The writing is excellent; it's a very novel time-travel novel. It has the dramatic twists and turns of historical fiction and the intricate reasoning of crime novels. The psychological portrayal of the characters is also very delicate. Although it's a time-travel novel, with both the male and female leads transmigrating, it doesn't have the typical protagonist-centric plot twists.
It's a great read, unlike typical time-travel novels where the male lead is outstanding and has women all over him, which is a downer! I finished this book in one go!
This book is a breath of fresh air in the time-travel genre; I've only read the first two chapters so far. As a detective novel, its descriptions of crime scenes and interrogations are remarkably detailed, and the portrayal of the criminal's background enriches the characters. The use of facial expressions to reflect characters' psychology and drive the plot is also quite effective.
Overall, it's rare to find such a clean and pure book amidst the chaotic online world. While there are minor shortcomings in areas such as the details of the case, it is still an outstanding piece of writing.
After reading this, I thought about how I would live if I traveled through time. I might live a quiet, unassuming life as a native, inventing nothing, creating nothing, and disliking intrigue. I might even be changed by the times into someone I dislike. People always ask what the meaning of life is. Actually, life has no inherent meaning; just live it to the fullest, because the chance of starting over is zero.
I've finished reading it, and there are some shortcomings... I can't quite describe how I felt after finishing it... It's very different from other novels. Although I really disliked the male lead's helplessness, it was written very realistically. The male and female leads are hard to judge, it's hard to say... The atmosphere descriptions are slightly lacking, but it's still a rare gem. The relationship between the male and female leads and the ending somewhat affected the rating.
A good book, a unique time-travel novel without any melodramatic plot devices. It explores the extremes of human nature, from its weakest to its strongest, and the subtlest to its deepest emotions. You'll have to savor the experience for yourself!
It's fairly concise and doesn't drag on. The plot is also very tight, far better than typical padding novels.
The writing is excellent, with a captivating flow that keeps you reading. Once you start, you'll be hooked and want to keep going until the end. Thumbs up to the author!
It's not bad, but it was finished too hastily. Actually, according to the author's clues, this book has a lot of room for expansion, which would make the readers even more satisfied.
