It's a very old novel, and it's very heart-warming. It's one of the few books that doesn't involve love rivals, jealousy, misunderstandings, and a whole series of bad plots. Ordinary life is quite warm
The author's writing has a consistent style, the plots are quite good, and the protagonists all have some flaws. All the author's writings can give people a human feeling. At least it's not like most of the current novels, which give people the impression that two people are talking about this plot that seems to be arranged by God. There's no sense of weirdness.
My personal taste is to like some warm, ordinary novels. This is one of the rare romance novels that does not give a big golden finger to the heroine. The heroine is just an ordinary girl with a happy ending and a fairy tale world that is impossible in real life. It weaves the dream that every girl has.
All the novels written by this author have a pastoral beauty. Her plots do not have strong plot conflicts, but they are plain and simple. Maybe it is because the writing style is not enough. Some stories must have suspense and supernatural to create plot conflicts. If the author only chooses one theme, it will be really comfortable.
The author really doesn't want to write a mixture of supernatural and suspense. It's really uncomfortable to put the two themes together. If you only choose one, the writing is still beautiful.
