    Reader note

    The author based this novel on their own life, using their real diary entries. It's not a rural story, and the author didn't categorize it during the writing process; it's a coming-of-age, school-themed novel. The female protagonist lived in a family that favored sons over daughters. During junior high school, she suffered from severe depression due to unwarranted beatings and even abuse from her mother. However, limited by her social status, she couldn't escape the control of her family of origin, struggling for half her life in a quagmire of suffering. The novel depicts the youth, school life, and everyday moments of the 1990s, capturing the anxieties and struggles of growing up. The junior high school content may seem naive; you can skip directly to the high school section.

    Just finished reading it. It's a disaster-themed novel. The female lead has no romantic partner, no reincarnation, no time travel, doesn't hoard resources, isn't a saint, and doesn't raise other people's children. The ending doesn't involve cultivation or advanced technology. I think I gave it a low rating; it was quite good.
