   I recommend this newly completed book. It's fast-paced, a simple story of rising to wealth, without any special abilities or cheat codes. The family is harmonious, and it doesn't involve any palace intrigue or anything like that—those kinds get boring after a while. It's not some typical farming novel where the writers just write sloppy, unappealing stuff. [Facepalm]

    This is a very ordinary farming novel. The female lead knows in advance that there will be a famine, so she lives with the male lead in the deep mountains. Hunting, farming, and cooking are all part of the everyday life of the story. There are no extraordinary characters or imperial power involved.
