A Girl Starting Tomorrow

When reading, please don't make assumptions about an author's intentions beforehand, and then jump up and down in anger when the author doesn't follow your expectations, criticizing the author for not properly labeling the story and for applying double standards. Sci-fi and superpower elements are just part of the story; they're there from the beginning. If you can't accept even a little bit of them, don't wait until the killer appears.

My time has returned to that old house from before. The author writes so well!

The October night seemed very cold. Sitting outside the hotel, I lit cigarette after cigarette, watching Xiaojing. After finishing a pack, I walked across the street to the supermarket to buy more. I felt a little dazed. I bought a pack of Lotus cigarettes; I had very little money left. After lighting it, the first puff of smoke filled my lungs, and I realized there were cigarettes in the world that tasted so good. I couldn't help but wonder if my life would be like that? Will I be praised, or will it be like the smoke I exhale? The first twelve years of my life were carefree; I seemed to laugh everything off, so optimistic and cheerful. But in my final year of junior high, confusion seemed to be the main theme. For the first two years of junior high, I was consistently in the bottom ten of my class. Then, in my final year...

Having just finished my previous book review, I felt like discussing the various characters, including Anjing. Interestingly, contrary to her name, she's actually quite afraid of quiet. Anjing persevered for sixteen chapters, achieving a commendable second place in the new trilogy (first place went to Chen'er with 101 chapters, third to Xiaoyao with 13 chapters, and last to Wanqing with 1 chapter). Returning to the main point, Anjing's transition to her new identity, like Chen'er and Xiaoyao, involved a clear process, from initial caution to later acceptance—a shift in mindset. However, even with her changed identity, she maintained her original self...

It's finished? I only just started reading it, and I'm so happy to have finished the whole thing already!

2009 was a year of dramatic change. Looking back at that era from today's perspective, some might think, "Ah, yes, that's how it was back then," while others might think, "Oh, so that's what that era was like." I belong to the latter group. This demonstrates the author's rigorous and earnest attitude and simple, authentic language. There's no deliberate emphasis on expressing emotions, yet the emotions have already seeped into the reader's fingertips… Simple language, delicate strokes—the words leap off the page and become visual. The words construct edifices, showcasing the face of that era; those accustomed to the conveniences of the present might find it hard to imagine…

[A product of a brain short circuit] It was that summer, after the Dragon Boat Festival, that the days grew hotter and hotter. It was the end of the entrance exams, and everyone was extremely relaxed, including me. My wife, Zhu Ying, and I strolled leisurely through the streets, not worrying about when we would return. That day, my wife and I thought of our friend from our school days, Wang Xinru. Wang Xinru was a very shy girl on the outside but with a very rich inner world; her imagination was as vast as her heart. As usual, we had lunch at a restaurant by the Imperial Road, and then went to her house. Wang Xinru's house, to me, was still the same. As always, it had that unique...

The new book, "True Feelings for Me," tells the story of three versions of myself together, set in 2005.

Hooray! The story of Ginniang's daily life got better and better with each chapter. Is Anjing's quietness due to the contrast with the mischievous Ying'er? She seems so soft and cute, or perhaps she's more like an ordinary student than Wanqing and Yaoyao, even though she has superpowers. Compared to Wanqing's mature, slightly older woman persona and Yaoyao's bright, lively, and academically gifted nature, Anjing is much more ordinary. Her ordinary love, ordinary life, and growing old make her seem more like a normal person. It's much more relatable than Yaoyao becoming a big star or Wanqing relying on a futuristic robot.

Like the first twenty years of my life, it was both sweet and bittersweet.
