Check out my follow-up video where I read the top 3 books from this video and if they lived up to expectations or not: th-cam.com/video/wk33ZLpXg3o/w-d-xo.html
the hard part of the first chapter challenge with fantasy books is that you either get a bunch of world building or you just don't know what's going on
Heaven Official's Blessing is one of those novels where it just builds and builds on itself, each volume giving you an ever clearer picture of the themes of the story, and it comes together in the end like a beautiful puzzle where so many things youve wanted to happen come to fruition. But it is a BIG time investment at 8 volumes. One of my favs for sure.
You described it perfectly! I love this series, and the slow build of the intrigue, characters back stories, relationships etc is one of the main reasons
I agree watching the show first can really help contextualize the story, esp if it’s your first experience with Danmei. Plus The Untamed is a great show on its own 😊
i love heaven official's blessing and mdzs (the grandmaster one) wei wuxian is actully one of my favorite characters from the genre as a whole tbh. i find the mdzs book openbing with "rejoice, wei wuxian is dead" was quite a fun hook to get you into that first chapter. i highly recommended the animed shows for both, theyre really well animated and i found with heaven official's blessing especially it helped me get more into the world
@@GavinReadsItAllwith danmei the stories are more slow and more intricate, it's better to get a visual image first through the adaptations to get into the thing because is so different and the romance are very slow burn too, maybe because of the censorship things happens more in the extras, but there are explicit scenes in the novels
@@morganarosana true. With tgcf I found the first book very slow to read through but watching the show along with it really helped because I could visualize what I was reading. Mdzs has the fun issue of...all the adaptations can be a slog because they basically dump what is essentially a long flashback on you that takes up half the run time, when in the novels the flashbacks were more dispersed
I'm so excited Ascension is at the top! It's a really good novel and the tension held my attention the whole way through. Can't wait to see how you like the full thing 😊
your reaction to kitty swatting at the camera had me choking on my salad. (i know, eating salad, my first mistake i know) also ugh we better agree on where sleeping girls lie because i just paid full price for that one!
Group read of “A Fate Inked in Blood” during the Norway trip?! 😜 I am just so excited for it haha! Can’t wait to see how you feel about all of these books in the end! 💜
Firstly can I say the thumb nail is Chefs Kiss And secondly another amazing video, I’ve read a few on your list and Godkiller was in my top 10 of best books last year. Hope you enjoy it.
I found Mo Dao Zu Shi (Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation) through the anime and live action TV shows. (Yes, this series was so popular that it got adapted in both formats. The live action name was changed to The Untamed, and the gay content could only be hinted at because of censorship.) It's absolutely amazing and I'm so frustrated that the first chapter of book 1 is so short because otherwise I think you would have loved it as much as Heaven's Official Blessing. Edit- There's awesome fanvids of The Untamed on TH-cam if you want short teasers to give you an idea of the chaotic slowburn romantic madness that is this series. But the books definitely win since the romance was front and center rather than hinted at.
This was a fun idea and I liked your vlog. Interestingly, it seems like I am sort of doing my own version of this duel of books because I have recently begun reading several books, and I read until I feel like changing things up. Some books held me for one or two chapters, and some for longer, and one until I completed it in one sitting and started the next in the series (the short story prequel to the Murderbot Diaries). That edition of Hurricane Wars is stunning, Godkiller and Voyage of the Damned as well.
This was so fun to watch. The Book of Most Precious Substance is very smutty you’ll like it. I totally want to see a vlog of you reading some of these.
I was going to say the first one you said about Halloween horror night houses, All Hallows reminds me of that - then you whipped it out 😊 I really enjoyed it! Couldn’t put it down!
thats a crazy thumbnail gavin! Also hehe im glad you're giving danmei a shot! Highly recommend the liveaction for grandmaster of demonic cultivation!!!
Love the video! I definitely recommend starting with Heaven Official's Blessing before you get into Grandmaster just because I think the story is a bit easier to follow for your first danmei novel ❤
That's also why I'm sad there wasn't the first volume of Scum villain's self-saving system, since it's the shortest and I feel it's even easier than HOB to follow
Loved this style of video! In my year of trying to dnf books I’m not enjoying, I think I’m also going to read a chapter or two and then decide if I want to continue!
"This is the poundland version of that video" 😂 The underjacket for A Fate Inked in Blood is GORGEOUS 😍 Oh my Ascension. Amazing opening but I was meh the rest of the time.
I just wanted to recommend the re:zero series of novels to you about a boy that gets sent to a fantasy world and discovers he has a power “return by death” after he dies he reawakens at a safe place in a death loop it’s a character driven series that I just love
Really fun video! ❤ Would be fun to have these in the Slice of live vlog. Maybe the first 3 and then if you have time you can read some random ones as well Salem's lot is my favorite SK book. Hope you enjoy it when you read it
This was so cool. I loved seeing where the books would fall. My sis got me the grandmaster book last year and it was so fun to start reading it and watch the show after.I could not get an arc of where sleeping girls lie but still hope to read it. I put ascension on my tbr after this. hope you enjoy what you pick.
ok serving us jawline realness in the thumbnail 💅🏻 also not calling yours the poundland version of the video 😂 so interested to see if you like butcher & blackbird 👀
I am currently reading Where Sleeping Girls Lie, it's good but also surprisingly long. The first chapter of Godkiller was a lot, I really liked it, too. Can't wait to read the 2nd book in the series soon.
If anyone is interested and it hasnt been mentioned yet. Im pretty sure the haunted house Gav is talking about is McKamey Manor operated by Russ McKamey and the video i watched about the haunted house was WILD by the youtuber Primink
The List of Suspicious Things sounds soo good. Loved this video, it would be interesting to do a vlog for top few then a vlog for bottom few and see if you would change the ranking
Loved this video concept so much! Can we get a follow up video with your actual ranking of the 21 books after you finish all? I would love to know if you think the first chapter was actually reflective of the book itself or not!
I absolutely loved Godkiller and just bought the sequel Sunbringer which I'm super excited about. I've also never read Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation but I watched the Chinese drama, and it broke me. It is amazing!
I’ve read All Hallows and I loved it. There’s a lot of criticism that it’s slow moving and that’s true at the beginning, with a lot of time spent setting the scene and introducing characters, but then it really takes off.
The thing about Danmei is it’s a full story split into many parts since it’s been translated so you have to really still with it and they’re pretty slow burn
Seems like I'm on a same wave as Gavin - I was equally inspired by Kayla to read first chapters of my unread books. Sort of a taste test - most of them come from book boxes after all and I didn't actively pick them based on synopsis or reviews.😸
Heavens official blessing has my heart ! specifically when sang lang is around. He’s just one of those characters you just get bored and sad when he’s not there. Especially with his “I hate everyone but you” attitude. I wholeheartedly believe I didn’t enjoy the first volume very much just because xie Lians bf wasn’t there a lot 😂
I think you would really love A River Enchanted and it’s sequel A Fire Endless (duology light fantasy with romance and amazing characters/magical setting)
Of this list of books I've only read Heaven Official's Blessing and I really enjoyed it. Hopefully you enjoy it as well when you get to it. I am planning to read Butcher and Blackbird soon. I'm excited to get started.
I also thought at first I was reading like a bad cringy sitcom at the beginning of Voyage of the Damned. However it turns deep and shows everything he is going through underneath his facade and I started liking Ganymedes a lot more. You should give it a try after the first few chapters it turns good once you get to know him deeper and even emotional 😢 I liked the book a lot, maybe because I am a sucker for books that leave me wrecked 💀
The Book of the Most Precious Substance is one giant heated lust-fest in the very best way, it just goes further and further with each chapter 😂 also All Hallows had a great atmosphere, really addictive!
For Voyage of the Damned, character definitely doesn't change style for the entire book and it remains very silly for the whole story - the murder mystery is super fun, but the MC is definitely a very specific kind of MC lol
I love this idea, I need to try this too when I cant choose what to read again. But what if I like all the first chapters? 🙈 And what are the odds of undulate coming up in a first chapter, that was so funny.😂
As someone who has read a book about a serial killer in their home town who was friends with my grandpa and knew my dad, I gotta say it's wild when the story is about people you now.
I actually really loved Voyage of the Damned. Ganymedes is so EXTRA and funny and his personality shined off the page which to me feels rare nowadays. I can see how people wouldn't like him, but to me the exact opposite. Absolutely adored him. I really liked the mystery of this too and it didn't pull punches. I have also read Heaven's Official Blessing and it's definitely slow moving. I don't know if the romance even felt there in the whole first book? Maybe I need to reread it but I don't remember anything really romantic happening? It seems to be a slow slow burn. I definitely want to keep going though.
Highly recommend Last to Leave the Room on audiobook. I tried reading it physically first but set it down. I ended up listening to it over the span of 2 days and omg I have never gotten such a visceral feeling of anxiety and dread from a horror novel before. It’s slow to get into I admit, but boy does the author know how to build up from mildly-zany-and-unsettling into straight up horrific-down-spiral.
Oh Voyage of the Damned was SO good! Once they are on the ship, it turns into a murder mystery with magic and a lovely queer romance!! If you haven't gotten around to it, I definitely recommend you do!! :D
It would be very interesting to see, once you’ve read all the books, whether their position in your stack changes at all and why… sort of like a reflection of did the first chapter of the book give you a solid prediction of the overall enjoyment of the story. Could be a long term project 🤷♀️
Grandmaster of Demonic cultivation is an amazing story. You should definitely give it a real go They made a live action show called the untamed, a dongua thats 3 seasons, a radio drama, comics, another spoof dongua Its a huge story, and 100% deserve all the attention For heaven officals blessing, they have 2 seasons dongua currently, and did start on a live action (cancelled), and also a comic series Its also an amazing story, and as you said it starts out better than Grandmaster, the authour just got better with every book
Prologues shouldn't count 😅 you should read the actual 1st chapter after the prologue as well 😂 Just read "Heaven Official 's Blessing" for god's sake and if you don't become obsessed I'll shut up and never tell you to read a book again 😂
😮The Chinese romance sounds really interesting 😊I've seen Chinese dramas about gods and other beings that live in heaven and travel to earth back and forth ... Don't remember names 😅They're always really magical so that book could be wonderful! I'm interested in voyage of the dammed too, that sounds intriguing and the sinking city one
@@GavinReadsItAll Pretty sure you'll love it! It's a short read, but a lot happens and the very snappy writing is very good 🙂 Great world-building and character portrayals, too. Now I'm just waiting for my (delayed by 2 months 😞) pre-ordered copy of Sunbringer to arrive. Was out on 15th Feb, but I'm not getting it until April hmfphfffffff.
Check out my follow-up video where I read the top 3 books from this video and if they lived up to expectations or not: th-cam.com/video/wk33ZLpXg3o/w-d-xo.html
the hard part of the first chapter challenge with fantasy books is that you either get a bunch of world building or you just don't know what's going on
EXACTLY I think I should have kept the fantasy out of this video and did a different challenge maybe with the first 3 chapters or something?
Yeah fantasy books are tough. Maybe first 100 pages?
I would love to see a video where Ash and tobu each pick a book for you to read :)
Awww me too, I don't know why I haven't even tried that yet!
@@GavinReadsItAll mabye one you could! Have the best life Gavin you rock!
Heaven Official's Blessing is one of those novels where it just builds and builds on itself, each volume giving you an ever clearer picture of the themes of the story, and it comes together in the end like a beautiful puzzle where so many things youve wanted to happen come to fruition.

You described it perfectly! I love this series, and the slow build of the intrigue, characters back stories, relationships etc is one of the main reasons
I’m glad you’ve both Grandmaster and HOB! For grandmaster I would recommend watching the donghua/anime or the live action to get the general idea.
Ooo perfect thanks for the recommendation
I agree watching the show first can really help contextualize the story, esp if it’s your first experience with Danmei. Plus The Untamed is a great show on its own 😊
I'd love to see a video in the future of your updated ranking when you finish reading all of them.
Second this!!
i love heaven official's blessing and mdzs (the grandmaster one) wei wuxian is actully one of my favorite characters from the genre as a whole tbh. i find the mdzs book openbing with "rejoice, wei wuxian is dead" was quite a fun hook to get you into that first chapter. i highly recommended the animed shows for both, theyre really well animated and i found with heaven official's blessing especially it helped me get more into the world
Ooo thanks for the recommendation

„I ordered food because my air fryer broke, at least that’s my excuse..“ me at least once a week 😂😂
Having a very rough mental health day today and so glad to see this video. Going to climb into bed with a cup od tea and watch.
Sending you love ❤
Same here and will grab a cuppa in solidarity to enjoy Gavin’s new gem. Hope you feel better soon 🙏🏽
@@jenjenbc2194 hugs
I'm so excited Ascension is at the top! It's a really good novel and the tension held my attention the whole way through. Can't wait to see how you like the full thing 😊
Oh I'm so glad the full book of Ascension is just as good as the opening chapter! Yay!
I had so much fun reading Ascension. Wild ride and bonkers!
So glad you read the first chapter of Godkiller for this and liked it! ❤🎉
It was SO good!!
your reaction to kitty swatting at the camera had me choking on my salad. (i know, eating salad, my first mistake i know)
also ugh we better agree on where sleeping girls lie because i just paid full price for that one!
I'm also hoping we agree on Where Sleeping Girls Lie otherwise we'll both look foolish
The covers of so many of these are beautiful! Plus, I love anything that starts with a gorgeous map, it's the precursor to a good story.
The self control with not just sitting and reading those books, you are STRONG Gav! 😂
So excited for Gavin to try out some Danmei!
That “dead eye” shot at 25:48 was GORGEOUS and kind of hilarious too
Group read of “A Fate Inked in Blood” during the Norway trip?! 😜 I am just so excited for it haha! Can’t wait to see how you feel about all of these books in the end! 💜
Such a good thumbnail!
Ascension sounds so interesting, adding it to my tbr!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Firstly can I say the thumb nail is Chefs Kiss
And secondly another amazing video, I’ve read a few on your list and Godkiller was in my top 10 of best books last year. Hope you enjoy it.
I totally agree! I saw the thumbnail and was like "ok side profile" 🔥

Yay glad I could tell you about it, I am so excited to read the rest of it so I hope we both end up loving it
Getting cozy on the couch with my cat, we are ready to watch!

That edition of Hurricane Wars is stunning, Godkiller and Voyage of the Damned as well.
I love this idea, I'll definitely do this next time I can't decide what to read next and pick based on what intrigued me most.
I hope that approach works for you, it can be very fun when deciding to read something
This was so fun to watch. The Book of Most Precious Substance is very smutty you’ll like it. I totally want to see a vlog of you reading some of these.
I was going to say the first one you said about Halloween horror night houses, All Hallows reminds me of that - then you whipped it out 😊

I would love more videos like this! It's such a fun concept.
thats a crazy thumbnail gavin! Also hehe im glad you're giving danmei a shot! Highly recommend the liveaction for grandmaster of demonic cultivation!!!
The cat noise on Kayla's reading sprints scares me too 😂
Love the video! I definitely recommend starting with Heaven Official's Blessing before you get into Grandmaster just because I think the story is a bit easier to follow for your first danmei novel ❤

I've yet to read Scum Villain but it's been on my tbr for a minute. Maybe this is my sign to finally pick it up
Thank you Gav, Your video just brightened my day ❤ just thank you.
I love try a chapter videos like this!! Ahhh you’re making me want to pick up Ascension 👀
Also lol I just gave Butcher and Blackbird one star 🫣 it was just not for me hahahha
Loved this style of video! In my year of trying to dnf books I’m not enjoying, I think I’m also going to read a chapter or two and then decide if I want to continue!
"This is the poundland version of that video" 😂
The underjacket for A Fate Inked in Blood is GORGEOUS 😍
Oh my Ascension. Amazing opening but I was meh the rest of the time.
Omg when i tell you how i am now obsessed with Danmei and Heaven Official's Blessing has my heart and soul right now.

I love the legos in the background!!
'people call him piss fish' - I SNORTED!
I absolutely loved Godkiller and just bought the sequel Sunbringer which I'm super excited about.
I've also never read Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation but I watched the Chinese drama, and it broke me. It is amazing!
I got way too invested in this! Genuinely gasped when books got dethroned 😸
Ahhh love the thumbnail ✨

Every time I read orb weaver I immediately thought dream weaver and THAT song wouldn’t stop playing in my head
Heavens official blessing has my heart ! specifically when sang lang is around. He’s just one of those characters you just get bored and sad when he’s not there. Especially with his “I hate everyone but you” attitude. I wholeheartedly believe I didn’t enjoy the first volume very much just because xie Lians bf wasn’t there a lot 😂
There’s no better way to spend a Friday than watching Gavin’s new video with a fish finger sandwich 🥪🙂

Salem’s lot is probably my favorite Stephen king book so far!!
I also thought at first I was reading like a bad cringy sitcom at the beginning of Voyage of the Damned. However it turns deep and shows everything he is going through underneath his facade and I started liking Ganymedes a lot more. You should give it a try after the first few chapters it turns good once you get to know him deeper and even emotional 😢 I liked the book a lot, maybe because I am a sucker for books that leave me wrecked 💀
That's good to know, I look forward to reading the rest at some point
Ah my favourite comfort TH-camr
I thought you were younger than me but I'm also 31 and that explains why we're nostalgic for all the same things!
The Book of the Most Precious Substance is one giant heated lust-fest in the very best way, it just goes further and further with each chapter 😂 also All Hallows had a great atmosphere, really addictive!
can't wait to see you rank your top 5.
You could do a video about book box books and if they're worth it so you could include some of your books from this video
For Voyage of the Damned, character definitely doesn't change style for the entire book and it remains very silly for the whole story - the murder mystery is super fun, but the MC is definitely a very specific kind of MC lol
I love this idea, I need to try this too when I cant choose what to read again. But what if I like all the first chapters? 🙈 And what are the odds of undulate coming up in a first chapter, that was so funny.😂
As someone who has read a book about a serial killer in their home town who was friends with my grandpa and knew my dad, I gotta say it's wild when the story is about people you now.
I am moving Asention up the list, I just bought it bc it was so pretty!
It took me 2 tries to get into danmei since im not familiar with Chinese culture. MXTX is where I started into danmei and now im obsessed.
‘Our Wives Under The Sea’ HELLO SAPPHIC SAGA
Should be VERY good
I actually really loved Voyage of the Damned. Ganymedes is so EXTRA and funny and his personality shined off the page which to me feels rare nowadays. I can see how people wouldn't like him, but to me the exact opposite. Absolutely adored him. I really liked the mystery of this too and it didn't pull punches.
I have also read Heaven's Official Blessing and it's definitely slow moving. I don't know if the romance even felt there in the whole first book? Maybe I need to reread it but I don't remember anything really romantic happening? It seems to be a slow slow burn. I definitely want to keep going though.

Thank you 😄
Butcher and Blackbird is soo good. 😅
So excited, 90% of people I follow have enjoyed it

Oh Voyage of the Damned was SO good! Once they are on the ship, it turns into a murder mystery with magic and a lovely queer romance!! If you haven't gotten around to it, I definitely recommend you do!! :D
It would be very interesting to see, once you’ve read all the books, whether their position in your stack changes at all and why… sort of like a reflection of did the first chapter of the book give you a solid prediction of the overall enjoyment of the story. Could be a long term project 🤷♀️
Our Wives was so weird but so good ❤
Grandmaster of Demonic cultivation is an amazing story. You should definitely give it a real go
They made a live action show called the untamed, a dongua thats 3 seasons, a radio drama, comics, another spoof dongua
Its a huge story, and 100% deserve all the attention
For heaven officals blessing, they have 2 seasons dongua currently, and did start on a live action (cancelled), and also a comic series
Its also an amazing story, and as you said it starts out better than Grandmaster, the authour just got better with every book
8:16 mckamey manor!! That place is W I L D and people PAY money to do it
I genuinely couldn't be one of those people
I think the anime for Heaven’s Official Blessing is on Crunchyroll
gavin just casually having 21 current reads lol
Prologues shouldn't count 😅 you should read the actual 1st chapter after the prologue as well 😂 Just read "Heaven Official 's Blessing" for god's sake and if you don't become obsessed I'll shut up and never tell you to read a book again 😂
Hi Gavin, first, what's poundland? Sounds kinky, but at age 60, everything sounds kinky to me. 😊
im gonna stare into your bedroom window until you read godkiller
Perfect, I’ll never read it so I can keep you in my window watching me forever and ever 👁️🫦👁️
As someone who has read all 8 books of Heaven Official's Blessing. I highly recommend it. It is an amazing series
😮The Chinese romance sounds really interesting 😊I've seen Chinese dramas about gods and other beings that live in heaven and travel to earth back and forth ... Don't remember names 😅They're always really magical so that book could be wonderful! I'm interested in voyage of the dammed too, that sounds intriguing and the sinking city one
BRB, stealing your lego.
Godkiller! It's excellent♥
Can't wait to read the rest
@@GavinReadsItAll Pretty sure you'll love it! It's a short read, but a lot happens and the very snappy writing is very good 🙂 Great world-building and character portrayals, too.
