i finished this a year ago and i still regularly go back and reread scenes. 

like wangxian invented love i do not make the rules.

wei wuxian is such a good main character. like he's powerful, he's funny, he's kind, he's morally gray, he's insane. he has it all i love him so much.

lan wangji man he's just so amazing. like the absolute dedication i love him so much.
perfect rule following kid breaking all sorts of rules because he's in love w wei wuxian and he does all of it without expecting anything in return


god wangxian are truly such a great couple and they have one of the best confession scenes ever
it's so funny that everyone was like "why tf did y'all stay in separate rooms why isn't wangji w you" wei wuxian: "what why would we? why would he be with me?" everyone: "idk cuz he's in love with you." wei wuxian: "HE'S IN LOVE WITH ME??" peak absolute peak


i think about xiao xingchen and yi city arc daily im telling you it changed my brain chemistry.

i absolutely loved the juniors. wen qing and jiang yanli
rip queens
can both step on me.

bro im telling you this is a danmei must and also watch the untamed. the actors show the best example of eyefucking i've ever seen in a censored show ever. like at times i forget the untamed is even censored.

sidenote the extras are INSANE. i read this before i knew what was up with danmei extras and when i got to THAT scene with bichen i had to turn my phone off and sit in silence for 20 minutes to process what i had just read.

Wow, I’m taken aback for words.  This series has given me everything I could ask for: transformations, reveals, a hero’s villain origin story, villains just for the sake of evil, slow burn romance, a good mixture of smut and fluff, great plot and story and characters, it’s all there. It does get a bit confusing if you’re not familiar with how naming goes in this book, but once you catch on it gets easier.  This was such a great read.  Thank you, Alicia, for holding me hostage and keeping me from watching its show equivalent until I finished this.

Absolutely gorgeous book. I haven't cried in months, and this had me in tears several times. Not only is the story incredible, the translation is also done so well (much better than the official translation, that's for sure). Overall, this just has so much heart and soul in it, and it genuinely restored my faith in humanity. Go read it (only after checking the content warnings, tho, it can be very intense).
