The subject matter is very novel. Keep up the good work, author! It's tasteless to read, but a pity to throw it away.
It's been a long time since I've read such a good story. It's original and realistic, and I love this slow-burn, gradual development. Looking at the comments section, a bunch of people who haven't even read the book are making baseless accusations about plot points that are only briefly mentioned and not yet written. It really shows what it means to be hurtful! Author, keep it up! Don't let them influence you! Looking forward to the rest!
The female lead is very realistic; she's a normal person with strengths and weaknesses (at the time, she didn't see herself as part of the group), but she gradually came to understand. The younger sisters also have their own strengths and weaknesses; they're not all bad or all good. They all seem like normal people, like the fourth sister, Yiru. People are all different; what you think is bad, someone else will always think is good. I hope they all strive for a better life.
"The Rich Daughter of a Minor Official's Diary: What to Eat in Summer" initially seemed like a mindless, lighthearted novel, but it gradually improved as I read on. The plot flows smoothly, the content is unconventional, and it tells some stories that really captivated me.
It's pretty good. I liked the story before she entered the palace. After she entered, the pace quickened considerably. Sometimes I even wondered if I'd missed something and had to go back and read it again. The author writes too fast; the virtuous concubine was demoted for such a trivial matter. The later pacing was too fast, making it a bit tiring to read. I still prefer the earlier storylines.
It's great! I much prefer stories of women legitimately rising through the ranks of officialdom and achieving success to those who disguise themselves as men. It's so satisfying! Moreover, the characters all have their own schemes, just with different perspectives. There's no overly strong female lead aura; the emperor and empress are half-appreciative and half-utilizing.
It's already caught up, and it's really good. I don't want the female lead to just get married and that's it. I want the Seventh Princess to be the Emperor, and our female lead to be the Grand Secretary.
So far, it's been incredibly good. At first, I thought Jiang was the male lead and that it was a formulaic story, but the author's writing style gradually drew me in. Whether it's family, love, or friendship, the characters are all portrayed very well.
This book is really quite interesting (though the setup at the beginning is a bit too long and cumbersome, almost making me stop reading). It's not the cliché story of the male protagonist bravely building his career and overcoming social class differences to marry the female protagonist for love; rather, it's an inspirational story of the female protagonist recognizing the man's cowardice, incompetence, and entanglement, overcoming adversity, and bravely climbing to the top of her career. 👍
Oh my god, I stayed up all night reading this, I just couldn't stop!! The author described the female lead's psychological transformation in such detail, from her originally peaceful and happy life to her later determination to rise above her circumstances and seek revenge. It made me scream with excitement! This is what a true female lead is all about!!
