It’s well written but it’s kinda trauma porn for Liu Song so it feels a bit over the top—very dramatized. But otherwise it’s fine. More setting u the story and whatnot

A stellar opening in terms of writing. Charlotte is too sweet and nice it’s unrealistic that she’s so perfect but—oh no—she’s blind! It is very engineered to appeal to human tenderness which can feel a bit cheap.
