DID NOT FINISH: 64%

I'll be honest, I think this is a me-thing. I don't think I like hard science fiction anymore. Like, the book isn't poorly written...well, maybe a little. The characters are so flat. The dialogue is so wooden that half the time, I can't tell who's talking. I eventually started skipping over the Three Body chapters because I just didn't care what was happening. And today I said I was going to give an earnest try to get from where I was to the end and I just didn't give a crap about what was happening anymore. Sorry. I know lots of people love this book, but it just wasn't for me.

5.0

I read this after watching the Netflix show and I was worried it would be very technical and sciency (like The Martian) but it wasn't and so it was easy to understand. I really enjoyed this because it asks questions I have been asking myself for quite some time. However I though the society of trisolaris seemed a bit underdeveloped and stereotypical. I expected something much more otherworldly but then humans can hardly imagine civilisations beyond what one knows.

This book had some strong elements, some of the sci fi elements were a bit out there. Overall enjoyable 😊

I appreciated that the earth resistance test readings looked correct. As an electrical engineer I liked that haha. I’m not so sure of OHS of maintainers dangling off a cliff though.
