Sigh, it's a pretty good subject matter, but the writing is a bit immature in some places, the halo effect seems a bit too strong, and the transitions are a bit unnatural, feeling somewhat contrived (ps: I'm quite picky about what I read, don't mind). It's okay as a sweet romance novel; I definitely would have liked it before, but lately I prefer something a bit more mature...
These four stars are for Jiang Shibao. I really like this character. I won't go into details, but I've read up to chapter 58, and his background is still impossible to uncover. There are hints here and there, foreshadowing there, but they just can't recognize each other.
What I'm trying to say is, did I miss something or what? They broke up online, but then added each other back, right? Why didn't I notice that Jiang Shi is still Jiang Shi? And yet, right after the breakup, while still feeling emotional, she's already starting to like Jiang Shi again 🤨
The novel's subject matter attracted me, and although the plot is somewhat formulaic, I found it quite enjoyable and would recommend it. 👍 The author's writing style is a plus; at least for a 20-year veteran reader like myself, it kept me wanting to continue reading. 👍 As I watched further, I realized I judged it too early. The plot... Well, the author has a very imaginative mind and rather unique ideas; it's starting to feel a bit like a suspense film. 🧐
If you don't have a mouth, and you just keep saying "guess me" all day, will you?
So sweet! 🥺🥺🥺 Author, didn't you say you didn't need to use your brain? If you didn't, the plot twists would have burned out my CPU! And you still think it's good? Although the beginning was frustrating because I couldn't understand the plot, it became so enjoyable after it all fell into place. 💕💕💕 Keep up the good work, author! Looking forward to your new book!
As expected in the novel, there's no photo of the mother, and even if they meet her, they won't do a DNA test.
Before the bizarre plot unfolded in the beginning of this book, I felt like I was seeing the first book of this genre I ever read. I don't mean they're identical, but I just felt that connection. Some of the smaller plot points are similar to that book. Both are good, but this one leans towards a more mind-bending approach. Honestly, I felt that adding those elements made it less enjoyable.
Speculation: It's highly likely that Jiang Shi's personality as a child didn't fit the character of the scumbag in the story, so the plot erased him. Little Jiang Shi went to a hundred years later, and then the plot created a new Jiang Shi. In order to prevent the resurrection of Jiang Shi, the plot made the mother and son lose their memories to follow the storyline. Now we are on the line where Jiang Shi returns.
It's pretty good, but if you don't read the description, it's easy to get the wrong opinion 😅 Don't doubt it, it's me.
