Looking for Truly Good Books. No Immature Stories!
I've read too many books, and most lose me after a few chapters. The writing is so immature, as if it were written by a kid with only a middle-schooler's thinking skills. I want to read good books, truly good books!

The author writes very well, and the writing is very close to real life. Lu Ze, a programmer working in Shanghai, is enveloped in the city's humid air on the anniversary of his breakup—his old apartment building on the eighth floor without an elevator, his stalled projects, and the old message on his phone, "I've landed," all feel like an infinite loop in his code.
I just wanted to browse casually to kill some time, but I got more and more hooked. The author is more than just a reader 💕 After his breakup, Lu Ze was trapped in the dampness of Shanghai. The musty smell of the old apartment on the eighth floor, the stalled projects, and the old message "landed" on his phone—every detail felt so real, like watching his own life unfold.
This book has a powerful, lingering impact. It builds upon a deeply relatable realism to create delicate emotions, allowing every reader to find a reflection of themselves within its pages. While tragic endings in online novels often leave readers feeling unsatisfied, it's precisely this lingering effect that imbues the tragedy with meaning.
I only read the last few chapters. Seeing that the author killed off the male lead felt a bit angsty, so I'll save it for later when I feel like having some heartbreak. Even though I've only read a few chapters, it seems like a good book!
Looking forward to the next installment. I'm not a computer science major, but the details seem quite realistic and refined. However, the descriptions of overtime and projects in the article brought back painful memories of my three years of graduate school; I almost developed PTSD... Frankly, I loathe that kind of life. I hope that after graduation, I can go home like the protagonist, just having a place to lie down would be enough.
Green plums in the countryside, a childhood dream; a small flower shop, bringing you simple joy. University brothers, deep friendship, company collaboration, walking together with you. My first love in college was full of dreams, but we parted ways. My love for you remains unchanged. A kindred spirit, young and impetuous, risked his life to help you and preserve your innocence. Please, please update more!
The writing is delicate, philosophical, and captivating!
It's down-to-earth and unpretentious.
It's well-written, unlike some generic books that are all written by AI.
It really reflects my current mood. The protagonist isn't pretentious; he shares the same thoughts as me—wanting to go back to my hometown and live a slower-paced life.
