I smashed through 3 body problem, loved it. I tried the audiobook a year or so ago and it was far too dense, had to give up quite early. I think it is translated from Mandarin too so it can seem a bit clunky. The tv series I find a lot of fun though. I don't think you need to pay toooo close attention, just enjoy the ominous spooky vibe!

I don't mind janky translations, should read what they did to Vampire Hunter D after the first two books. Man, that was a jank-ass translation. (I'm pretty sure it was VHD, but it was some Japanese anime novel (not a manga) I grabbed from the library 20 years ago haha.

My partner found a streaming site, so I don't need to sub, I may put that on my other screen today while I colonise Mars haha
