This isn't just a random review. I've followed this author's three books, and from the first one, I thought they were well-written, much better than many highly-rated books. However, the pacing is a bit slow, lacking many plot twists; it feels more like reading a local chronicle or folk tale. But that's okay, it adds depth and allows for reflection. The third book's vocabulary is increasingly Sichuanese, with lots of proverbs and idioms that are absolutely hilarious.
Self-evaluation: I'd give it a perfect score, of course, but the traffic Tomato (the author) gave me was just too little, practically nonexistent. To be honest, after writing all three books by hand, they've all failed to gain traction. It seems my writing style isn't good enough; I lack plot twists and climaxes.
