    3. I stayed up all night reading this "new type of satisfying novel," it was absolutely thirst-quenching! It was incredibly satisfying. While previous satisfying novels focused on the invincible martial arts, this one leans towards the literary aspect. It's especially enjoyable for those who don't understand programming, because even though they don't know it, the protagonist seems incredibly awesome. It mainly portrays a kind of invincibility—one that's imaginable, and another that I could relate to. In the literary aspect, this invincibility is based on knowledge.
