My Thoughts on Guidance

"Guidance" is a novel that certainly left an impression. It's a blend of slice-of-life sweetness, heart-wrenching drama, and a touch of romance, all wrapped up in a story about overcoming adversity. While it wasn't a perfect read, the emotional depth and the characters' journeys kept me invested.

First Impressions

Initially, I was drawn in by the premise – a story featuring a blind protagonist and a female lead burdened by her parent's past. The setup promised a narrative filled with challenges and the potential for heartwarming connections, and in many ways, it delivered.

What Works Well

The strength of "Guidance" lies in its emotional resonance. I found myself deeply moved by the hardships faced by both Lin Qingle and Xu Tingbai. The novel doesn't shy away from depicting the harsh realities of prejudice, abuse, and societal judgment. The author paints a vivid picture of their struggles, making their resilience all the more inspiring. I especially appreciated the emphasis on the characters' growth and the realistic portrayal of their separation, which gave them the time and space to mature individually. The unwavering love and devotion displayed by Xu Tingbai were also a major highlight, adding a layer of sweetness to the often-difficult narrative. The novel also served as a potent critique of societal biases and the tendency to judge individuals based on the actions of others.

Overall, I'd recommend "Guidance" to anyone looking for a story that will tug at your heartstrings and leave you contemplating the complexities of human relationships and societal biases. It's not always an easy read, but the emotional payoff is well worth it. While I wouldn't call it a perfect novel, it's definitely a memorable one.
