The plot is very attractive and it is a good mystery novel to take with you. The characters in the novel are profound and vivid
The emotional line and the crime-solving line run parallel and intertwined, and there are subtle relationships between several couples. The relationship between characters and their psychology are worth pondering
Extremely Ordinary is a mystery novel, and I don't know how it qualifies to win the Mao Dun Literature Award.
At first I didn't understand why the book was called "Echo", but when I read it to the end, it really resonated in my heart.
Not so good
Has the Mao Dun Literature Prize degenerated into this? I really endured it until I read it. I felt like a psychotic female policewoman. The crime-solving part was not attractive, and the relationship with my family was like a fantasy. I personally didn't like the language organization style of this book. The author may have wanted to create a dual pressure that interweaves family and work, but the writing made people feel that there was neither the intense tension of the crime-solving part nor the fascinating and immersive sense of family conflicts. What is this? I originally felt that "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is not as good as "Flowers". Only part of the content is very attractive and the ending is a bit sloppy. But there is no harm if there is no comparison. This book is far worse than "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains". If it weren't for the Mao Dun Literature Award, I would definitely not be able to read it. Don't know if I'm alone?
Feelings do not rely on evidence, and there is no eternal love
But don't be too persistent, persistence will bring paranoia and pain. The third party should not be too persistent and insist on starting a family with the cheater. He will choose you because of the novelty, and when he gets tired of it, you will cheat on others again. Cheating people should not be too persistent and want eternal freshness to prove that they are alive. The evil things will definitely come back to bite them in the end; idealists should not be too persistent in pursuing perfection or eternal love. When you no longer love, don't be too persistent and have to find an excuse.
Compromise again and again, accommodation again and again, not because of how important you are to me, but because I know that I will regret if you leave, but I don't want your regret to become forever in the past many years later. At that time, we were different. So you learn to be tolerant, tolerant, and caring towards your next person. I don't know when you will wake up, and I don't know when I will let go.
Very pretty
I don't know much about literature, so I can only tell you my impressions. It's still very good to read. My writing skills are much better than online writing. It's very comfortable to watch. The plot is also very attractive. I haven't read a book in a row for a long time.
I didn't want to read it after reading Chapter 30, it was boring.
This article is not suitable for listening to. The piles of "he said" and "she said" just made me confused.
