im finally reading The Three Body Problem and it is not what I expected. mostly enjoying it though. unless the last 25% of the book absolutely sucks I'll go on to the next one.

It ends pretty great.

The second book is OK but not as good.

The third book whips serious rear end.

lol that post was supposed to go in the ufo thread whoops. glad to hear I should stick with it.

rei poo poo is funny, reminds me of my former employer holding some kind of open forum for gusanos during the Cuba frenzy last year and these people whose grandparents owned sugar plantations or whatever coming on camera and first doing pronouns before decrying the poor Cuban people, enslaved by the evil Castros for so long

Third book is rife with misogyny but it finally converts on the promise of a galaxy-spanning epic like the series always promised. I loved the third one.

I didn't much care for Luo Ji, which really put a damper on the second book. Although the reveal of what he's really been up to for like 80 years is amazing

The name DELAWARE was given to the people who lived along the Delaware River, and the river in turn was named after Lord de la Warr, the governor of the Jamestown colony. The name Delaware later came to be applied to almost all Lenape people. In our language, which belongs to the Algonquian language family, we call ourselves LENAPE (len-NAH-pay) which means something like “The People.” Our ancestors were among the first Indians to come in contact with the Europeans (Dutch, English, & Swedish) in the early 1600s. The Delaware were called the “Grandfather” tribe because we were respected by other tribes as peacemakers since we often served to settle disputes among rival tribes. We were also known for our fierceness and tenacity as warriors when we had to fight, however, we preferred to choose a path of peace with the Europeans and other tribes.

Many of the early treaties and land sales we signed with the Europeans were in our people’s minds more like leases. The early Delaware had no idea that land was something that could be sold. The land belonged to the Creator, and the Lenape people were only using it to shelter and feed their people. When the poor, bedraggled people got off their ships after the long voyage and needed a place to live we shared the land with them. They gave us a few token gifts for our people’s kindness, but in the mind of the Europeans these gifts were actually the purchase price for the land.

1st book was weird but still enjoyable.

2nd book introduced a philosophical concept i never even considered before and really scared me with its implications. So ya, really liked the 2nd one, but the girlfriend stuff was really strange and i dont know why its in the story

3rd kinda went nuts with the main concept from the 2nd but i also enjoy stories that go for it and this one certainly went for it

Overall a pretty cool series
