The statement "A conflicted person needs a guiding lover" is truly embodied in this book. The author's writing is also very delicate; it's easy to cry along with little A-Yang when you see her cry 🥺
I haven't finished reading it yet, but I couldn't wait to write a review. My personality is a bit like Wen Yang's; we're both filled with inner conflict and struggles in life and relationships. I struggle to escape conflicts with my family. I understand Wen Yang's feelings very well. I don't know if my understanding is correct, but I found resonance. The male lead is my type—a guiding lover.
The characters are well-developed, with detailed psychological descriptions. The female lead's complex personality is portrayed in a way that feels both natural and believable, allowing the reader to empathize with her. The male lead, while outwardly appearing perfect, also has his imperfections.
This is a realistic, gradual, yet engaging and high-quality article. Those lacking patience might find it difficult to follow, but it realistically portrays the joys and sorrows of long-distance relationships (especially international ones). It's a very real situation; many obstacles need to be overcome.
I've read so many novels on Douyin (TikTok). This is my first time writing a book review. The part about long-distance relationships reminded me of my own nearly nine years of marriage, filled with mostly separation. So, I can understand Yangyang's struggles and occasional breakdowns. The writing is excellent, a slow-burning story, with An's unchanging tenderness and love.
Why is the rating so low? I highly recommend it; the emotions and characters' psychology are nuanced. It's very sweet. Love can change a person; love needs to be expressed; being in love means learning how to love another person, learning to express both your good and bad sides. You shouldn't compromise or give up your career for love. Love is about being equals, mutual support, going to each other, and considering each other's needs. Highly recommended!
I think it's a very good book. The stories the author writes seem very sentimental, yet they also feel like a slow, gentle flow that naturally unfolds. The stories are all small, but I found myself shedding tears without realizing it. It feels very emotional, but I also think it's because the author's writing is so touching. The small stories contain great emotions.
I stumbled upon this book by chance and started reading casually. After a few chapters, I found it so enjoyable that I started reading again from the first chapter. The more I read, the more I loved it. I love the author's writing style and the characters; the prose flows gently like water, perfectly matching my own style.
Reading this book requires patience; it's written so delicately that I felt like I could really connect with their lives. I've been reading it for a long time now and I've even developed feelings for it 😭 I'm still a little reluctant to say goodbye. I hope you parallel worlds will be happy!
This is a fantastic book. You can feel the author's dedication. It's been a long time since I've had the patience to finish a book. I also wish Yangyang and Zhou Tan eternal happiness in their parallel universe, that all lovers will eventually be together, and that everyone will be happy!
