Reading general reasoning** is like solving puzzles. However, when I read "White Night Walking", I found that Keigo Higashino is not committed to this, and his ambition is to push the dark side of human hearts and human nature to the extreme. The protagonists in "White Night Walking" are burdened with shocking and painful sins, but we can understand what they did again and again.
Because at the beginning of their growth, everything is falling apart. The distortion of the original family has an impact on a person, and it can create hatred that never turns back and love that leaves almost no inch. Keigo Higashino constructs a complete black, throwing the reader into absolute coldness:
The brightest day is the night, and the brightest hope is non-existent.

Fang Siqi's First Love Paradise", Taiwanese author Lin Yihan, shortly after the publication of this book, she hanged herself in her house and left this world. I just started reading the title of the book and mistakenly thought it was a romance**, but it wasn't, it was unexpectedly real and helpless sadness. The content will not spoil the content.
After reading this book, I felt more deeply resonant than uncomfortable. I was depressed during that time, plus my own problems. Suddenly, I walked up to the steps at night and hugged myself and cried silently, and it was then that a second voice appeared in my head.
Go to hell! "It's always waiting for an opportunity to eat away at me. I went back to the classroom and pulled out a pocket knife and prepared to self-harm.
Luckily, my table mate stopped me. I won't read a similar book a second time. It's not that I don't want to read it, it's that I can't read it anymore.

Let me recommend a copy of Yu Hua's "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood". When I was young, I wandered a lot of places, so I never had my own bookcase, and sometimes I was even troublesome, and when I went to another city, the books were left in the original city. When I go to another city, I buy some books, mainly literary books, of course.
I have been maintaining this habit for many years, calming down and sorting out my thoughts, only to suddenly realize that I actually have a book that I have stayed in many cities, but I still subconsciously buy it every time I go to a city.

I recommend a recent biography of Napoleon, written by Emil Ludwig. It was once heard that Napoleon represented an era in Europe and was the god of war. So recently there was a strong interest in Napoleon.
The Biography of Napoleon was written by the famous German biographer Emil Ludwig, who vividly displayed the charm of this era and Napoleon's personality charm and cultural prowess in front of readers.

Its publication has a specific political, economic and cultural context.

If you read these two books, you will be intrigued and embarrassed all day long, and you can't read it anymore.

Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.
I couldn't finish it, I was almost halfway through it before giving up. If it wasn't a library book, then I should have thrown that damn thing at the wall. Nineteenth-century artificial spelling and grammar gave me a headache and drove me mildly dyslexic.
There is a footnote that lasts for five and a half pages. I've been waiting for an actual conspiracy to happen, but it's all talk.
Just because a book is a "bestseller", has received rave reviews, has been translated into many languages by Kirigin, and has been adapted into a movie or TV series, that doesn't necessarily mean it's actually of any use.
NowadaysPublishers are afraid to scare the "next J.K. Rowling" and miss the next big thing, so much so that they will weed out any clichés regardless of the level of learning.
Some of the books that I don't like or at least find mediocre include:
This is our struggle by Elizabeth Warren. Or, I prefer to call it "Ignoring Hume's Law: The Book".
"Daniel X" by James Patterson. A general plot with a bland writing style.
Dead Soldier by Joe Schreiber. Boring one-dimensional characters and can be ** plot. If you love Star Wars and crave a decent ghost, that book doesn't have to be a bad one, but I recommend checking it out through your local library rather than buying it.
Fifty Shades of Gray by El James. When you make a thriller that portrays other frightening situations in a positive way and spreads the word about the boys (or should I say the schoolgirls?). What happens when you get an error?
You will find this "romantic"** grotesque. Even third-graders can spot every crime against grammar, phonological pairing, and common sense.
God in the Ruins, by Leon Uris, is a mess. The whole chapter can be been, and this book would be better. Then there's proofreading, or no proofreading.
At one point he got the name of Stanford University wrong. He also wrote "subordinate perjury".
Vince Flynn's American Assassin is nothing short of rubbish. There is no character development at all. The good guys are black and white.
There are no shades of gray. Pedestrian writing is at best. I read another book by Flynn, but it was just as bad.
I don't know how popular he is.

I have read a lot of books, some of them are very pretended, and the content of the edict is very tragic, and there are three books that make me very unhappy after reading them, they are "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood", "The Loneliness of Prime Numbers", "Human Disqualification", after reading it, I feel very sad, and feel sorry for the protagonist in the book.
-
Alive", "Disqualified in the World", "One Hundred Years of Loneliness and Dry Posture", "Camel Xiangzi", "The Biography of the Hulan River" Because the historical background of these books makes me feel depressed, so I don't feel very happy.

One of the books I read, The Shawshank Redemption, had a big impact on me. It's about a big banker who is framed and imprisoned in Shawshank Prison, and then wins his freedom through his own step-by-step schemes. After a lot of suffering, he finally escaped from prison and was reborn on the other side of the Atlantic.
The book "The Shawshank Redemption" brings me positive energy, every time I feel lost and confused, and I have no sustenance, I will open this movie and open the book. After reading it, it is still very inspiring, although it may not be the first shock, it will still encourage me. This book is my spiritual food.
I was particularly impressed by one episode, and I remember it every time. When Dufren escaped from prison, in Mexico in the Atlantic, driving his car on the side of the ocean by the sea, the sunset was very good and beautiful, his hair was gently blown up, although it was no longer a young face, it was still a very spiritual smile. At that moment, I felt really handsome, not only on the outside, but also on the inside.
On the other side of the ocean, he sailed through suffering and was born again.
It's like everyone has different feelings about each scene, just like in "Titanic", I think one of the most impressive scenes is. When Rose is rescued, he looks at the Statue of Liberty in a drizzle under his coat. At that moment, I was really touched in my heart, it was not so sad, it was not so atmospheric, it felt very quiet and beautiful.
There is a sentence in "The Shawshank Redemption" that has been praised by many people, and I also think this sentence is very touching. "Some birds are destined to be closed. Because they shine with the light of freedom.
Every time I read this book, I am still very touched. This book should stay with me for the rest of my life.

When I was in my first year of junior high school, I had the pleasure of reading Rhonda Byrne's "The Secret". This book is about the powerful law that governs life, and by knowing and understanding this law, we can create a happy and fulfilling life. This law can bring us the happiness, joy, success, reputation, ...... we wantAll your thoughts can be sent to the earth for relayering, and then reflected back through some kind of reflected wave.
It's its own energy. Imagine working hard to achieve. In fact, it tells us to be firm in our inner thoughts, keep repeating, and practice them with actions until they are realized.
In this way, you can do all the things you want to do, you want to succeed, then keep repeating the idea in your head, make a list of ideas, and use actions to accomplish these ideas, this is your power, you can control it to guide you to realize your own ideas.
When I read this book, I really felt that I could have whatever I wanted, just like magic. In fact, it is a positive and optimistic idea, and the important thing is whether you have worked hard and changed it for the sake of the idea. Your goals should be clear and your will should be firm enough.
You will be pleasantly surprised at the changes it brings to you and the joy it brings you.
It's more about letting you have a heart that yearns for beauty and keeps working hard for it. I remember that in the film of this book, there is a man who wants to own a car, and he is at home imitating sitting in the car, and he imitates the sound of the car starting, and then he ends up speeding down the road in the car. Although the process is not introduced, we can imagine that it was by imagining that he felt the joy of being in a car that made him stick to his idea of having a car and finally make it happen.
The process is our own effort, but we have motivation because we believe that the outside world can perceive our ideas and help us achieve them, so all we feel in the process is joy.
The reason why this book had such an impact on me is that it was because of the great changes that happened in our family that year, which made me feel like an abandoned child. Once trapped in a sad world and unable to extricate himself. And this book gave me the right direction when I was sad.
It makes me yearn for beautiful words, and I appreciate every day of life positively and optimistically, and I also see hope, happiness, and strength in it.
We imagine our own success, imagine our joy after success, demeanor after success, life after success, will we be more eager for success? It may seem far away from us, but it is also very close. In fact, "Secret" is not a secret, it actually brings us joy, optimism, happiness, confidence and strength.

The book that I think has had the greatest impact on my life is Da Bing's "Be Good, Touch Your Head". After reading this book, I re-established the direction of my life and even updated my worldview and values.
Good, Touch Your Head" is Da Bing's second book, his first book is "They Are the Happiest", and Da Bing will have a very right book published next, I am really looking forward to it. Da Bing has his own unique writing style, and his books are all unique and humorous and touching, sometimes affectionate, sometimes cynical.
My love for Da Bing's book, in addition to the love for the text itself, also has a lot of likes from the author Da Bing himself. He's a host, he's a writer, he's a backpacker, he's a shopkeeper, he's a silversmith, and so on, a lot of identities. He is a person with a lot of experience and a lot of heart.
I met Da Bing through "Good, Touch Your Head", and Da Bing changed me through "Good, Touch Your Head". My biggest dream in life was to go to a university, enter a government unit, get an iron job, and live my life in peace and stability but without any waves. It was the characters in Da Bing's pen that made me see the vastness and richness of the world, let me see a different way of life, and saw the happiness that I can have by sleeping in the open air, which made me re-examine myself and re-establish my goal, that is, to see infinite scenery and meet many interesting people in a limited life.
I am now learning from Da Bing and his friends in the book, to live a life where dreams are horses and can live anywhere. I go out to travel, I go out to see the scenery, I value the inner experience, I yearn for it, and I try to enter my poetry and the distance.
This street has been walked countless times, and I still pass by it today. The coffee shop on the corner of the street is filled with an intoxicating fragrance, but this fragrance is mixed with a touch of bitterness, like love. If it weren't for this bitterness, maybe it wouldn't be so fascinating. >>>More
Picture Xiangyin, buy old cattle, climb the hill to ask someone to pinch (搊 means to push hard)" is a very witty dialect, which makes people laugh. Dialects that contain simple wisdom are often good at using simple metaphors to illustrate the truth. The farmer wants to plough the field, in order to save money and be greedy, he buys an old cow whose bones are about to fall apart, but not only can he not plow the field, but it needs to be pushed by someone to go up to the high point. >>>More
Comfort is an atmosphere for me. You can be very comfortable doing things, you can also be very comfortable when you are resting, going for a walk by the lake, climbing a mountain to inhale oxygen, can cause appropriate comfort, if you are extremely comfortable, most of the time it is with friends, it is the kind of friend who can talk about everything. When I solved most of the things by myself, it was especially comfortable to read books and chat with friends. >>>More
Turquoise associated mine, many people think it is not worth it, but as an alternative beauty of turquoise, I like it very much!
Westward Journey. This is a very successful but very niche reinvention of "Journey to the West", and there is also a comic adapted from the same one. >>>More
