A review by jillie
The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu
Did not finish book. Stopped at 71%.
DNF @ 71%
I never want to rate DNFs, but this time I absolutely would have if I had the option. 2 stars.
Hard science is not my thing & had that been the only flaw, I would’ve been fine. Honestly if you stick through it, everything does start to make sense. However, the characterizations were atrocious. My final straw was when my favorite character did something so heinous I was done. Not being able to root for them anymore ruined any motivation I had to continue.
I made it over 70% & could barely even tell you where it’s going from here or who the characters in the next books will be.
And yeah, all the religious parallels/hatred wasn’t for me either.
