   1. It's really powerful, but too realistic, sometimes making it hard to watch. Worth reading. 2. It's quite good, but I found it a little boring towards the end. Needless to say, I started reading it a long time ago and found it great with no major flaws. 3. It's really, really good, a flawless book. I spent a few hours catching up. The world-building is complete and interesting, which is also great. The writing is very good. 😄😄😄😄

    Although there's no rating yet, I think it will gradually become popular. The novel depicts the battle of wits between a nurse and a female tyrant against the backdrop of a shady medical environment. The plot is intricate and full of suspense. Some scenes are particularly captivating, such as the one where the author deliberately imitates other people's husbands by keeping an urn of ashes by their bedside.
