Proud Farm Girl With A Space

My Thoughts on Proud Farm Girl With A Space

"Proud Farm Girl With A Space" is quite the mixed bag, and after diving into it, I can see why readers have such varied opinions. It's a completed novel, but the ongoing translation means I'm experiencing it piecemeal, which colors my perspective.

First Impressions

The initial premise is familiar: a modern woman transmigrates into the body of an abused eight-year-old in ancient China, armed with a magical space and a helpful cat spirit. It's a setup that promises a satisfying blend of slice-of-life farming, business management, and revenge, but whether it delivers is another story. I was immediately curious to see how the author would balance these elements and if the main character could overcome adversity.

What Works Well

I appreciate the focus on the main character, Su Tang, building a life for herself and her younger brother. Many find her business acumen and cleverness appealing, especially how she uses her modern knowledge to her advantage. The "face-slapping" moments, where she outwits her adversaries, are satisfying, although some felt they took far too long to materialize. The initial focus on business development, with detailed descriptions of her products and marketing strategies, is engaging. Also, the relationship with her brother is a nice addition to the story.

Areas of Concern

Honestly, the pacing is a significant issue. Some readers felt the story dragged on, with repetitive explanations and overly detailed descriptions that padded the word count. The family drama, while initially compelling, can become tiresome and repetitive, with the heroine's revenge plans feeling delayed and anticlimactic.

Final Verdict

"Proud Farm Girl With A Space" is a novel with potential that doesn't quite live up to it. If you enjoy slow-paced slice-of-life stories with a focus on business and don't mind a sometimes frustratingly slow burn, you might find something to enjoy here. However, if you're looking for fast-paced action, satisfying romance, or a tightly plotted narrative, you might want to look elsewhere. I'd give it a tentative 3 out of 5 stars – it has its moments, but be prepared for a long and winding road.
