    Reader note

    The author based this novel on their own life, using their real diary entries. It's not a rural story; the author didn't know how to categorize it at the beginning, but it's likely a youth/school/adolescent story. The female protagonist lives in a family that favors sons over daughters. During middle school, she suffered from severe depression due to unwarranted beatings and abuse from her mother. However, limited by her social status, she couldn't escape the control of her family and struggled for half her life in a quagmire of suffering. The novel depicts the ups and downs of youth, school life, and the anxieties and struggles of growing up in the 1990s. The middle school content might seem naive; you can skip directly to the high school content.
