   Reader note

   You must read this book "Memory Hackers: The Code of Truth"! This work is purely suspenseful, without frightening horror elements, but focuses on brain-burning memory puzzles and identity puzzles. The story is set in a future city where memories can be encoded and modified. The protagonist Lin Mo is a memory restorer. After a mysterious commission, he finds himself involved in an amazing conspiracy about the authenticity of memory. The most attractive thing about the novel is the philosophical thinking it raises: If memory can be tampered with, does our identity still have meaning? The entire book is like a well-designed intellectual maze, with clues cleverly scattered and multiple reversals layer upon layer, but it never relies on jump scares or gory scenes to create tension. The settings of "Memory Furnace" and "Sea of ​​Memory" are very imaginative, and the connection between the protagonist and the mysterious silver-eyed girl is even more fascinating. If you like brain-burning but not scary works such as "Inception" and "Memento", this book is definitely for you!

   Overall, it's quite good-looking [take a closer look], I really like the younger brother who controls the older brother [shy], and of course I also like the male protagonists [give my heart]. The plot is also quite compact, and the suspense part is particularly interesting [Read carefully]. It just matches my reading interests, and it's hard not to love it [Shy]. The length is also just right, so that it won't make me feel too long and unable to start when there are other entertainment projects (this is very important to me). As for why it's four stars, I can't really describe it in good words, but I just felt a little weird after reading it through [staring]. Maybe it's because I've watched too much in the entertainment industry before, and I'm a little tired (no offense, please forgive me🌚🌝) [facepalm].
