I don’t know where to start
I had seen a review mentioning cliffhanger and with the novel being 1000 pages I thought at least the first major arc would be resolved especially since all the other reviews talked about how cute it was.
So before I say anything else let me manage the expectations by saying that the cliffhanger after 1000 pages is a major one in the main arc.
That being said I enjoy the overall story. I picked it up because the premise was ridiculous and I wasn’t disappointed. This guy was a hamster for 233 days. A cute and ridiculous hamster.
The translator did a really good job. One of the better translations I’ve read for using slang and converting it relevant things we’d understand in North America.
While i understand I’m reading a serialized web novel which means there can be added fluff, I think this story would benefit from a good edit to chop out 50% of the content. It’s long and I don’t think it needed to be. The core story is strong and doesn’t need a lot of the extra details. I hope I get a sequel translated sooner rather then later cause I need to see how it’s resolved

November 25, 2023Initially I liked this book. Absolutely hated the ending. It was too long (over 1000 pages) for very little payoff and a cliffhanger ending 😡 A lot more depth than the title leads you to believe- MC (as a hamster) ends up investigating who stole his designs. Being reincarnated 8 months to before his death and the butterfly effect made it intriguing but a little convoluted trying to figure out what’s happening. I actually felt annoyed and angry after finishing this book because it felt like several things were never resolved and I was pretty invested in Yan Jin and Xiao Yu’s relationship. There were some sweet and funny moments but unfortunately lots of boring moments. I could forgive the extra details if it had a satisfying ending 😩

Alright first review of the new year, let's make it a good one.
For starters, this book had absolutely no business being as good as it was with a title like that. When I first saw this book I thought that there was no way it could be any good, and then I saw the page count and I just could not imagine what on earth this book was going to be about. Low and behold for several reasons only slightly out of my control I ended up actually reading it. Let me tell you I was surprised by how good this book was and how fast of a read it was. It didn't read like most other books and in fact, read much more like a light novel even though it was well over 1,000 pages. This may have something to do with it being a translated work from China and light novels being a Japanese format, but I don't know. There was so much going on in here that I just cannot tell you because it would be a complete disservice to the book. Just know that it is really good. Oh, and be prepared for a massive cliffhanger at the end.

Meio Meh. Chatinho, tem uns momentos fofos mas não vale a pena não. Muito comprida para pouco conteúdo, os 233 dias, realmente parecem 233 dias porque é chato e enrolado. O casal é bem mais ou menos, não vou mentir, tinha partes que eram empolgantes, e me divertiam. Mas não vale a pena, os capítulos são muito grandes para só enrolar. Não foi um bom passa tempo 😐. Mas falou sobre design, o que eu nunca vi ser abordado em nenhum livro ou novel, então espero que pelo menos abra portas para falarem sobre profissões diferentes, além de protagonistas que são sempre CEOs, médicos, ou estão fazendo faculdade ainda.
