I have had a straight up embarrassing last couple years of reading. Promised myself I'd force quit any half book reading some time ago and I been stuck on the same book for a whole year. It's a bitch getting older cause your A.D.D. gets worse and worse of you got it bad like myself.

Hoping with some new changes in my mental health I can have to peace.71FRMugPliL.jpg.fd8486705242cd5698b3943b6bc09078.jpg

Just started this:

 

But I keep passing out after 3 pages so it's taking a while - night time reading isn't great

Plus listening to this in the car etc.

 

 But I'm starting to tire of this now that I know it's 7 books long

Just finished book number two of this series by Cixin Liu. 
 

Three Body Problem was the first book, and the most notable to the western world. It’s definitely a great read, lags at times, but the build up is essential.

 

The Dark Forest, however, blew me the fuck away. You trudge through this book like a battle. There’s times you want to stop and not finish and times you can’t put it down no matter what the circumstance. I found myself consumed in thought about

this dense novel through the entire duration of my time with it. Definitely the most impactful scifi read I’ve ever experienced. 
 

I’m taking a break from the story for a few months until I have the time to dive in to the final one (Deaths End).  
 

Cixin Liu is a master of his trade. Translation is also incredibly well done. Including footnotes throughout the novels to assimilate yourself better with any scientific or cultural points that may go over your head.

@diggityif you're starting to dip into Chuck P you should def give Choke a read. 

shit. for awhile I felt like the only person on the earth to have read this damn book. Any other person who liked to read that I talked to, hadn't heard of it.. I read it back in high school and god that is one of the weirdest, if not THE oddest book I have ever read beginning to end.
