    "I hesitated, I turned back to face my sliver of hope, but still no one paid attention." The story opens by drawing us into a world filled with regret and sorrow. The female protagonist, Shen Nian, is both humble and persistent in love. She deeply loves the male protagonist, Lu Lingchuan, but this love seems fraught with hardship and suffering from the very beginning. "Later, a thick fog rolled in, and you said you loved me very much, but why is your love even fainter than the fog, so faint that I can't even see it clearly?" Shen Nian carries a heart full of love, yet she seems unable to touch Lu Lingchuan's fickle heart. In the bustling hospital, the registration lines are long, and Shen Nian's lonely figure is hidden among them, unnoticed. She stands in the abyss, struggling desperately, but no one can save her. Lu Lingchuan may have also felt affection for Shen Nian, but faced with the entanglements of reality, his love becomes hesitant. Shen Nian is like someone chasing a glimmer of light in the darkness, never receiving a response. "My body lay in the snow, blooming red, which became that man's lifelong pain." When Shen Nian finally lost heart and chose to leave resolutely, Lu Lingchuan suddenly realized that he had lost the most important person in his life.

    I read the first book in my dorm (it was also the first angst-filled novel I ever read), and I cried my eyes out. Before reading it, I told one of my roommates I wanted to read an angst-filled novel to see how it was, and if I liked it, I'd recommend it to her. While reading, I cried uncontrollably, tears streaming down my face 💔💔. This book is very angst-filled, but I think I won't write a summary; you'll understand it better if you read it yourself and experience it for yourself. Because if I write a summary, you'll know where the angst is, which will affect your reading experience. The second book is a collection of short stories by author Su Ta; you can't go wrong with any of his books. The writing and content are both excellent, and it's also very angst-filled, completely different from the first book. You can choose according to your own needs (the first is set in a school, the second is set in adulthood). I recommend both books. These two books really left a deep impression on me; even now, I still try to hold back my tears when I talk about them to others 😢😢😢

Nor can they claim that the tragedy they belong to is free from the constraints of chance and the peculiarities of individual personalities. And they are even less able to reflect deeply and express the —Reads—Score—14d adds

    I don't know if these three books will be able to drive you half to death with their intensity, but the update speed is definitely a bit torturous.
