    Reader note

    I highly recommend this new book about courtyard houses. Although it doesn't have a rating, it's definitely a breath of fresh air in the courtyard house genre! It's free of hostility, cowardice, overly sentimentalism, and extreme convoluted plots—just pure, satisfying reading. The inventions and historical context are absolutely realistic and stand up to scrutiny. The characters are vividly portrayed without any deliberate attempts to smear or distort the truth. It's very down-to-earth! A rare gem! It might seem a bit timid on the surface, but the real critiques are brutally honest! It incorporates many inside jokes, original scenes, and even poems and songs written by the author—it's fantastic!
