The grandmaster is demonic cultivation is originally posted as a web novel with about 1000 pages so it kinda makes sense that it’s slow in the first part. I really recommend continuing it if you’re up to it, it gets better and better. Also, the official translation wasn’t really done well which was really disappointing 😭😭 the fan translation was wayyyyy better

STOP IT are we all in reading slumps rn?? i spent 8 hours redoing my notion yesterday and half that before yesterday and i haven't read anything in like a week 🤩. and you're out here slaying, girlbossing, reading 200 pages and actually trying to get yourself out of it and here i am doing nothing and continuing to procrastinate reading by watching this video 😭. anyways loved this sm

to be honest, kudos to anyone who got into mdzs through the translations, before the donghua and the drama came out. Y'all were in the trenches fr fr 😂 I recommend watching the donghua (animation) first! It organizes the chapters of the novel in a way that makes more sense tbh, and it's more fast paced than the drama which takes forever to get to the point (don't get me wrong, it's enjoyable anyways, and it kinda canonizes a fan-theory that had been brewing for years 👀, so it's fanservice even though it lacks on-screen romance)

Personally, I don't like The Untamed. Mo Dao Zu Shi (Grand Master of Demonic Cultivation) is my favorite fantasy, along with Tian Guan Ci Fu (another fantasy by the same author), but my first contact with her work was the Mo Dao Zu Shi anime which, in my opinion, is an adaptation much better (and faithful) than The Untaimed. The book starts really slow and I probably read the series at an incredible speed because I already knew the story from the Anime... Since you're in an Anime phase, look for Mo Dao Zu Shi to watch. You have the full story in an adaptation that's pretty faithful to the books.

Ahhhhh 1 hour long video of my favourite booktuber ?!?

Mo dao zu shi actually has a Chinese anime adaptation which I think is one of the reasons so many people enjoy that series. I heard the drama was so bad compared to the anime. May be try an episode just to feel the vibes. Idk I hope you'll enjoy it more ❤

You actually weren't far off when talking about the origin or Alice's Adventures in Wonderland! It was originally a story Lewis Carroll was telling his friends' daughters while looking after them on a trip and everything in the book is heavily inspired by their real lives, down to Alice herself - she is supposed to be an insert for one of the daughters, whose name was, you guessed it, Alice. Her sister inspired the character of the Dodo, all of the boat and water imagery is because they were on a boat at the time and so on. It's interesting to look into the story's origin and the author if you have the time because he was kind of a wacky character himself; for example, Lewis Carroll isn't even his real name and he was professionally a mathematician, not an author. In any case, I am so glad you liked the book! It's one of my all-time favorites, I've lost count of how many times I've read it or had my mother read it to me before I could read myself. First book I ever read fully in English, too.

👑 yesss love the long videos!! So happy to see you out of the reading slump, and can't wait for your thoughts on Anxious People!! ❤

seeing you read Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation makes me sooooo excited omgggg lol I would recommend you to read Heaven Official's Blessing by the same author. It's their most recent work and it's my personal favorite out of the three series

you nailed this!! anxious people is just marvelous ❤👑

watching your videos is what takes me out of a reading slump 😫😫😫 thank u bella ily

"My mind was just not in it- I was like I just wanna binge anime" it's so relieving to see someone else going through the same mentality as I am. I've neglected so many of my hobbies while studying architecture and now I'm like an empty vessel trailing from place to place. I was thinking that perhaps it's not the loss of my character that I need to regain but more so a rebirth as I become someone new. I like the idea you conveyed that these parts of us are yearning to see the light again and so we have to feed them! That's nice and I think I'll put it to the test.

I'm living for these long videos 👑

The thing about Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation it's that for some reason it's divided in 5 vol when the story itself it's only one really big book. So reading one vol at the time might make you feel that the book it's not complete or has little plot

I love that she calls her patrons ‘patreons’, it just makes it feel even more ✨exclusive✨ ya know?

Well demonic cultivation is a slow burning story, at first many things will be uncleared but later on the real magic starts, I have not read the novel yet so I don’t know how the English translation has justified to this masterpiece, but I think you shud give it a second try, but this time try to read the Manga first, the pictorial depiction will help u with better understanding, I did the same too nd finished the whole manga in two days binge sitting, it’s readily available in manga site, but man Wei wuxian’s character is epic , he is mischievous no doubt, but very righteous in heart, on later chapters you wil understand if u read ;) ✌🏻

I totally get how you felt at the beginning. I have so many books to read yet I just get stuck in the void and watch TV for hours. I am slowly trying to get into my TBR list listening to audible books on libby walking to work. That has helped me get out of my rut.
