Honestly, the writing style is really good, reminiscent of *Dream of the Red Chamber*, yet not overly complicated or lengthy. I only read half of it, and the female lead's sudden romantic subplot completely stunned me. What's going on??? Especially after recovering from her illness, she specifically went to the male lead's house, and seeing him "unable to hold back his tears," I only read half…
It's so good! There are so few novels about time travel in Dream of the Red Chamber that I can finish reading. I wish the author wrote more, and even a second part about married life with Daiyu would be great! 🤔
The story flows smoothly; I read it in one go, it was very enjoyable. I like this kind of Dream of the Red Chamber story where Lin Daiyu finds a good ending. But why did they have to hide Xueyan's identity? Wouldn't it have been better if she had been self-sufficient, redeemed herself, and found a good home?
Among all the novels in the Dream of the Red Chamber series, this one is quite good. It fits the era perfectly, depicting love and romance while maintaining propriety and moral principles, unlike others that simultaneously advocate for women under seven not to sit at the same table while also engaging in illicit relationships. Furthermore, the entire text flows smoothly. Personally, it's one of the few novels I could finish reading.
Well written! The author is intelligent but doesn't recklessly act based on knowledge of the plot. They're not a naive or overly compassionate person, and they act with a clear conscience within their capabilities. They reciprocate kindness with kindness. It portrays a relatively realistic human nature. While it may not compare to other works, it's quite good among Dream of the Red Chamber fanfiction.
I read the whole thing, and I have to say it's very well written. The characters are very well-developed, with wonderful personalities—generous and easygoing. I really like their way of speaking and acting. The ending of The Butterfly Effect was excellent, but it didn't cover the fates of the other twelve beauties; a brief explanation would have been enough.
The beginning was good, but the romance wasn't great; the male and female leads' behavior before they got together was a bit inconsistent with their characters. Also, the ending didn't clearly explain things to Daiyu and the others. However, the plot is tight and doesn't drag, and aside from the romance, it's written with delicate and smooth detail, making you want to keep watching. Thumbs up!
It's really great, very clever. The only downside is that the character's status in the epilogue is a bit too high. It doesn't feel like a small person's rise to power; rather, it's about the ugly duckling becoming a swan because it was always meant to be. This could be considered a flaw, but some readers might like it. So, consider it at your own discretion.
I stayed up all night to finish it 😘😘 and it was totally worth it. The plot was fast-paced, and I held my breath several times when Xueyan was cursing 😂 The female lead is clear-headed and hardworking; her skills in embroidery and cooking are all built up through hard work, not some kind of cheat code, which I really appreciate.
The book is very well written and the prose is excellent; it's definitely worth reading! Personally, I think it's already quite good that Xueyan married as Madam Xing's adopted daughter. Adding a royal heir later on is a bit cliché and unnecessary, like gilding the lily!
