What is a truly good book in your mind? I think a good book should have two characteristics, namely readability and practicality. A truly good book should be able to reflect life in an interesting plot or trigger thinking, and be both profound and interesting.

Period-Era Fiction! Really Good Ones! No Pocket Spaces, They’re Too Unrealistic!
I don't know why, but lately I've been really into stories set in a bygone era, especially ones about transmigration. Transmigrating into a book is fine too. I read one about a soft-hearted freeloader and a green-tea schemer and really loved it. It felt so real, but it's still being updated. Ladies, any more recommendations? No stories where they get a pocket dimension and supplies like a supermarket, though.
Male-Oriented Period-Era Rebirth Fiction!
I'm so fed up. Every time I look for reborn stories set in a particular era, they're all female-oriented. It's so annoying.

The novel is very well written. It is both relevant to the era and gripping. It captures the readers' psychological ups and downs and especially empathizes with our era. The author's writing is so hard-working. I give you a thumbs up!
Memories of the Educated Youth Era. The text is clear and practical, making me want to read the next chapter after reading it.
The novel has a strong sense of life and a sense of the times, but as a reader, I deeply feel dissatisfied with the experiences of the male and female protagonists in the book. We will continue to read on what will be the fate of the protagonists in the future.
The content is realistic, the sentences are fluent, and the story is touching. It is really a good novel!
The history of that era reappears. The author feels as if he is personally there!
I am also an educated youth. I joined the queue in 1968 when I was 16 years old. I returned to the city in 1978 due to my background. I think the argument that re-education is necessary is correct. One by one
Fascinating, I want to hear the breakdown next time
I am also a person who came from that era, but we were lucky and did not go to the countryside. We were one of the four faces: face factory - (street factory), so I really enjoyed reading this novel and thought it was well written. I didn't want to stop reading it. I hope the author will continue it soon. Thank you for your hard work!
The sentences are fluent and the plot is touching. It's a good book and worth reading!
The content is quite substantial, but some storylines feel a bit too exaggerated, giving people a sense of unreality.
