50. 1050 流 Wandering in 1937 流浪在一九三七 Young October Person年轻的十月人Urban892k WordsOngoing A rare realistic War of Resistance novel on the Tomato platform. Its selling point is the absence of a golden finger, and its strengths are its harsh realism and emotionally compelling characters. However, the prose is rough early on, partly due to the author's writing ability and the platform's pacing. Best suited to readers who enjoy hard-hitting War of Resistance stories and don't mind a slow start. 4.9kReads8.7Score337Shelves
