    Reader note

    This book is highly recommended. If you're looking for something to read, give it a try; you won't regret it. It's a female-centric novel where the female lead doesn't have a system or any special abilities. She relies on her own wisdom to rise from a supporting female character to the main character, challenging the laws of nature and ultimately achieving the triumph of human will over destiny.
