The Tree of Hope in the Apocalypse

The beginning was almost unreadable; it spent ages describing how beautiful the women were, how delicate and graceful they were, how much they loved wearing pretty dresses, and how much they missed their husbands… Is this the end of the world?! Which is more important: beauty, strength, or convenience? Where does a mother's strength come from when she's raising a child? Utterly speechless.

It's well-written; a family fighting zombies. The only problem is the abrupt ending.

The female lead and those around her are sometimes too saintly; they only survive because of her "female lead halo," otherwise they would have died countless times over! The female lead's mother's explanations are very vague, and the female lead's revenge isn't thorough. At the very least, she shouldn't let her scumbag father benefit from her actions, right?

Is this one of Liu Ye's earliest works? I've only read the first dozen or so chapters, and the female lead seems very immature, which reflects the author's own state of mind while writing this. Take a look if you're bored.

Each one is worse than the last.

I dislike Tang Tang's character. She doesn't learn from her mistakes, and even in the apocalypse, she's still so simple-minded and easily trusting. It's just ridiculous. 😑

It was abandoned, and many things were left unresolved.

The rating is low. At first, I wasn't inclined to read it because of the low rating, but I'd finished all the author's other books and this was the only one left, so I decided to give it a try. And it really is good! The rating should be higher.

This is the third book by the author, after reading his two previous ones. It's a very heartwarming post-apocalyptic story. At first, I found it a bit hard to get into the first few chapters because I thought it was a little bland and trivial, but the more I read, the more I couldn't put it down and wanted to finish it.

The author's writing is always excellent, but the ending of this book felt too rushed. I wanted at least a few hundred more chapters—I didn't want to read enough!
