Unfortunately I can't rate it much higher because:
a) There's a lot of instances where the story flashes back to past events but the transition between past and present is clunky and left me scratching my head trying to figure out what happened where and when (even with a timeline of everything explained to me).
b) This is an extremely minor nitpick but there are so many instances Wei Wuxian is described as laughing or cackling in response to a lot of situations. This wouldn't be so bad if it was one or two situations but I feel like it's overdone to the point it feels like if anything mildly amusing happens, he'll be cackling like a hyena.

I’ll probably continue this series because those two certainly got to me. There were scenes I adored in this book, like the flashback chapter, and I hope there will be more for me to love in the next books. (and i should actually look at the glossary more instead of going “eeeh i’ll figure it out. i did, in fact, not figure it out)
