A Space in the Famine Years

A very realistic novel, the author writes very well, it's really good. Although the loss of her mother, brother, and sister-in-law was cruel for the protagonist, that's life; there aren't always happy endings. Difficulties and setbacks highlight the simple beauty of life later on, and contrasts make us cherish our loved ones more.

It's a sad story. As a bookworm who loves happy endings, I couldn't stop crying while reading it. The female protagonist seems to have a husband, son, and a happy family, but she lost her mother at a young age, her father remarried, and in her youth, she lost her brother and sister-in-law, her only family. In middle age, her father's favoritism forced her to sacrifice everything, even for her dog.

It was so good, it made me cry so many tears!!! The female lead dedicated her whole life to her child… It's such a pity that they killed off her older brother and sister-in-law, they were such good people 🤦🤦🤦🤦😢😢😢

This book is worth reading. The author calmly recounts her life, and although it is short, life is precisely found in its ordinariness.

It's well-written, but personally, I felt too depressed after reading it; perhaps it's because I lack life experience. Life is already too hard; I don't want reading a novel to be so depressing (novels are something I use to escape reality). Although, to be fair, it's still worth recommending.

This book doesn't have any cheat codes. It's all heartwarming everyday life. Unlike typical transmigration/rebirth novels where everything is blissfully happy, the female lead faces the loss of her mother, her father's remarriage, and the deaths of her brother and sister-in-law—all moments of heartbreak.

The text describes a somewhat resentful and realistic life in the most understated tone, and those sad points really hit the heart. In my memory, the mother is portrayed as very gentle, and the parents' relationship is very deep. My brother provided a warm harbor during those difficult days, and he provided a different kind of spiritual fatherly love.

It's great (♥∀♥), it's just a shame about the female lead's mother, brother, and sister-in-law.

This book is worth reading. It doesn't have a flashy plot; it simply and plainly narrates one's own life. Everyone approaches each day with a positive attitude, sincerely and kindly treating those who are good to them. Perhaps this is what life is all about.

I read it in one go. It's very well written. At first, I thought the female lead's father wouldn't remarry. The novel describes her father as loving her mother very much. Who knew he would accept remarriage so easily? I feel so sorry for the female lead and her brother.
