Meng Xi Shi: Thousand Autumns, book 1
That was fun in many ways, but also exasperating because of the thesaurus of how many beautiful, divine, perfect, enchanting ways one's robes/hands/legs/hair can flow/ripple/tremble in the breeze...

Is Meng Xi Shi 梦溪石's pen name ('dream creek stone') a reference to Shen Kuo's Dream Pool Essays / Meng Xi Bi Tan 梦溪笔谈 ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_Pool_Essays
One of those moments where you put two things together and feel a quantum superposition of foolish for not noticing before, and foolish for making things up! In my defense, the title of Dream Pool Essays is the only place I have ever seen 溪 translated as 'pool'. I'm so curious whether this is a real reference.
Just wrote a review for Meng Xi Shi's third volume of "Thousand Autumns" 🌸

4/5: Meng Xi Shi’s “Thousand Autumns” third volume opens with Yan Wushi being attacked by five other martial artists who work together to defeat him. There is no honour in this type attack but it is effective, which leaves him so badly injured that he would most certainly have died if Shen Qiao’s had not rescued him. Despite Yan Wushi’s betrayal in the previous volume, Shen Qiao saves him and spends the next section of the book, helping him heal.

Reading chapter 9, volume 1 of “Thousand Autumns” 🌸 This first volume feels as if it is laying the groundwork for the main plot and couple. Shen Qiao’s character and backstory are a mystery even to himself because of his injury and there seems to be no rush to unveil his past.
Shen Qiao’s relationship with the young Chen Gong shows that he is a truly nice person. His instincts are clearly still intact but all his abilities + even his health are compromised.
Have begun reading “Thousand Autumns” by Meng Xi Shi 🌸 Am only on chapter 4 but it seems to be well written with good characterization and philosophical reflections. It opens quite suddenly with Shen Qiao falling off a cliff and Yan Wushi deciding to have him nursed back to health. They are clearly very different people so it will be interesting to follow their relationship unfold.
