一朋友介绍了一本网络小说《草样年华》… 我想看是因为想弥补我在中国遗矢的时光。。。 我经常想象要是在中国上大学是什么样的。。。不过这本书是以男生的角度描写的。。。但多多少少应该还能传达一些意思吧。。这书写得挺沮丧无奈的。。。看完极郁闷。。。。 哎。。。能有本积极乐观的书让我读吗。。。 看得我对生活越来越没信心了。。。 算了。。。不就是一部小说吗。。。 不要太投入。。。 救命。。。。呵呵。。。 T.T edit 1:看完了草2.。。这部搞笑些, 但是又是跟草1一样的悲惨结局。。。 其实孙睿的文采不能算很好吧。。。可能出名是因为写得真。其实听说草1也是很幽默的。。。只是我没看出来,也许是因为我没经历过。。。又也许是因为我看得走马观花。。。把很多描述都略过,只注意剧情。。。 草2的lesson是,不要做一个喊狼的孩子。。呵呵。。。 其实男主人公在草2已经收敛了很多。。。但因为有前科, 还老是不说实话,被误会了。。。 希望草3能给个完美结局。。。 edit 2:把3也看完了。。。 不错,结局皆大欢喜! =D 只是那邱飞怎么老不长记性啊??!! 没事儿找事儿。。。 老是遮遮掩掩得让人误会。。。
