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.

My favorite period drama/rebirth novel of the year! The female lead, Liu Shiyan, is so captivating—calm, intelligent, and daring, she's not love-struck and her focus on her career is incredibly cool! The depiction of 1980s is incredibly realistic, from the social interactions in the countryside to the business opportunities in the county town, and then to the later expansion of her business…
Who understands?! This 1980s rebirth novel is absolutely to my liking! The heroine Liu Shiyan's journey to success is incredibly satisfying. Without any special advantages, she relies entirely on her intelligence and hard work to turn the tables. Reborn in a rural village in Northeast China in 1980, she becomes a helpless farm wife.
Come, author, repeat after me: I solemnly swear: From today onward, I will never stop updating. I will not watch dramas, travel, or get sick. I will not play games or write filler articles. I will be strictly self-disciplined, cherish time like gold, be indomitable, strive hard, pursue excellence, forge brilliance, find joy in writing, be tempered into steel, and live up to my readers, my youth…
This is a very good period novel. The author's writing style is smooth, and the characters are vividly portrayed. The novel vividly depicts the "speculation and profiteering" and "production teams" of the 1980s. It has a strong sense of pacing, with each plot point tightly connected, making it a very engaging read.
This novel, *Reborn in the 1980s: Breaking Free from the Cocoon of Business*, is absolutely captivating! As a loyal reader of Tomato's works, I've read countless rebirth stories, but this one is truly exceptional! The protagonist, Liu Shiyan's, journey of revenge is both realistic and satisfying.
After staying up all night to finish this 1980s rebirth novel, I can only say that Tomato (the author) understands us all too well! Packed with exciting moments, fast-paced, sweet romance, and a rich plot, this book offers multiple flavors in one, making it a truly delightful surprise of the year!
This is a really good historical fiction novel. I quite like the female lead's personality. I've never had time to read a historical fiction novel before, and this is my first one. I feel that the author's writing style is really good, and the romance between the male and female leads is also quite nice. 👍
Every character in the novel is incredibly memorable, making me feel very connected to them. The author skillfully uses emotion to profoundly depict their inner struggles and conflicts. I hope the author continues to create and bring us more stories!
The author's writing is so captivating! The rural Northeast of the 1980s is portrayed with remarkable authenticity, and the characters' dialogue is incredibly vivid! The pacing is brisk, the underdog story is written cleanly and efficiently, making it a very enjoyable read. The author's skill in seamlessly blending farming and business warfare is truly impressive!
This is a fantastic rebirth-themed historical romance novel. I've always loved historical fiction and have read many in this genre, but this book truly amazed me. The female lead is incredibly well-developed—calm, intelligent, and daring, she's incredibly capable and adventurous, and her ability to take down awful characters is exhilarating. She's also incredibly skilled in her career.
