    I really loved this book. The female lead is different from typical rebirth novel heroines; she's rather insecure, which really resonated with me because I'm also quite insecure. I felt a strong sense of identification with her; I cried for Wen Yu's experiences and laughed at Jiang Si's love. Plus, there were quite a few funny moments, so it wasn't boring. The writing style is slightly lacking.
