It's a decent story about a courtyard house. It's rare to find a book that focuses so intently on a single goal, without any of the usual scatological humor. I just don't like the modern setting; it immediately feels jarring. I've skipped through most of the current parts because I just can't get through it. Overall, it's not bad, just a bit short. I hope they maintain that level of quality in the future.
The author's own life experience is the most crucial factor in writing this book well. The story is generally heartwarming, and the plot device isn't overly overpowered. The protagonist's learning process and campus life are depicted quite realistically. It's highly likely the author has teaching experience.
A rare find: a novel without a system or spatial dimension, yet not mindless; it's very well written. The author's writing style is quite excellent; it's a gem among courtyard-themed novels. The author should keep it up!
The writing is plain and realistic. There aren't many flaws. The characters are closer to ordinary people. This is a departure from fanfiction. He focuses less on the characters in the courtyard house and mostly on the protagonist. Actually, after reading so many intense and satisfying stories, it's nice to read something this plain.
Excellent! Readers who like "Golden Finger System" should move on to online game novels instead.
A rare gem, well worth reading carefully.
Good, worth watching. Period novels are still best enjoyed by people who are a bit older.
An ordinary person's journey through time. A very simple description of life, capturing the characteristics of that era, suitable for slow reading. It's well-written and suits my taste, but unfortunately the score is too low.
It's very true; in the face of a great tide, an individual can never fight against the prevailing trend!
It's well-written, but there are too many discouraging parts in the beginning. Overall, it flows smoothly.
