I Own a Magical Island 我有一座神奇的岛
(First of all, this story has no romance. It's a fantasy tale with a farming focus, following one person's journey of growth. Thanks again for reading!)

Peng Lai laughed it off. But when she opened the door of her shabby rental apartment the next moment, what lay beyond it took her completely by surprise. She really had

- 404 Things That Happened When I Was a Kid 我小时候的事 I really don't have much talent for writing novels. I simply pieced together people and events from my childhood, along with scattered fragments of memory and everyday trivialities, as best I could. It's like sewing a patchwork garment out of scraps of floral fabric: from a distance it looks colorful and busy, but up close the seams are obvious, and it never quite comes together. Even so, I weighed every word and poured my passion and love into it, because I wrote it for my daughter. 49Reads—Score—Shelves
