The Unsolvable Us

Notice: I am preparing a new novel, so updates to this book will be irregular.

In today's world where transformation has become an element, this is a rare novel that still centers on the theme of transformation. The novel setting of dual transformations and the extensive depiction of the protagonist's psychological changes both inherit the characteristics of classic transformation novels from the early 21st century and improve upon them. Through it, I can see the golden age of transformation novels 15 years ago, and the many excellent works born from that era, such as *Zijing* and *Yemingzhu*, instead of the current landscape filled with anime, moe, and rampant transformation fanfiction. Now, let's talk about the plot and structure of this novel. During the time the characters live together after their transformations, the author...

Finding a novel like this, filled with anime and manga-style romance novels, is truly rare. The characters' actions and emotional details are refreshing; just a few words are enough to make you imagine what kind of person they are, what they are doing, and what they are thinking. It wasn't until later that I learned the author was a woman. Initially, I thought she was a seemingly cold but emotionally sensitive man, like Mu Qian. However, this also leads to a problem: some of the emotional complexities might be difficult for straight men to understand, such as the relationship between Jiang Chen and his "white moonlight"...

Having read transformation novels since the "Night Pearl" era, I was overjoyed to find this one. I have a habit of checking for logic when reading novels. Aside from the transformation itself, as someone once said, novels that are too realistic are hard to accept, while those that are too unrealistic are unreadable. Novels that are half-real and half-fictional allow for better immersion. Another author also said that the biggest problem with transformation novels to date is their repetitive formula: the protagonist starts with a tragic backstory, orphaned, and the 20-30 year old protagonist's intelligence and emotional intelligence are no different from an elementary school student, making it difficult to continue reading. Mu Qian's personality is exactly what I like—mature and rational. When he encounters the transformation, he doesn't...

Unlike fictional worlds and time-travel/transformation stories, transformation in the real world and resolving the conflict between the original and new identities is a classic theme in traditional transformation novels. Looking at traditional transformation novels, authors have generally revolved around this theme, each developing their own compelling storylines. In contrast, contemporary transformation novels often use transformation as an element rather than the main plot. For example, in *The Blooming Selaginella*, Cheng Xiaonan, after changing her identity, still can't resist attending her high school reunion and joining the motorcycle club she used to form; in *Twin Love*, Long Juan and Hongyan reunite with their parents and become entangled with Beibei—the protagonists of these transformation novels, despite their physical transformations...

I have to reread it every now and then. This is truly one of the best "transformation" books on Pineapple Bun in my opinion. It's a pity...

It's been two years since I last visited the graves.

Similar to "The Bird of Winter," it was very good and enjoyable, but unfortunately, the author stopped updating it due to personal reasons. Readers who enjoy "bian wen" (a type of fictional story) have to admit that it's a niche genre, and sometimes you even have to read it secretly, even if you haven't done anything wrong. Writing bian wen is like the early days of Bilibili—it's purely out of love. Under various regulations, it's indeed difficult to guarantee quality and make a living. The one star I deducted represents my attitude towards this story being abandoned. I once said that if this book could be completed, it might become a classic, and I'm willing to wait for its completion. I hope that in my lifetime I can write a concluding blessing for this novel.

I've rewatched it so many times... When will we finally see Ji Hesheng get a beating from his parents, both male and female?

Tomb sweeping, the author is dead.
