  • Interesting concepts but incredibly flat characters that I did not care about at all, apart from Da Shi
  • I guess I prefer a more balanced character/plot driven book
  • Might pick it back up and just burn through it soon but it really started to feel like a chore about 3/4 in

Too much science explanation, zero character development and not that much plot either. Very disappointing considering how popular it is
