[Review of volumes 1–3] Basically, this is the AO3 tag "Crack treated seriously." Shen Qingqiu is such a hilarious narrator who develops along with the story he transmigrated into as his actions trigger changes in the characters and world around him. The characters become more sympathetic and complex as SQQ gives them the opportunity to break free from their archetypes. Luo Binghe changes, most of all, from a toxically masculine male harem protagonist into a lovesick fool who yearns for his shizun. Everything is wrapped up in SQQ's hilariously scathing and meta commentary on web fiction tropes to make this a super fun and engaging read. Very excited to get to the extras!

Sqq feelings for lbh seemed so sudden and rushed, it was kind of disappointing... seems like sqq got with him just because he felt he had to.

I didn't love the two main characters of this. They aren't on screen together almost ever and when they are they don't really like each other. There is a lot going on to cause it but it just feels like mislead obsession and a master who gives up holding the line and is worn down into having a relationship. It also just has a lot of forced physical stuff. Idk this one wasn't for me.

Love every first 3 books, mix of funny, cute, dumb and emotional moments. Although...
The fuck or die, r*pe scene was a big no for me. Not at all necessary, was supposed to be funny i guess but left me with a bad feeling.
This couple is everything but a sain, consentual, and communicating one. They are toxic. But i love the books anyways, it took me by surprise at times and left me kicking my feet from most of it.
